Raising metacognitive genre awareness in L2 academic readers and writers

TL;DR: In this article, Negretti et al. introduce metacognitief genrebewustzijn, a concept that is used by academisch lezers and schrijvers in a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) program.
Abstract: Metacognitief genrebewustzijn verhogen bij academische L2 lezers en schrijvers Deze dissertatie richt zich op de ontwikkeling van metacognitief genrebewustzijn, een concept geintroduceerd door Negretti en Kuteeva (2011) dat genrebewustzijn koppelt aan metacognitie (zie ook Johns, 2008 en Devitt, 2004). Het is aangetoond dat metacognitief genrebewustzijn van belang is bij het ontwikkelen van het vermogen van leerders om academische teksten te lezen en te produceren (zie Negretti & Kuteeva, 2011). Door gebruik van een multi-method benadering – een combinatie van kwantitatieve en kwalitatieve methoden – onderzochten wij de ontwikkeling van metacognitief genrebewustzijn en de mate waarin dit bijdraagt aan academisch lezen en schrijven bij Engelsetaalleerders in een TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) programma in Honduras. De onderzoeksresultaten laten zien dat L2 leerders voor het grootste deel declaratief en procedureel genrebewustzijn ontwikkelen, in ruime mate en op verschillende manieren. L2 leerders hebben echter moeite met het ontwikkelen van conditioneel genrebewustzijn, dat wil zeggen het flexibel toepassen van kennis van genre-gebaseerde kenmerken en retorische aspecten bij andere academische taken en situaties. L2 leerders demonstreren de transfer van metacognitief genrebewustzijn bij de interpretatie van academische teksten. Eveneens vertonen ze een hogere mate van declaratieve en procedurele kennis in vergelijking met conditionele kennis van genre-baseerde kenmerken. Met betrekking tot de productie van academische genres, laten de L2 leerders transfer zien van metacognitief genrebewustzijn, in verschillende mate en op verschillende manieren, en ook nu wordt minimale conditionele kennis gedemonstreerd in de overdracht van genre-gebaseerde kennis naar complexe taken. De studie benadrukt de noodzaak voor verder onderzoek naar genrebewustzijn en wat de invloed ervan is op academische lees- en schrijfvaardigheid van L2 leerders.

TL;DR: The Discovery of Grounded Theory as mentioned in this paper is a book about the discovery of grounded theories from data, both substantive and formal, which is a major task confronting sociologists and is understandable to both experts and laymen.
Abstract: Most writing on sociological method has been concerned with how accurate facts can be obtained and how theory can thereby be more rigorously tested. In The Discovery of Grounded Theory, Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss address the equally Important enterprise of how the discovery of theory from data--systematically obtained and analyzed in social research--can be furthered. The discovery of theory from data--grounded theory--is a major task confronting sociology, for such a theory fits empirical situations, and is understandable to sociologists and laymen alike. Most important, it provides relevant predictions, explanations, interpretations, and applications. In Part I of the book, "Generation Theory by Comparative Analysis," the authors present a strategy whereby sociologists can facilitate the discovery of grounded theory, both substantive and formal. This strategy involves the systematic choice and study of several comparison groups. In Part II, The Flexible Use of Data," the generation of theory from qualitative, especially documentary, and quantitative data Is considered. In Part III, "Implications of Grounded Theory," Glaser and Strauss examine the credibility of grounded theory. The Discovery of Grounded Theory is directed toward improving social scientists' capacity for generating theory that will be relevant to their research. While aimed primarily at sociologists, it will be useful to anyone Interested In studying social phenomena--political, educational, economic, industrial-- especially If their studies are based on qualitative data.
