前言
It is well.known that writing doctoral dissertation in English is an uphilltask for a wide majority of non-native speakers of English;however,it isrelatively less well.known that this task is equally arduous and painful for evennative speakers of English,or for that matter,speakers of any language.Inaddition to the linguistic difficulties,most writers of research dissertations oftenface difficulties of handling conventions of writing these rather longish pieces ofresearch reports. One of the major problems many of these researchers face is the mismatchbetween“what they promise”in the introductory sections and“what theydeliver”in the final sections of their theses.The research reported in this workdeals with this important issue,which is often ignored in most research writingundertakings.It is an issue which is rarely,if ever,explicitly raised,and isoften not even implicitly understood by the participants in this scholarly activity.In this respect,this book undertakes to demystify one of the most importantissues in doctoral research writing. The study reported here is informative,comprehensive,and insightful.Itfocuses on the research writing experiences of a number of Chinese writers of research dissertations。the trials,tribulations,and sometimes rewarding experiences of some of them,including a number of teachers who supervisethem.The book,in my view,should be of great value to all those interested in research writing,either as non-initiated novice writers,experienced teachers or supervisors of doctoral work.

章節(jié)摘錄
As illustrated in the above excerpt,Rogoff’S notion is built upon theassumption that performing the act or interacting along with the practitionerSguidance should lead the child or the newcomer to the next goal of learning.Itappears to echo VygotskyS(1978)conception of zone of proximal development(ZPD)and scaffolding(see 3.2.2.of this chapter).The central idea ofguided participation is that learnerscognitive development is inseparable fromtheir social environment which affords them the context of participating in socialactivities of various forms with the guidance of more skilled practitioners whosupport them and facilitate their skills in using cuhural tools(Stetsenko,1 999).In such a theoretical lens,learning is conceptualized as the process ofguided participation whereby learnerscognitive development Occurs throughengaging in culturally organized activities with more experienced partners.Theconception of guided participation further extends the concept of socialinteraction by emphasizing the complementary roles of children and caregivers,novices and mentors and makes significant contribution to our understanding ofthe developmental process of learning though it fails to highlight the concrete characteristics of cultural tools like how individual learners internalize these tools while they are engaged in guided participation.
