About the Journal

Quaderni di didattica della scrittura (QDS) is an international, open-access scientific journal ranked in Class A, published biannually and operating through a double-blind peer-review process. Founded in 2004 by Cosimo Laneve, Full Professor of General Didactics at the University of Bari Aldo Moro, with the clear and fundamental aim of establishing a plural space for the development and circulation of knowledge about the teaching of writing and the practices deriving from it, QDS welcomes contributions addressing the teaching and learning of writing in its graphematic, multimodal, and generative-AI-hybridized variants, as well as reflections on the “simple” pleasure of writing. 
The journal aims to highlight and discuss major pedagogical issues – alongside linguistic and neuroscientific ones – pertaining to the didactics of writing. Its primary objective is therefore to support teachers’ professional growth by serving as a reference point for the development of a teaching professionalism in which writing competence constitutes an essential component. To this end, it offers a wide range of writing models for comparison, new content for deepening knowledge, and additional pathways, devices, and tools designed to innovate, refine, and enhance writing practices.
