Authors : Kherfi Bachir . Chaouki Noreddin .
Abstract
Writing at the tertiary level requires more than acquiring linguistic knowledge. Thus, adopting approaches that take into consideration the linguistic knowledge as well as the socio-cultural knowledge is necessary for students to achieve an acceptable level in academic writing. This study investigates necessities and obstacles of adopting a genre-based instruction to teach academic writing in English foreign language class at the university. It is a descriptive study based on qualitative and quantitative analyses. For data collection, two questionnaires were administered. One questionnaire was administered to first year Master students to see their attitudes towards previous academic writing courses and their views on writing skill. The other questionnaire was designed for teachers to know their adopted approach in academic writing and the difficulties Master students face in academic writing. Results show the absence of the social dimension of academic writing in previous courses. This can be a reason, among others, that necessitate the adoption of a genre approach.
Keywords
