Chapter One Introduction
1.1 Research Background
Much importance should be attached to the teaching of English writing.Looking back the history of English writing teaching,several teaching methods and approaches have appeared, including the grammar-translation method,the audio-lingual method,the proficiency-oriented method,the process-oriented approach,the product-oriented approach and the genre approach.
The product-oriented approach which prevailed in pubic schools until the last decade tends to consider writing as a linear and solitary process,with writing start at the very beginning of a piece and going through to the end straightly;emphasize the final product rather than the process that lead up to it; and regard teacher’s role as a judge and corrector(Williams,2017).The product-oriented approach to writing is featured by one draft and one mark,silent class atmosphere with teachers’sole domination over the writings.Generally,the initial writing effort was regarded as the final draft of the composition.Those compositions were marked and graded by teachers and no opportunities for revision were provided to the students during writing.In this process English teachers usually suffered from the time-consuming and burdensome tasks of correcting many surface-level errors in the students’compositions.However,students kept on repeating the same mistakes without awareness,which stirs great writing dislike and anxiety among the students.Besides,according to the product-oriented approach,the English learning and teaching seem to be geared to preparing for examination compositions rather than to improving language proficiency for practical use.

Lastly,it is hard for the students to enrich their content during the writing process due to their language proficiency and lack of topic-related ideas.According to the Basic Teaching Requirement for Vocational College English Course,the teaching aim of vocational college English is to develop students’comprehensive abilities of using English language.As for the English writing,it is specifically required that students should be able to master the basic writing skills and accomplish writing tasks of different types,including description,narration,argumentation and practical writings, like business email,announcement.For the English majors,the requirement of their writing profici，英语论文题目 |
