Three of the six writing sections deal with genre rather than the narrower sub-skills of topic sentences or cohesive devices, the rationale being that advanced-level students are ready to tackle the broader challenge of genre writing, such as a wiki entry, an editorial, a proposal, and a personal statement for university entry. A writing workshop comes at the end of alternate units and gives extra practice via a model text and self-assessment of the writing types students might meet in TOEFL and IELTS exams eg. a for-andagainst essay, interpreting charts.
