Ex 10.4c
A number of writers have discussed the advantages and disadvantages of
teaching genre analysis for academic writing. Hammond and Macken-Horarick
(1999), for example, observed that students understand text better and become more
successful writers when exposed to genre analysis. Christie (1993) and Martin (1993)
both agreed that disadvantaged students, such as those from poor backgrounds,
benefit from instruction in academic genres to enhance their success in both school
and university. Kay and Dudley-Evans (1998) found that teachers perceived the genre
approach as a useful framework, but they also noted concerns about its prescriptive
nature which can lead students to be less creative. Swales (2000), after his own
research and analysis, advocated for teaching genres but emphasized the importance
of students bringing their own ideas to academic texts. These perspectives highlight
the multifaceted nature of genre analysis in academic writing instruction. On other
hand, Luke (1996) contended that teaching academic genres may lead students to
produce formulaic writing, while Hyon (2001) warned against the potential for
students to overgeneralize academic writing rules.
