The focus of this book is the use of genre-based approaches to
teaching academic writing. Genre-based courses enable second
language learners to integrate their linguistic, organisational and
contextual knowledge in a variety of different tasks. The book
reviews pedagogical approaches to genre through English for
Specific Purposes and Systemic Functional Linguistics to present a
synthesis of the current research being undertaken in the field.
From this theoretical base, Ian Bruce proposes a new model of
genre-based approaches to academic writing, and analyses the ways
in which this can be implemented in pedagogy and curriculum design.
Academic Writing and Genre is a cutting-edge monograph which will
be essential reading for researchers in applied linguistics.
