Specifikacia A Dynamic Systems Theory Perspective on L2 Writing Development Li Shaopeng
From the perspective of empirical complex dynamic systems, this book investigates the complex and nonlinear process of L2 writing centering on three linguistic aspects of L2 writing development: vocabulary, syntax, and discourse.Combining dynamic systems theory, variation analysis, as well as data and cases studies from Chinese EFL learners' writing, the book critically engages with the heated discussion on dynamic patterns of L2 writing development that focus heavily on the linguistic dimensions of complexity, accuracy and fluency. The author expands the scope of the research by integrating both linguistic and functional dimensions of L2 output and examines the interaction and co-development of these dimensions. This framework helps delineate a full picture of individual learners' L2 writing dynamic patterns across all components of their communicative repertoire. The research
