Abstract
Writing programs are facing tremendous pressure to address the issue of language difference, not only in the US but also across the whole world (as Bou Ayash’s chapter also shows). Our classrooms are becoming more and more multilingual and multidiscoursal (Canagarajah 2006b; Matsuda 1999; 2006) with the constantly expanding trend of globalization—facilitated by the advancement in digital technologies—the rapidly increasing movement of immigration, and the rise in global commerce and trade. In the United States, as Paul K. Matsuda (1999) and Preto-Bay and Hansen (2006) have said, the number of multilingual students has grown exponentially in recent times.
