Abstract

This review critically analyses research methodologies of two research articles (RA) which titled Assessing the quality of arguments in students’ persuasive writing: A case study analysing the relationship between surface structure and substance by Stapleton and Wu (2015) and Disciplinary and ethnolinguistic influences on citation in research articles by Hu and Wang (2014). Whereas Stapleton and Wu (2015) used Toulmin model and questionnaires to gather data, Hu and Wang (2014) applied CBA (Corpus-Based Approach).

Besides analysing the methodologies, the review also discusses the implications of those RAs to EAP teaching
