Abstract

College English writing, as one of the important means of acquiring knowledge and communicating ideas, is the necessary learning skill in the college study. The English writing center in Canada has been flourishing in the recent years and has become one of the key parts in writing instruction systems and higher education of Canada. This paper gave an insight into Canadian English writing center, including its development, the current situation and its future in the new century. Also, some implications enlightened by Canadian writing centers concerning Chinese writing teaching and relieving writing fossilization are analyzed. Hopefully some references might be made for college English writing teaching and writing studies in China.
