It provides a forum for discussing issues connected with writing and computer use across diverse and global contexts. The journal offers information about integrating computers into writing programs on the basis of sound theoretical and pedagogical decisions, and empirical evidence.
The journal welcomes scholarly contributions that examine the intersection of digital technologies and writing practices. We seek articles that advance our understanding of how technology shapes composition theory, practice, and pedagogy. Founded in 1983, the journal has evolved alongside technological developments, maintaining its commitment to publishing cutting-edge research connected to writing and technology use in educational and professional settings.
Computers and Composition publishes a variety of scholarly work, including:
Research on effective and equitable integration of technology in writing instruction
Theoretical explorations of how digital environments influence composing processes
Case studies of innovative approaches to teaching with technology
Critical and rhetorical examinations of software and hardware used in writing contexts
Analyses of digital literacy practices and their implications for writing
Historical perspectives on the evolution of computers in composition
Investigations of assessment practices in technology-enhanced writing environments
Explorations of ethical, social, cultural, linguistic, multimodal, and environmental dimensions of technology use
Examinations of diverse epistemological perspectives on technology and composition, including non-Western and Indigenous lenses
Studies of writing program administration in digital contexts
While rooted in the traditions of rhetoric and composition, the journal recognizes the increasingly interconnected nature of writing instruction worldwide. We welcome perspectives from scholars and practitioners who bring diverse experiences and approaches to the study of computers and writing. The journal maintains humanistic inquiry standards while embracing methodological diversity, including appropriate social science approaches.
Computers and Composition remains committed to publishing work that not only contributes to scholarly discourse but also informs classroom practice and organizational processes. By fostering dialogue among researchers, practitioners, teachers, and program administrators, the journal aims to advance our collective understanding of how technology can enhance writing in varied settings.
