Abstract

Research background is a must for any kind of research topic and research design. It is the foundation for a researcher to begin the scientific research. It is the reflection of research topic, title, and further part of the research activities. In this article, we discuss alternative ways to construct a research background based on our previous research. We have finished a scientific research which analysed research problem formulation of 40 S-1 English thesis. One of our research data analyses is the research background. We found some mistakes for the research background. Based on the fact, we present 4 genres as alternative ways to construct or write a research background. Those 4 genres are explanation, discussion, information report, and exposition. In discussion session, we present one by one of those 4 genre which consists of the genre concept and example of the application to write simple research background. In the genre concept part, we explain the genre purpose, generic structure, and language features. In the genre example application, we present a research title, research design, ideas for every paragraph, and the simple background constructed. We also conclude important points from the discussion. First, there are not fix formulations to write a research background. It just needs to fulfil the requirements of logic and empiric. Second, if we have decided a genre to write a background, we have to be consistent to use it from the beginning till the end. A research background actually reflects researcher’s personality style, researcher necessary and orientation. Keywords: Writing, Research Background, Genre, Alternative
