Abstract

Studies on the rhetorical structure and linguistic features of research article published in reputable international journals, and a genre-based approach to teaching writing have received considerable attention from scholars in the last decade. However, little research has been conducted on writing RA abstracts based on the standard of international journals by combining the genre-based approach and mentoring process. Therefore, this study intends to address such a gap by applying the genre-based mentoring method to help improve the rhetorical moves and tenses usage of RA abstract drafts written by lecturers in social and humanities in Bengkulu. The participants of this study consisted of 20 lecturers. This study used the frameworks of Swales and Feak (2009) for move structures and Swales and Feak (2012) for tenses usage. These framework were used to evaluate the RA abstract drafts of the participants. The findings confirm that the quality of RA abstract drafts showed a better improvement viewed from the frequency of the rhetorical moves and the use of appropriate tense. It indicates that the RA abstract drafts of the participant have complied with the structure of international journals in terms of rhetorical moves and the use of appropriate tenses. Moreover, genre-based mentoring is effectively used in teaching academic

Abstract

The significance of reading the abstracts of research publications in particular disciplines is becoming more widely acknowledged in literature. In a scientific publication, the abstract is the second mini-text the reader may encounter after the title. The term paper's value is thus determined by its abstract, which also rates it as good or confusing. Today's contrast studies look into scientific fields' abstract rhetorical structures. It follows Hyland's (2000) model for rhetorical organization, which includes an introduction, purpose, method, product, and conclusion. The objective data for analysis is a corpus of forty abstracts from the sciences (biology, chemistry, physics, and science) that were published between 2021 and 2022. The findings revealed rhetorical variances in the four disciplines' abstract constructions of science education. In parts M1, M2, M3, and M4, this abstract follows a non-hierarchical five-motion structure with four stable movements. The research results support the idea that writers' preferred rhetorical and writing patterns in academic writing are influenced by standards regarding word counts and discourse communities. The conclusion of the research is that the arrangement of the movements found in the abstract demonstrates how useless lengthy texts are to the growth of rhetorical movements. Despite the fact that the five movements are not widely used in works, the findings show that abstract rhetorical movement patterns within JIPI groups generally mirror conventions.
