Abstract
In this essay, the author explores four fundamental, but contested topics in Genre-based Writing Instruction (GBWI) about which decisions must be made as curricula are developed. Drawing from the three major genre traditions ( Hyon, 1996), the author examines the contested topics ( naming, awareness/ acquisition, pedagogical focus, and ideology) and suggests compromises for L2 practitioners who adopt a genre-based approach.
