1. Introduction
Kim,Y. & Kim, J. (2005: 4) have quoted Hyland (2003) as stating that the process
approach to teaching writing sees, the writer as an independent producer of texts so
that teachers allow their students time and opportunity to develop students abilities to
plan, define a rhetorical problem, and propose and evaluate solutions. Response is crucial
in assisting learners to move through the stages of the writing process, and various means
of providing feedback are used, including teacher-student conferences, peer response,
audio taped feedback, and reformulation. This model views writing as ongoing, either in a
linear progression or in a circular (recursive) fashion. The writing task would involve the
writer engaging in the processes of planning, translating, drafting and revising. These
processes interact with each other and may be recursive besides giving room for peer
feedback as a means to revise their written work.
The writing process can be divided into 3 main stages; pre- writing, while- writing
and post- writing.
a) Pre-writing stage involves 3 tasks; selecting the topic, generating ideas and organizing
ideas
b) While- writing stage involves 4 tasks; drafting, getting feedback/ conferencing,
revising and editing
c) Post- writing stage involves 2 tasks; presentation and display

b) The idea when constructing word phrases is to begin from the Verbs column, and when the
verbs provided are insufficient, the writer could list out other appropriate verbs which are
related to the stimulus. Using the verbs, the writer would associate other words (nouns,
adjectives, preposition, articles, etc). This activity could be carried out more
systematically using the COPA method, which is explained below:
Example:
a) There is a family at their vegetable garden.
b) The family is pruning and harvesting their vegetables.
