Includes bibliographical references. This longitudinal, qualitative case study provides thick description of six English second-language (ESL) students' transition from Social Science disciplines to postgraduate study in the professional disciplines of Law and Marketing at a South African university. The study has two main objectives. Firstly, it aims to understand the ways in which the students perceive the literacy practices they bring to their new disciplines and how these contribute to their challenges with writing and with reconciling past and emerging disciplinary identities. The study's second objective is to explore the ways in which these perceptions manifest in students' writing. 2015-01-20T18:11:59Z 2015-01-20T18:11:59Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12280 eng application/pdf School of Education Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
