Exploring EFL Learners’ Self-Efficacy in Academic Writing Based on Process-Genre Approach

Abstract: This study explores the change of EFL learners’ level of self-efficacy in process-genre academic writing instruction. The teaching experiment was conducted for 14 weeks. A total of 59 graduate students participated in the experiment. Before the experiment, the results showed that the general level of EFL graduates’ self-efficacy in academic writing was relatively low. After 14 weeks of academic writing instruction conducted by the process-genre approach, participants’ self-efficacy improved significantly. In t… Show more

“…The recent surge of interest in EFL writing leads researchers to investigate and develop approaches to improve and trace learners' writing development (Voon, 2007). To achieve a good command of linguistic knowledge and improve contextual knowledge, researchers (Pourdana & Behbahani, 2012;Yang & Sun, 2015;Zhang, 2018) advocate the use of the process genre approach. Arteaga-Lara (2017) argued that the process genre approach is the most practical approach that can be demonstratively adopted in writing courses.…”

Moreover, this approach incorporates learner-centered learning that encourages effective communication between the teacher and students and which enables the teacher to identify learners' needs.…”

However, students are made passively and less attention is given to students' needs for basic writing skills and requirements for their language accuracy [39]. This model for teaching writing is presented as a challenging model for use in the classroom because "it refers to a pedagogy that involves examining and deconstructing examples of genre (text categories) [40].…”
