Abstract

The research is conducted to identify issues of sentence structure and paragraph building in academic writing ability. The objectives are to identify the most and the least common problems found in both variables. The data are sixty paragraphs of freshmen of three faculties of a state university in Depok, West Java. Descriptive analysis and Content analysis are the two methods which are used to analyze the data. The findings of the research are divided into two groups: Sentence Structure Problems and Paragraph building problems. For the first category the most common problems are the inappropriate use of Grammar Points, Lexical Units, and Cohesive Device, and the least are Punctuation, Run-On, and Stringy sentences. In the scope of paragraph building, not providing supporting details and irrelevant sentences are the most common problems; as for the least problems are irrelevant sentences and transition sentences.

大学生学术写作中的句子结构问题与段落构建
本研究旨在找出学术写作能力中句子结构和段落构建的问题。目标是确定在两个变量中发现的最常见和最不常见的问题。数据是西爪哇德波的一所国立大学三个院系新生的60段文章。描述性分析和内容分析是分析数据的两种方法。研究结果分为两组:句子结构问题和段落构建问题。对于第一类,最常见的问题是语法点、词汇单位和衔接手段的不当使用,而标点符号、连词和串句子的使用最少。在构建段落的范围内,不提供支持细节和不相关的句子是最常见的问题;问题最少的是不相关句和过渡句。
