Abstract

In academic contexts writing is one of the most common academic activities where the students are asked to produce texts. The texts are liable to linguistic analysis. This paper addresses the analysis of two commonly produced academic texts: argument and discussion. The structures and grammatical realizations of the two texts are distinct. Based on the natures of the two text a teaching strategy is proposed to develop the students’ skills in writing the two texts.
