Abstract
Writing for research purposes in English has become extremely important for Ukrainian researchers in view of Ukraine’s movement towards European integration and westernization of the country’s educational standards. However, the teaching and learning of English research writing requires elaboration and application of specifi c pedagogical approaches suitable for Ukrainian educational context. This paper revisits and discusses a linguistic and didactic model of teaching English research article writing, the initial variant of which was elaborated twenty years ago and further developed as part of the English for Academic Purposes course for doctoral students majoring in sciences. The model is based upon the concept of genre which provides a holistic vision of various communicative, cognitive and linguistic features of different types of texts. It consists of three major stages with several sub-stages and ensures students’ consecutive movement from an introductory stage to a higher level of learning writing. The discussed model has a number of pedagogical advantages as it provides a starting point for writing, possesses a linguistic focus essential for those who learn English outside the immediate sphere of its functioning, and can potentially be used in similar educational contexts.
