    Several new digital tools are devoted to supporting thesis writers. Whilst doctoral thesis writing is a well-studied issue, much less is known about thesis writing within shorter Continental European 3-year undergraduate programmes. To equally study and support thesis writing, we created Thesis Writer (TW), a bilingual (English/German) genre-sensitive tool that offers dissertation writers a word processor with additional support at the conceptual, rhetorical, structural, and organisational level, as well as collaborative writing and feedback functionality. The aim of this presentation is to provide both illustrative data and a synthesis of TW’s affordances in structuring student/supervisor interaction when setting up the first thesis project. One practical concern of high significance is the reaction of supervisors to the tool, as it is essential that supervisors not only accept the tool and its philosophy, but that they actively integrate it into their supervision practices. Preliminary observations have shown that they are creative in cultivating their own ways of using TW when developing a thesis structure. In a case study of ten students at a Swiss University, we observed writer-supervisor interactions during their initial and first follow-up BA thesis meetings, each lasting 60-90 minutes. The meetings were conducted and recorded virtually, to determine how they came to an agreement about the topic, and how they ensured that they both understood it in the same way. This kind of “conceptual alignment” involves negotiated intentions and expectations on both sides when creating a basic proposal structure supported by TW. In adjacent qualitative interviews, students and supervisors were asked about their experiences with this procedure and about their reactions to TW. The results show a broad range of interaction patterns and considerable divergence in the way TW is used.

    In this contribution, we draw on methodology from key logging and writing analytics to offer a fresh look at formulation processes. Key logging captures the inscription processes of writers and by analysing and visualizing them, we can draw inferences on decision making strategies during formulation. At the current stage of our work, we are experimenting with qualitative and quantitative evaluation methodologies. Many of our insights concern formulation patterns that seem typical for digital writing and which make it necessary break new theoretical ground relating formulation to technology use and thinking. Our access point to writing processes is the analysis of texts written within Thesis Writer, a tool that allows writing processes to be tracked visually through a time slider, and to be analysed incrementally and statistically. We follow a writing analytics approach that draws on ongoing writing projects stretching across several months rather than artificial writing assignments for research purposes. We selected nine bachelor theses for analysis. Approximately 2,500 logging data events per text with timestamps and incremental text versions were gathered, processed and analysed in an R environment. We present time slider visualizations of text development and provide qualitative and quantitative evidence demonstrating that thinking and writing in digital contexts connect differently than previously assumed. Our data also demonstrates that writers use far more words than remain in final texts. Revision appears to outweigh planning and idea development as writers are caught in continuous re-writing and rearrangement cycles. We see a tendency away from linear writing to patchwork writing, where chunks of words are placed on screen and rearranged until idea development stops. Text progress also appears connected to growing lexical density, showing that new words needed to develop a text are added in successive revision cycles, and that idea development necessarily connects to this lexical enrichment.

    “What do people want to do when they write − and what do they actually do?” (Perrin 2003, 825). This question in the introduction to an issue of the Journal of Pragmatics has contributed to shifting the focus of writing research from cognitive to social and pragmatic aspects of text production, forgrounding the relevance of writers’ pragmatic competence. Text processes and production are influenced by writers’ cultural and biographical background, (professional) role in the respective communicative setting, the concrete communicative situation, as well as the communicative patterns of the community of practice (Wenger, 1998). At the same time, text evaluation and text impact depend on readers’ perception and involvement. These processes, driving and driven by language use in sociocultural contexts, trigger the topics and foci of research in pragmatics (Verschueren 2001). Research so far in this field has provided evidence of pragmatic competence as a key sub-competence of writing and writers (Konstantinidou, Hoefele & Kruse, 2016). In our panel, we focus on pragmatic aspects of writing in specific sociocultural context, social settings, and situations of language use. We investigate both the development and teaching of pragmatic competence in multilingual and professional settings. By doing so, we reflect on the relation of pragmatic competence with the quality of both writing processes and text products and discuss the challenges of measuring pragmatic competence using automated assessment methods.

    This chapter explains why practices of writing are key for managers and leaders. It draws on two action research case studies that illustrate the needs for and benefits of empirically based knowledge on writing in management and leadership roles. An overview of the state of research shows that, besides multitudes of analyses of managerial genres as final products, only little research has been done to understand and improve the dynamic processes of writing in the field. The chapter concludes that future directions of research must include investigating how the rapidly increasing amount of written management and leadership communication comes into being and how its quality can be improved through management education. The structure of the chapter takes the readers from the topic’s relevance (Section 1) to the fragmentary state of research (2), the two case studies (3, 4), and suggestions to close the research gap through a dynamic approach (5).
