From the statement above, I can sum up that the text is the simplest way to express our idea which has meaningful and purposes with an acceptable structure.
2.2.6 Genre
Genre derives from experience, so through genres hopefully that indviduals develop their relationship, establish their communicaties ann able to achieve their
goals. Because genre comes from experience, therefore by studying genres intended that students be able to understand the concept and they would be able to
identify a kind of texts that students will have to write. Finally, it is important for the students to learn the genre in order to recognize their experience of everyday
life for being assigned in their writing and speaking. In other words, the students can express their ideas through their experiences for learning of kinds of genres
appropriately. David Butt 1996: 17 states that when a set of text shares the same purpose,
they will often shares the same obligatory an doptional structural elements and so they belong to the same genre.
Linda Gerot and Peter Wignell 1994:17 explain that genre is the text types that can be defined as a culturally specific text types which result from using
language both in written and spoken to help accomplish something. In a genre –
basede approach to writing, students study certain texts in genre they are going to write before they embark on their writing.
A genre from French “kind” or “ sort”, from Latin: Genus stem gener is a loose set of criteria for a category of composition; the term is often used
to categorize literature and speech, but it is also used for any other of art or utterance.httpen.wikipedia.orgwikiGenre 2112011
The genre of Vocational School level include: procedural, descriptive, recount, narrative, report, etc. Those are:
First, procedural text is a piece of text that gives us instructions for doing something. The purpose of this text is used to explain how something can be done.
Second, narrative is a piece of text which tells a story in doing so, entertains or inform the reader or listener. Third recount is a piece of text to retell a series of
events usually in the order they occured. In final project I concentrate on teaching procedural text by using genre
– based approach to analyze generic structure and language features of it.
