Abstract

Abstract This paper aims to discuss how experienced English for Academic Purposes (EAP) teachers’ beliefs about academic writing have affected their instruction. The data comprised two semi-structured interviews conducted with three experienced Brazilian EAP teachers working at a large university language center. Their course programs were also collected. The analysis of the six interviews revealed that the instructors´ structuralist view of language affected the product-based teaching of writing. In order to develop themselves as EAP instructors, they have to face some challenges: this traditional view of language which hinders the work with the specificity of academic discourse and the structuration of sustainable EAP professional development.

在职EAP教师学术写作观念及其对教学的影响

摘要本文旨在探讨资深学术英语教师的学术写作观念对其教学的影响。数据包括对三名在大型大学语言中心工作的经验丰富的巴西EAP教师进行的两次半结构化访谈。他们的课程计划也被收集。对六次访谈的分析表明，教师的结构主义语言观影响了以产品为基础的写作教学。传统的语言观阻碍了学术话语的专一性，也阻碍了EAP专业可持续发展的结构。
