Misguided Expectations: EFL Teachers' Attitudes Towards Italian University Students' Written Work.
Hargan, Noeleen
Language and Education, v9 n4 p223-32 1995
Reviews assumptions encountered in connection with the teaching of writing in English as a Second or Foreign Language at university level. The article argues that the central issue is a problem of cross-cultural communication rather than a strictly pedagogical one and that teachers' expectations, not students' behavior, must change.
