Abstract
At previous AAWP conferences and in articles in TEXT, I have described the development of the BA (Professional Writing and Communication) at the University of South Australia - a program in which students can pursue creative writing, technical and professional writing, editing and publishing, text studies, and studies in linguistics and sociolinguistics - studies framed by perspectives and knowledge drawn from the ethnography of communication, rhetorical practice, language study, research and practice of literacies and discourses in context. As part of this program we offer a sequence in Literary Practice. This paper focuses on this as a curriculum for the students of today and tomorrow - students who are members of the ‘Net Generation’ (Tapscott’s term, 1998) or more particularly are what I term the ‘M2 Generation’ (note 1) - those who are able to work with multiple dynamic multimedia / multimodal means of communication.
