Description | ||||||
In identifying the fundamental content of the English Language Teaching report in English language teaching in Myanmar conference abstracts are very important for writing research articles. The purpose of the paper is to investigate whether research article writers with PhD degrees and research article writers with non-PhD degrees differed in terms of rhetorical moves and the use of verb tenses in abstract writing. To examine the research data in this study a sample of the six conference abstracts was chosen out of the twenty one abstracts submitted at 2019 ELT Conference which was held in Pinlon Hall, University of Yangon with the theme “Revisiting the Assessment of ELT in Myanmar”. Hyland’s (2000) model was used to identify rhetorical moves such as Introduction, Purpose, Method, Results and Conclusion. Tseng’s model (2011) was also used to identify some common verb types used in the moves. According to the results of the study, moves 1, 2 and 3 were obligatory whereas moves 4 and 5 were optional in two sets of the data. Moreover, in the two sets of the data the conference abstracts displayed no preference for the self-mention pronouns. As for the use of the tenses, the authors in the two sets of the data liked to use the present and future tense. The rare use of the past and present perfect tense could be identified in the first set, not in the second one. Moreover, the authors from the two groups preferred active voice tenses. It is hoped that the findings will help future ELT conference participants to be fully aware of the principles of writing clear and successful conference abstracts. |
