In discussion and analysis in applied linguistics groups are gathered into communities.One such grouping which is widely used to analyse written communication is discourse community. • Unlike a speech community, membership of a discourse community is usually a matter of choice;unlike an interpretive, members of a discourse community actively share goals. • Some writer have described an "academic discourse community" while others have identified discourse communities within the academy. •Although Swales felt that shared goals were definitive of discourse community, a 'public discourse community' cannot have shared goals, and more crucially,a generalized 'academic discourse community'may not have shared goals or genres in a meaningful sense.

• Recent insights into academic writing have shown considerable variation in academic writing and text characteristics across fields, languages and cultures. • Reader's needs are sometimes discussed under dialogic versus monologic, expository versus contemplative tendencies in academic narration. • Recently more voices have been raised in favor of a "more human" attitude to academic texts. •Linguistics or textual accountability contributes to writer's expertise in field and method. • Though Swales recognizes the role of field knowledge in the constitution of discourse community,he concentrates on the sense of unity that stems from shared communication values.

“Genre Analysis: English in Academic and Research Settings by John M. Swales.” Goodreads, Goodreads, 8 Nov. 1990, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1961879.Genre_Analysis.

• Within the last two decades genre has become a popular framework for analyzing the form and function of scientific discourse.

• The role of language in academic setting is of vital interest to all those concerned with tertiary education,including students, teachers, researchers. •Work in ESP, by the middle eighties, not only interested in characterizing linguistic effects; It was also concerned to seek out the determinants of those effects.

• And yet these recent contributions to our understanding of discourse in educational and functional settings have largely remained faithful to their primary motivation and disciplinary tradition.

•A more recent influence derives from studies in the social context of academic writing as an outgrowth of a tradition of rhetorical scholarship.

A discourse community is a group of people who share a set of discourses, understood as basic values and assumptions, and ways of communicating about those goals. Linguist John Swales defined discourse communities as "groups that have goals or purposes, and use communication to achieve these goals." Copied from discourse community.

Although John Swales felt that shared "goals" were definitive of discourse community, but he also acknowledged that "public discourse community" cannot have shared goals, and more significantly while a generalized "academic discourse community" may not have shared goals and genres in any meaningful sense. According to John this may be why the term "discourse community" is now being replaced by "community of practice" which is a term from sociocultural theory. "Community of practice" is defined clearly as having "mutual engagement" and "joint enterprise" which separates it from the more widely accepted implications of discourse community.

Hey,I would like feedback on how I should construct my sentences and how to cite correctly.

Review from Bella and Anhella
To cite your sources properperly, you can use the "cite" tab by copying and pasting the sources that you already had in sandbox.

Bold your sentences so it's easier for you know to read and be able to see and see how well it fits.

Review from Colleen
I can't really tell which Is the part that you wrote versus what part was there, or if you wrote all of this. I was a little bit confused on what all the little arrows were on the sentences. For the citations I believe that they look correct. You should use UMBrella if possible because there is a button you can press that will just cite the source for you that I find very helpful!

Review from Max

 * Both the sources you used are reliable, I used Borg and Swale as sources as well
 * I like your sentences overall and think they add useful info (although I'm not 100% looking at the right sentences, you should bold them
 * I think they are probably placed
 * I think one of your sentences is about "community of practice" and I plan on adding something similar and put it in the coordination thing
 * The citations are solid
