Academic Formula Instructional Framework

By Ab Manan Nor Ashikin, Jaganathan Paramaswari, Pandian Ambigapathy, et al.

Academic Formula Instructional Framework is based on a study conducted among English as a second language (ESL) writers enrolled in an academic writing course at a selected institution of higher learning in Malaysia. The study was conducted to address the problem of poor academic writing performance among undergraduates due to poor academic vocabulary repertoire. An academic formula instructional framework was developed to operationalise academic formula instruction in an academic writing course employing a process-oriented writing approach. This book offers an overview of writing theories, formulaic language as well as past experimental and intervention studies related to formula instruction. In addition to providing scholarly research analysis, the book presented a pedagogical framework for academic formula instruction which may be useful for practitioners and researchers alike. The framework can be practically adapted and used for both action research and classroom instruction.
