In recent years English for academic purposes (EAP) has become one of the mainstream fields of practice, study and research within lan-guage education, mainly due to the position of English as the interna-tional language of higher education and scientific research. The paper briefly examines the main assumptions of the approach in the context of its links to ESP (English for specific purposes), systemic functional linguistics and new literacy studies. However, the main focus of the present discussion is on genre-based pedagogy as the leading frame-work and an important point of reference for EAP education. To illus-trate this perspective within the field, the notion of genre and its in-terpretations in foreign language teaching are discussed. Finally, two closely related academic genres – discussion and debate – are ex-plored with the aim of indicating their potential benefits, areas of dif-ficulty and challenges for students and teachers in the EAP classroom.
