Abstract

This paper presents the process and the problems, as well as their solutions, of producing an English academic paper by an Indonesia graduate student. The study analyzes the student's self-reported experience by using some theories of academic writing. It is argued that there are few requirements for students to produce an appropriate English academic paper, such as: (1)exposure to related sources; (2)knowledge and skills of writing an academic paper that meets the international standard; (3)engagement in the production process; and (4)supports from her environments. Moreover, the study reveals that individual factors have significant influence on the successful paper production, whereas the solutions to the problems entail some positive and negative consequences. The study ams to describe a case that may inspire the participants of the English teaching and learning to see the process and problems of producing an academic paper more clearly. With a clear picture in mind, they may find better ways to solve the problems.
