Abstract The need for genre literacy is increasingly becoming evident in academic writing courses, particularly in the realm of research article (RA) writing. This paper documents RA genre-literacy informed revisions English as an Additional Language (EAL) graduate students applied to improve their term-paper assignments in the form of RAs following their participation in a series of genre-based research paper writing workshops in Applied Linguistics. Drawing upon insights from the revision strategy frameworks of Allal and Chanquoy (2003) and Willey and Tanimoto (2012), we developed a six-category taxonomy consisting of addition, deletion, reformulation, substitution, translocation, and expansion genre-based revision strategies. Using the prevailing genre-based frameworks, we compared the earlier and revised drafts of twelve RAs composed by Iranian graduate students to account for the strategies they employed to redraft each section of papers in terms of move-step realization. This study found that expansion, reformulation, and addition were the most commonly used genre-based revision strategies. In addition, the findings revealed that moves in introduction and discussion sections included the highest number of genre-based revisions. Through introducing genre-oriented RA revision strategies, this study calls for further attempts to promote the integration of genre literacy into English for Research Publication Purposes courses.

应用语言学研究生基于体裁的复习策略:来自学期论文的见解

摘要 在学术写作课程中,体裁素养的需求越来越明显,尤其是在研究文章 (RA) 写作领域。本文记录了 RA 体裁素养知情修订 英语作为附加语言 (EAL) 研究生在参加了一系列基于体裁的应用语言学研究论文写作研讨会后,他们申请以 RA 的形式改进他们的学期论文作业。借鉴 Allal 和 Chanquoy(2003)以及 Willey 和 Tanimoto(2012)的修订策略框架的见解,我们开发了一个六类分类法,包括添加、删除、重构、替换、易位和扩展基于类型的修订策略。使用流行的基于流派的框架,我们比较了伊朗研究生撰写的 12 份 RA 的早期和修订稿,以说明他们在实现步骤方面重新起草论文每一部分所采用的策略。本研究发现,扩展、重构和添加是最常用的基于体裁的修订策略。此外,调查结果显示,介绍和讨论部分的动作包括最多数量的基于体裁的修订。通过引入面向体裁的 RA 修订策略,本研究呼吁进一步尝试将体裁素养融入研究出版目的英语课程。和加法是最常用的基于体裁的修订策略。此外,调查结果显示,介绍和讨论部分的动作包括最多数量的基于体裁的修订。通过引入面向体裁的 RA 修订策略,本研究呼吁进一步尝试将体裁素养融入研究出版目的英语课程。和加法是最常用的基于体裁的修订策略。此外,调查结果显示,介绍和讨论部分的动作包括最多数量的基于体裁的修订。通过引入面向体裁的 RA 修订策略,本研究呼吁进一步尝试将体裁素养融入研究出版目的英语课程。
