11. More about teaching writing
Genre Writing
- relatively new in teaching and learning English.
- a part of genre in language use. Thoreau (2006)
simply states that genre in writing or genre writing
is a kind or type of writing in which it has a typical
style, particular target of readers, and a specific
purpose.
- covers three main aspects namely writing style,
readers, and goal (goal oriented). In line with style,
- means how something is written; the words that
are used and the way the information is organized
- words or expressions used to write the writing and
how language patterns are expressed.
12. More about teaching writing
Genre Writing
- tries to see writing from different perspective. It is a
different angle how writing is viewed and how it is
written and how it is analyzed It is extremely
different form ‘conventional’ perspective about
writing (Dirgeyasa, 2015).
- a new perspective to teaching writing due to
different perspectives.
- embedded in social situation, so that a piece of
writing is meant to achieve a particular purpose
which comes out of a particular situation. In terms
of genre writing, Hyland (2003) as cited in
(Dirgeyasa, 2015) proclaims that:

23. Red, cross, and silver color outcomes are controlled by two
pairs of non-linked autosomal genes
Red: AABB Silver: AAbb Cross: AaBb

25. Cross and silver color variants occur less frequently in dense
fox populations
Coat color distribution in different size populations
Average sized population
(<100 foxes in territory)
15% Silver 10%
10% Cross 5%
75% Red 85%
Dense sized population
(<100 foxes in territory)

27. Elevation plays a role: Cross and silver color variants occur
more frequently at elevations over 1828 meters (6000 ft)
Low elevation coat-color
distribution
9% silver
5% cross
86% red
High elevation coat-color
distribution
18% silver
9% cross
73% red

Marshall. This template will help those presenting technical information be more
understandable and engaging by using an “assertion/evidence” strategy. For more
information, visit her website or listen to her TED talk.
Melissa’s approach is also informed by Michael Alley’s book, The Craft of
Scientific Presentations.
