日本語アカデミック・ライティングの指導上の指針として、レポートのジャンル特徴を明らかにするため、大学初年次の科目で日本語母語話者大学生によって書かれたレポート13編の論証部分の談話を分析し、結果を社会学系の学術論文におけるムーヴ・ステップ(【取り上げ】【事実記述】【引用】【評価的描写】【推論・解釈】)の表れと比較した。また、書き手間の談話特徴の差異についても考察を行った。分析の結果、学術論文との差異およびレポート間の差異は、【引用】使用の成否と【取り上げ】【評価的描写】【推論・解釈】の配置による結束性の強弱に影響されることがわかった。これらの結果をもとに教育的示唆を論じ、提言を試みた。
With a view to providing international students with guides for academic writing, discourses of the discussions in thirteen essays written by native Japanese students in a first year academic writing course in a university were analyzed with the moves and steps included. The moves “focusing,” “fact description,” “quotation,” “evaluative description,” and “inference/interpretation” appeared in the essays were compared with those of academic articles in social science. The differences among writers were also examined. Each essay was characteristic in the way of quotations, and in the range of cohesions supported by “focusing,” “evaluative description,” and “inference/interpretation.” These findings revealed that adequate skill training to express author’s evaluation should be incorporated into the instructions for academic writing.
