PRODUCT APPROACH
The first stage of product writing involves exposing students to a model text
of the genre they are supposed to produce.
CONTROLLED PRACTICE
Now it is time for students to start thinking about the text they are going to
write. Learners can work collaboratively during this phase to generate ideas
and take notes on what they would like to include in the text and language
that might be useful for them to produce their work.
FINAL PRODUCT
Finally, students produce their own texts. Product writing does not foresee
the composition of multiple drafts, but it is still essential that the teacher
provide learners with feedback on their production.
Some considerations when adopting a
Product Approach to writing.
• It helps learners to develop analytical skills
• Its time - efficient
PROCESS APPROACH
• Process Writing is an approach to teaching writing that allows the teacher
and the students to go through the process of producing a text together. In
process writing, students have the chance to think about what they are
going to write, produce drafts, revise, edit, and give and receive feedback
on their work before coming up with the final version of the text. A
process approach to writing contrasts with a product approach, where the
main idea is to reproduce a model text.
STAGES OF PROCESS APPROACH
• Pre-writing
• Writing
• Revising
• Editing
PRE-WRITING
In this stage, learners are asked to come up with ideas and plan what they are
going to write.
WRITING
In this stage, learners can compose the first draft of their texts. As students
will be given the chance to revise and edit their texts later, accuracy of
language, punctuation and vocabulary is not essential at this point.
Composing the text can be done individually or collaboratively - learners
can be given the chance to choose, according to their preference.
REVISING
• This is when learners have the opportunity to look back at their texts and
reorganise ideas, add, change or remove sentences and adapt their choice of
words to make sure the ideas are being conveyed clearly. Feedback has an
essential role in this stage. It can be provided by the teacher or by peers:
learners can exchange drafts and comment on each other's work.
• After revising, students write another draft - that means they go back to the
"writing" stage. This is an essential part of process writing: allowing learners
to write different drafts as focus on the process, rather than in the final result.
