    Akademisk kyndighet (academic literacy) v. Bente Kristiansen

    Bente Kristiansen ved Centre for Educational Development, Aarhus universitet, arbeider med akademisk kommunikasjon og særlig akademiske kyndighet, "academic literacy". Akademisk literacy handler om kompetansen til å kommunisere i et bestemt akademisk diskurs-felleskap. Det er først og fremst noe studentene utvikler i fagene, heller enn generisk ferdighet som man lærer i egne kurs. Vi diskuterer hvordan man i høyere utdanning kan støtte studentenes utvikling av akademisk kyndighet, særlig skriving og lesning. Kristiansen har bl.a. forfattet boken Om at skrive på Universitetet, som akkurat har kommet i ny utgave.
