Abstract:

This paper succinctly explicates the rationale behind an L2 writing instruction model practiced in classroom. Firstly, the Reading Chain consists of such links as student initial text perceiving, teacher-guided preliminary processing and student-regulated self-discovery prior to deeper text processing. Whereas, the Writing Chain comprises such links as student producing and teacher monitoring of texts, relevant types of feedback given to student writers, subsequent student revision and further feedback-referenced revision. Being exploratory in nature, this model has proven to enable student writers to improve their L2 writing competence.

Key words: reading & writing-dual-chained L2 writing instruction model, quality-writing standards, internalization, production, feedback, revision
