Rosa Maria Manchón Ruiz (born 1960) is a professor of applied linguistics at the University of Murcia, Spain.[1] Her research focuses on second language acquisition and second language writing.[2] She was the editor of the Journal of Second Language Writing between 2008 and 2014.[3] Along with Cumming, Hyland, Kormos, Matsuda, Ortega, Polio, Neomy Storch and Verspoor, Manchón has been considered an important theoretician in second language writing research.

Career

Manchón started teaching at the University of Murcia in 1995.[4]

From 2011 and 2014 she was the member of the Executive Board of the International Association of Applied Linguistics. From 2008 and 2014 she was the co-editor of the Journal of Second Language Writing.[5][6] On 24 March 2010, she was interviewed along with Ilona Leki on the goals and the future of the Journal of Second Language Writing.[7]

She is an associate editor of The Modern Language Journal, a peer-reviewed academic journal.[8]

Research

Manchón is noted for her theoretical contributions to the study of second language writing. She distinguished the writing-to-learn (WL) and the learning-to-write (LW) dimensions.[9] Her research interests have focused on the cognitive dimension of the acquisition and use of second languages, with special emphasis on the psycholinguistic dimension of textual production.

She has edited several books on second language writing: Writing in Foreign Language Contexts: Learning, Teaching and Research, Learning-to-Write and Writing-to-Learn in an Additional Language, and L2 Writing Development: Multiple Perspectives.
