Abstract

To better understand the use of multimodal writing tasks in university graduate programs and how IELTS Academic Writing Tasks compare to graduate-level multimodal writing tasks, this project examines the similarities and differences between the writing tasks across the two domains (i.e., test and academic) in terms of task features, students’ linguistic performance, and perceptions of students and academic staff members. To broaden perspectives on the research questions, we present three studies conducted in three different cultural contexts: Türkiye, the UK, and the USA.
