paper corpusSignosTxtLongLines579 - : The analysis of the rhetorical organization of lecture introductions can provide models of their structure that students non-native to English can be familiarized with, resulting in their creation of “mental maps” which can assist the listeners in processing the lecture content (^[26]Lee, 2009: 43 ). Four genre analyses of lecture introductions have been produced to date - ^[27]Thompson (1994), ^[28]Lee (2009), ^[29]Shamsudin and Ebrahimi (2012) and ^[30]Yaakob (2013). The former three used relatively small corpora, consisting of 18, 10 and 6 lectures respectively, and the only study employing a more sizeable corpus was that of ^[31]Yaakob (2013), who analyzed 89 lecture introductions from the BASE corpus . Just one of these studies - that of ^[32]Shamsudin and Ebrahimi (2012), used a discipline-specific corpus (engineering), but, as noted above, consisting of just 6 lectures.

paper corpusSignosTxtLongLines579 - : Following ^[81]Thompson (1994) in his analysis of the impact of class size on the rhetorical organization of 10 lecture introductions from various disciplines taken from MICASE, ^[82]Lee (2009: 46) identified another move - WARMING UP, in which lecturers:

paper corpusSignosTxtLongLines579 - : Compared to previous studies, ^[89]Yaakob (2013) used a larger corpus, including 89 lecture introductions taken from the BASE, and introduced two main orientations: CONTENT ORIENTATION and LISTENER ORIENTATION, taken from the study of ^[90]Dubois (1980 ). The content orientation realizes ^[91]Thompson’s two functions (1994) - SETTING UP THE LECTURE FRAMEWORK and PUTTING TOPIC IN CONTEXT, whereas the listener orientation, realised through seven subfunctions: ‘greeting’, ‘announcement’, ‘check comprehension’, ‘check comprehension feedback’, ‘refer to handout’ and ‘refer to visual’, was identified and added by ^[92]Yaakob (2013). As stated earlier, ^[93]Yaakob (2013) explored a mixed corpus of arts and humanities, social, physical and life science.
