Isi artikel

The term skills, though prominent in English for Academic Purposes, seems to have a confusingly varied meaning. Moreover, the difference between skills and other sorts of EAP syllabus item is not always clear. When there is such uncertainty about what a skills approach is, there is difficulty in deciding its value. An attempt is made in the article to infer a standard definition capable of generating most of what have been called skills in EAP. Skills are seen as derived from the four traditional language skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening. They are always a competence category, though sometimes one of performance as well. They mayor may not include language functions and structures, and they usually imply tasks. "Macro skills" are particularly useful in EAP syllabuses, while there is also an argument in favour of "micro skills."
