Abstract

This article explores the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools as a resource to augment the writing of mentor texts for second language (L2) writing instruction. We show how two AI-generated mentor texts demonstrate typical stages and language features in two genres: Cyclical Explanation and Discussion. Guided by the theoretical perspective of systemic functional linguistics, this article identifies key language features in these mentor texts. We highlight how AI text generators integrated into the Teaching and Learning Cycle (TLC) can offer an unprecedented resource in L2 writing classrooms to identify genre features for L2 writers.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Second Language Writing is devoted to publishing theoretically grounded reports of research and discussions that represent a significant contribution to current understandings of central issues in second and foreign language writing and writing instruction. Some areas of interest are personal characteristics and attitudes of L2 writers, L2 writers'' composing processes, features of L2 writers'' texts, readers'' responses to L2 writing, assessment/evaluation of L2 writing, contexts (cultural, social, political, institutional) for L2 writing, and any other topic clearly relevant to L2 writing theory, research, or instruction.
