| description | The indigenous Orang Asli in Malaysia who do not use English on a daily basis
consequently have low English proficiency and poor writing skills. Their existing
English as a foreign language (EFL) situation coupled with the ongoing problems in
gaining access to proper education further stifles their English language development.
In accordance with the long-term goals set by the Malaysian Education Blueprint
2015-2025 (MEB) and the fourth sustainable development goal of providing inclusive
and equitable quality education to the indigenous community, this study assesses the
effectiveness of the genre approach in improving secondary EFL Orang Asli students’
descriptive writing, and discovers their perceptions in using the genre approach as a
framework to overcome challenges in learning descriptive writing. The conceptual
framework encompasses Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the teaching and
learning cycle for genre writing, and the concept of scaffolding from the Sociocultural
Theory of Cognitive Development. |
