Description
Book SynopsisObserving writing: Insights from Keystroke Logging and Handwriting is a timely volume appearing twelve years after the Studies in Writing volume Computer Keystroke Logging and Writing (Sullivan & Lindgren, 2006). The 2006 volume provided the reader with a fundamental account of keystroke logging, a methodology in which a piece of software records every keystroke, cursor and mouse movement a writer undertakes during a writing session. This new volume highlights current theoretical and applied research questions in keystroke logging and handwriting research that observes writing. In this volume, contributors from a range of disciplines, including linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, modern languages, and education, present their research that considers the cognitive and socio-cultural complexities of writing texts in academic and professional settings.
Trade Review"Overall, these concluding notes, as well as the book as a whole, show great potential of development for what has proven to be a fast-growing, exciting area of research." -Marco Condorelli, University of Central Lancashire, in Written Language and Literacy, Volume 22:1 (2019)
