PROCESS GENRE BASED APPROACH MODEL IN LEARNING ACADEMIC WRITING SKILLS

Abstract

Abstract: Academic writing is one of the skills that need to be developed among students. As a skill, writing is a process that requires continuous and systematic training. The writing process starts from pre-writing, writing, and post-writing. Some studies suggest that such writing processes need to be developed by strategies involving student activity. The activity can be done by text modeling. Students are asked to observe and construct text. The aim is to help students understanding text structure and its language.  The construction of the text can be done both through collaborative and independent. Through discussion activities, students enable to construct text together. The aim is for interaction between text and fellow readers. Learning model that combines writing process and approach to text is known as the Process Genre Based Approach Model.
