Epilogue: Second language writing in the age of computer-mediated communication

Abstract The emergence of digital technologies has significantly transformed the forms, genres, and purposes of writing both inside and outside the classroom. This special issue focuses on writing in computer-mediated environments to provide important insights for educators, researchers, and instructors in this area. We summarize the findings from the special issue in light of other recent research, and point to implications for pedagogy and research.
