For successful academic life of second language students in English-medium universities, ‘academic literacies’ approach needs to be introduced in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) classes. The reason may be that only study skills are not enough to guarantee successful academic life in the situation of doing many writing assignments in English-medium universities. For outstanding writing assignments, it is important for students to be assimilated to discourse community of their disciplines because disciplines have different terms, genres, values, goals and ways of thinking. This coincides with ‘academic literacy’ approach, a more discipline-sensitive and discourse-based approach considering learning as acculturation into a new culture. What is more, as disciplines are more specified, EAP teachers need to use ‘academic literacies’ approach, focusing on discourse community and socio-cultural context of particular discipline because each discipline has technical, field-specific terms, and different ways of arguing, interpreting data and drawing conclusions.
