The data consist of audio/video-recorded lectures, observational notes, semistructured interviews, and written artifacts collected from 50 participants who differed in linguistic, cultural, and educational backgrounds; teaching experience; and languages of instruction. The study suggests that chalk talk, namely, writing out a mathematical narrative on the board while talking aloud, is the central pedagogical genre of the undergraduate mathematics lecture classroom. Pervasive pedagogical genres, like chalk talk, which develop within global disciplinary communities of practice, appear to override local differences across contexts of instruction. Better understanding these genres may lead to new insights regarding academic literacies and teaching. }, keywords = {activity system, community of practice, genre, globalization, mathematics, pedagogy, rhetorical genre studies}, author = {Artemeva, Natalia and Fox, Janna} } @inbook {601, title = {What Are the Characteristics of Digital Genres?

The aim of this study is to examine the differences between fast and slow tendencies in Methods sections in terms of their internal, cognitive discourse organization. Two small corpora, each consisting of thirty Methods sections (one for each of the two groups of subjects), are analyzed in two ways. First the corpora are rater-analyzed for their use of the organizational features of a cognitive genre model for textual structures (see Bruce, I. J. (2005). Syllabus design for general EAP courses: a cognitive approach.

The findings of the study suggest that {\^a}{\texteuro}\~{}fast{\^a}{\texteuro}{\texttrademark} Methods sections that report research in the physical sciences generally employ a means-focused discourse structure, and {\^a}{\texteuro}\~{}slow{\^a}{\texteuro}{\texttrademark} Methods sections in social science reports tend to employ a combination of chronological and non-sequential descriptive structures. The study concludes that learner writers may benefit from access to the types of general, procedural knowledge that these discoursal structures employ.

In today\’s educational climate, it is more important than ever that we prepare our students to be effective and competent writers who can write for a variety of purposes. How can we teach our students the skills they need to be successful while also fostering an appreciation for the process, craft, and art of writing?

Drawing from sound theory and research as well as on many years of experience in the English classroom, Fran Claggett and colleagues Joan Brown, Nancy Patterson, and Louann Reid\ have created a writing teacher\’s resource to help both new and experienced teachers sort through the often complex issues in the teaching of writing. With innovative, teacher-tested strategies for creating a classroom in which students thrive as writers, Teaching Writing: Craft, Art, Genre is a must-have addition to every writing teacher\’s library.

This paper reports on our approach to the analysis of genre recognition using eyetracking. We focused on a collection of different types of email which could represent different datasets, such as, mailing lists for calls for papers, newsletters, etc. We found that genre analysis based on purpose, form and layout features is potentially effective for identifying the characteristics of these datasets and we have highlighted some of the new important features of genres. The results from a pilot study showed a clear effect, with an interaction between the email texts and the visual cues or features perceived and also the strategies employed for the processing of the\  texts. We found, in our small sample, that readers can determine the purpose and form of genres and that during this process some readers do skim the shape of the e-mails (form).

This paper offers a proposal for some preliminary research on the retrieval of structured text, such as extensible mark-up language (XML). We believe that capturing the way in which a reader perceives the meaning of documents, especially genres of text, may have implications for information retrieval (IR) and in particular, for cognitive IR and relevance. Previous research on \&$\#$39;shallow\&$\#$39; features of structured text has shown that categorization by form is possible. Gibson\&$\#$39;s theory of \&$\#$39;affordances\&$\#$39; and genre offer the reader the meaning and purpose - through structure - of a text, before the reader has even begun to read it, and should therefore provide a good basis for the \&$\#$39;deep\&$\#$39; skimming and categorization of texts. We believe that Gibson\&$\#$39;s \&$\#$39;affordances\&$\#$39; will aid the user to locate, examine and utilize shallow or deep features of genres and retrieve relevant output. Our proposal puts forward two hypotheses, with a list of research questions to test them, and culminates in experiments involving the studies of human categorization behaviour when viewing the structures of emails and web documents. Finally, we will examine the effectiveness of adding structural layout cues to a Yahoo discussion forum (currently only a bag-of-words), which is rich in structure, but only searchable through a Boolean search engine.

Contemporary genre theory is probably not what you learned in college. Its dynamic focus on writing as a social activity in response to a particular situation makes it a powerful tool for teaching practical skills and preparing students to write beyond the classroom.

Although genre is often viewed as simply a method for labeling different types of writing, Deborah Dean argues that exploring genre theory can help teachers energize their classroom practices.

Genre Theory synthesizes theory and research about genres and provides applications that help teachers artfully address the challenges of teaching high school writing.

Knowledge of genre theory helps teachers:

Because genre theory connects writing and life, Dean\’s applications provide detailed suggestions for class projects\—such as examining want ads, reading fairy tales, and critiquing introductions\—that build on students\’ lived experience with genres. These wide-ranging activities can be modified for a broad variety of grade levels and student interests.

Prior research, however, has not investigated the joint influences of these factors. The current study extends previous research by empirically investigating the managerially relevant interactive influences of these factors within the context of the motion-picture industry. For example, should producers of more familiar genre movies, such as dramas and comedies, feature popular, but expensive, stars?

The findings are consistent across the two time periods and reveal that for more familiar genre movies, star power and the valence of critics{\textquoteright} reviews have less impact on the movie{\textquoteright}s performance in the market. In contrast, for the less familiar genre movies, stronger (vs. weaker) star power and more (vs. less) positive reviews have positive influence on the market performance.

The paradoxical dependence of genre histories on historically accidental acts of naming and on transcendental critical imagination is demonstrated by the Chinese western, a little-understood genre that has become a major part of Chinese-language cinema over the past two decades. After the genre was proposed in 1984 by the Chinese film theorist Zhong Dianfei, as a realist reaction against the ideological excesses of the Cultural Revolution, its ambiguous status as a Hollywood import quickly became a proxy for larger cultural battles over China\&$\#$39;s place in an American-dominated international cultural system. Moreover, despite assurances by Zhong and other critics that the genre was not susceptible to Hollywood influence, the production history of the genre from the late 1980s to the present demonstrates a pattern of generic influence and eventual fusion that tracks Chinese state-owned studios\&$\#$39; evolution from subsidized propaganda organs to participants in a globalized entertainment industry.

(2011) show, when they detail genres that exist {\textquotedblleft}alongside{\textquotedblright} mainstream scientific
genres. These genres{\textquoteright} existence is dependent upon their association with established
scientific media and genres, such as the scholarly journal and the scientific research
article. Moreover, these genres reach a wider audience, including policymakers and
others involved in the community, with a mission of influencing the direction of a
discipline or field. Bringing together these ideas, Carolyn R. Miller and I (forthcoming)
extend the notion of parascientific genres to account for emerging genres of science
communication online, suggesting that the rhetorical work parascientific genres do has
been partially moved into more public (or, external) spheres of scientific discourse.
This dissertation focuses on the erosion of boundaries between internal and external
science communication to explore the possibilities for parascientific genres{\textemdash}and looks
specifically to citizen science as a site of inquiry. While some attention has been paid to
citizen science, it is often devoted to scientist-driven cases, where discursive acts are
governed by rhetorics of professionalized science. Participant-driven citizen science
can depart from these conventions, I maintain. And interesting examples of
parascientific genres, or genres that demonstrate characteristics of both internal and
external science communication, are available for examination.

Questions of symbolic classification have been central to sociology since its earliest days, given the relevance of distinctions for both affiliation and conflict. Music and its genres are no exception, organizing people and songs within a system of symbolic classification. Numerous studies chronicle the history of specific genres of music, but none document recurrent processes of development and change across musics. In this article, we analyze 60 musics in the United States, delineating between 12 social, organizational, and symbolic attributes. We find four distinct genre types\—Avant-garde, Scene-based, Industry-based, and Traditionalist. We also find that these genre types combine to form three distinct trajectories. Two-thirds originate in an Avant-garde genre, and the rest originate as a scene or, to our surprise, in an Industry-based genre. We conclude by discussing a number of questions raised by our findings, including the implications for understanding symbolic classification in fields other than music.

Although the class in advanced public speaking is a mainstay of communication
instruction, little scholarship has addressed the nature of expertise in public speaking or
the instructional techniques by which it is imparted. The present study conducted
in-depth interviews with 23 active college teachers of advanced public speaking, inquiring
specifically about their goals, curriculum, and classroom activities for the class and
the ways in which these were distinguished from the basic speech class. Qualitative
thematic analysis yielded six distinctive themes: (1) extensive speaking performance and
individualized critique, (2) learning additional genres, (3) learning additional theory,
(4) intensive study of models, (5) extensive self-analysis, and (6) sophisticated processes
for analyzing speaking situations. Two broad pedagogical tensions, both with classical
roots, attend these issues: (1) the tension between teaching theory and facilitating
practice and (2) the tension between teaching forms of speaking and teaching rhetorical
processes.

Scholars of rhetoric and writing have long recognized the mediated nature of rhetorical action. From Plato{\textquoteright}s early indictments of writing as enemy of memoria to Burke{\textquoteright}s recognition of instrumental causes to recent analyses of digital mediation (Haas 1996; Spinuzzi 2008; Swarts 2008; Ittersum and Ching 2013), the study of meaning-making refuses one-to-one, transparent theories of communication, instead recognizing that there{\textquoteright}s more to rhetorical action than humans. This article follows the trail of Haas, Swarts and others, arguing that analyses of mediation uncover much about human motives, digital communities and rhetorical action. I argue that technologies often function as rhetorical genres, providing what Miller characterizes as {\textquotedblleft}typified rhetorical actions based in recurrent situations{\textquotedblright} that occur in uniquely digital spaces (159). Working from sites of participatory archival creation and curation[1], I argue that invisible rhetorical genres operating at macroscopic levels of scale are central to shaping individual and communal activity in sites of distributed social production. To support this claim, I investigate two applications {\textendash} a content management system (CMS) called Gazelle and a bittorrent tracker called Ocelot {\textendash} to demonstrate how largely invisible server-side software shapes rhetorical action, circumscribes individual agency and cultivates community identity in sites of participatory archival curation. By articulating CMSs and other macroscopic software as rhetorical genres, I hope to extend nascent investigations into the medial capacities of digital tools that shape our collective digital experience.

The volume \“Genres on the Web\” has been designed for a wide audience, from the expert to the novice. It is a required book for scholars, researchers and students who want to become acquainted with the latest theoretical, empirical and computational advances in the expanding field of web genre research. The study of web genre is an overarching and interdisciplinary novel area of research that spans from corpus linguistics, computational linguistics, NLP, and text-technology, to web mining, webometrics, social network analysis and information studies. This book gives readers a thorough grounding in the latest research on web genres and emerging document types. The book covers a wide range of web-genre focussed subjects, such as: \• The identification of the sources of web genres \• Automatic web genre identification \• The presentation of structure-oriented models \• Empirical case studies One of the driving forces behind genre research is the idea of a genre-sensitive information system, which incorporates genre cues complementing the current keyword-based search and retrieval applications.

The blog illustrates well the constant change that characterizes electronic media. With a rapidity equal to that of their initial adoption, blogs became not a single genre but a multiplicity. To explore the relationship between the centrifugal forces of change and the centripetal tendencies of recurrence and typification, we extend our earlier study of personal blogs with a contrasting study of the kairos, technological affordances, rhetorical features, and exigence for what we call public affairs blogs. At the same time, we explore the relationship between genre and medium, examining genre evolution in the context of changing technological affordances. We conclude that genre and medium must be distinguished and that the aesthetic satisfactions of genre help account for recurrence in an environment of change.

This paper takes the country music song and video \‘\‘Honky Tonk Badonkadonk\’\’ as a case study of the deeply ambivalent potentials of hybridity in contemporary culture. \‘\‘Badonkadonk\’\’ was celebrated by some as joining hip hop and country music to create a \‘\‘hybrid,\’\’ a type of cultural text valorized in various intellectual and popular discourses as both embodying and advancing progressive social values such as antiracism and antiemperialism. This essay, however, uses close reading and an account of \‘\‘Badonkadonk\’s\’\’context within country music\’s generic selfconstruction to expose the conflicted nature of the text\’s hybridity, which includes substantial reactionary and essentialist elements. \‘\‘Badonkadonk\’\’ caters to American culture\’s growing embrace of hybridity while continuing twentieth century efforts to downplay country music\’s racially hybrid roots.

This instance highlights problems in concepts such as hybridity and cosmopolitanism. This includes the crucial distinction between consciously hybrid works of art or culture, and the less consciously hybrid objects that emerge \‘\‘naturally\’\’ from the mixing of cultures. The rise of selfconsciously hybrid culture and the celebration of hybridity have been partially enabled by contemporary academic theories of hybridity\’s progressivism. The essay concludes by highlighting some of the strategic and philosophical shortcomings of such selfconscious hybridism.

This article examines one of the most popular computer games\ The Sims\ to consider whether the shared understanding of the game\&$\#$39;s \"rules\&$\#$39; can be understood through the concept of genre. The main argument is that the genre\ being used is \"real life\&$\#$39;. The game\&$\#$39;s creators are assuming the players share with them, and with each other, an understanding of real life, which can be transposed into the game world. The article explores this notion of a real-life narrative that is shared, by considering the ways in which family and other relationships are both conceptualized and played out in the game. Whilst real life as genre\ is problematized here, the tensions and conflicts of contemporary real-world conceptualizations of family and other relationships do appear to be represented in the game. What is interesting then, given this, are the ways in which players negotiate the gameplay. The article concludes by suggesting that players are active agents negotiating both the game\&$\#$39; s version of real life, and their own real-world experiences.

Drawing on bibliometric methods (citation analysis and content analysis) and literature review, this paper offers some critical reflections of how genre analysis has been used, applied, expanded and refined to address the challenges of a culturally and linguistically diverse academic and research community. The first reflection opens with a brief review of the privileged status of English as the international language of academic and research communication to discuss contrasting scholarly positions that regard {\textquoteleft}Englishization{\textquoteright} as either {\textquoteleft}help{\textquoteright} or {\textquoteleft}hindrance{\textquoteright}. The second reflection focuses on rhetorical move analysis, an aspect of genre theory that to date has been little considered outside ESP/EAP traditions of genre analysis. It discusses how move analysis, in cross-fertilization with various theoretical/analytical frameworks, can add to our understanding of the way L2 academic English writers accomplish meso- and micro-rhetorical manoeuvres. The final reflection touches upon the impact of internationalization and research assessment policies on the current knowledge exchange, dissemination and publication practices to emphasize the value of the Swalesian task-based approach and advocate a multiliterate rhetorical consciousness-raising pedagogy. The paper concludes with some suggestions for future genre research and proposes ways of articulating cogent language instructional intervention to empower members of bi-/multiliterate academic and research communities professionally.

This article turns to genre theory{\textquoteright}s recent explorations of uptake, broadly defined as the ways genres interact, as a resource for sketching a pedagogy of shuttling between genres. Using uptake, I intend to reconceptualize multimodal compositions as a means of participating in rhetorical ecologies that consist of transactions between genres instead of thinking of remixes as an end in themselves. In this article, I first define the concept of uptake in detail and discuss its use in rhetorical genre studies. After further illustrating uptake through an analysis of transactions between YouTube parodies and the 2005 German language film Downfall, I discuss existing scholarship in multimodal composition that draws on genre but not the idea of uptake in order to lay a foundation for a pedagogy that highlights the links, feedbacks, and rules that coordinate genres. My aim in the last section is to sketch possibilities for how teachers and students can deploy the concept of uptake as a rhetorical tool to strengthen their awareness of genre and multimodality. In doing this, I hope to reposition multimodal projects as beginnings or midpoints that lead to students{\textquoteright} emersion into public discourse rather than culminations or end goals in themselves. Integrating studies of uptake into writing curricula in this way will help students to make sophisticated rhetorical decisions in the age of media convergence.

A \‘shreds\’ video combines existing live music concert footage, predominantly including a famous
male rock guitarist or guitar based rock group, with a self-produced overdubbed soundtrack. The
result is a musical parody that exists in an intersection between production and consumption and
works as a within-genre evolution. The shred is controversial and its most popular instalments
have been pulled from YouTube on claims of copyright infringement. This paper examines shreds
as a form of multimodal intertextual critique by engaging with the videos themselves, as well as
audience responses to them. As such, the applied method is genre analysis and multimodal semiotics
geared towards the analysis of intertextual elements. The paper shows how prodused parody
exists as a co-dependence between: (1) production and consumption; (2) homage and subversion;
(3) comprehension and miscomprehension; and (4) media synchronicity and socioeconomic dis/
harmony. The paper also discusses how shreds can be interpreted as tampered-with gender
performances. In conclusion, it becomes clear that the produsage of shred videos is part of \‘piracy
culture\’ because it so carefully balances between the mainstream and counter-culture, between
the legal and the illegal, and between the commoditized artefact and networked production.

The paper discusses genre theory in the field of e-Democracy. A framework for analysing communicative genres related to four stereotypical e-Democracy models is suggested. A case study of a web based discussion board in a municipality illustrates the implications of applying the genre lens to the e-Democracy research and practice, with lessons learned to considered in the future efforts on e-Democracy. Based on observations from the case, a theoretical concept of autopoietic cybergenre is suggested and its potential significance for future e-Democracy initiatives is addressed. An autopoietic cybergenre, such as a web-based discussion board, includes inherent capability for meta-communication enabling continuous structuring of the purpose(s) and parts of the form of the genre in question itself.

This article has a double scope. First, we consider the dynamics
inherent in the emergence of genres. Our view is that genres emerge relative
to two sets of constraints, which we aim to capture in our double feedback loop
model for the dynamics of genres. On the one hand, (text) genres, or text types,
as we will interchangeably call them, emerge as a variation of already existing
text types. On the other hand, genres develop as a response to the negative
constraints or positive affordances of given situations: that is, either the {\textquotedblleft}exigencies{\textquotedblright}
of the situation or the new resources available in a situation.
Accordingly, Section 1 is mainly devoted to a characterization of situations
and of the dynamic relation between situational constraints/affordances and
genres. Our main claim is that situations and genres stand in a relation of
mutual scaffolding to each other so that the existence of a text type is not
simply caused by the exigencies present in a given situation, but, once emerged,
also feeds back into the situation, further stabilizing or consolidating it: hence,
the use of the term {\textquotedblleft}feedback loop.{\textquotedblright} Section 2 is a more detailed discussion of
the dynamics of genres with a particular focus on the first feedback loop: the
way genres develop as deviations from existing text types and then stabilize as
text types proper with a normative import. The second scope of this article
consists in developing a typological apparatus consistent with the dynamic
approach to the emergence of genres. This is our parameter theory of genres
presented in Section 3. Here we consider genres as governed by parameters
external to them and intrinsic to the situations they are dynamically related to.
Genres should thus be understood not simply in terms of inherent textual or
formal traits, but also relative to a certain set of situational parameters and
relative to the degree to which they are governed by them.
