In such studies, the students or "vicarious learners" (VLs) are positioned as indirect participants…

Writing instructors can offer technology-mediated feedback rather than traditional methods, a practice supported by current research, for managing feedback processes and improving uptake. Consequently, this study…

This study examines how supervisory feedback facilitates doctoral students' academic literacy development in their situated practice of writing for publication (WFP). Multiple-sourced data collected from one supervisor and his four doctoral students were analyzed, including drafts with written comments added, feedback dialogues around text…
