Abstract

Genre-based pedagogy (GBP) is frequently employed to instruct second language (L2) English speakers to communicate through genre conventions, yet doing so may inadvertently subjugate culturally diverse ways of knowing and communicating knowledge, reinforcing predominant social norms. English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and English for Academic Purposes (EAP) traditions of GBP are characterized by broad subdisciplines, including critical perspectives aimed at promoting sociocultural diversity. Yet, current approaches may be limited in their critiquing of epistemological and ontological biases and practical application to broader social and educational contexts. The present work introduces integrative genre-based pedagogy (IGBP) to enhance social responsiveness in ESP/EAP genre instruction, particularly in English as a medium of instruction (EMI) and STEM contexts. IGBP is founded on three pillars of practice: identifying, enhancing, and critiquing. Cumulatively, these pillars of practice aim to elevate teachers' and students’ critical consciousness, authenticity, and collaboration, using a holistic approach to establish a positive learning environment for enhancing genre and cultural knowledge and engaging in ongoing critiques of genre.

综合体裁教学法：提高英语教学和STEM教育中的社会反应能力

体裁教学法（GBP）经常被用于指导第二语言（L2）英语使用者通过体裁惯例进行交流，然而这样做可能会在不经意间征服文化多样性的认识和交流知识的方式，强化主流社会规范。特殊用途英语（ESP）和学术用途英语（EAP）传统的特点是广泛的分支学科，包括旨在促进社会文化多样性的批判性观点。然而，目前的方法可能局限于对认识论和本体论偏见的批判，以及对更广泛的社会和教育背景的实际应用。本研究介绍了综合体裁教学法（IGBP），以提高ESP/EAP体裁教学中的社会反应性，特别是在英语作为教学媒介（EMI）和STEM环境中。IGBP建立在实践的三个支柱上：识别、增强和批评。累积起来，这些实践的支柱旨在提高教师和学生的批判意识、真实性和协作性，使用整体方法建立一个积极的学习环境，以增强类型和文化知识，并参与对类型的持续批评。
