Abstract

With the increasing demand for producing international publications, many university lecturers are now trying to improve their English skills especially for writing papers for international publications. The so-called training on journal writing for international publications is offered to and conducted for them. This research was an attempt to identify the learning needs of them so that appropriate goals and syllabus for courses can be formulated. The data were collected with a questionnaire covering the identification of their interests in improving English writing for an academic purpose, writing skills considered necessary for them, as well as their preference in training organization. Forty non-English subject lecturers of a university with different disciplines as medicine, engineering, psychology, laws, and education were randomly selected as respondents. The data show that non-English lecturers are interested in improving writing skill and are aware that not being able to write English paper will negatively affect their academic performance. Writing skills as writing sentences and paragraphs, making paraphrases, writing good introductions, body, and conclusion are necessary to be studied. For training, they like to have it during work days once to three meetings in a week.
