Resumen

Desarrollar el dominio de la escritura en inglés siempre ha sido un desafío para el alumnado de nivel 2 en general y para el alumnado saudí en particular. A pesar de la presencia generalizada de departamentos de inglés en universidades saudíes desde la década pasada, los resultados y logros son desalentadores. Este artículo investiga de cerca esta situación, tratando de encontrar los aspectos que pueden explicar esta debilidad. Para ello se revisan los más importantes estudios empíricos y teóricos relacionados con el contexto saudí. Este trabajo presenta una panorámica general sobre cómo las habilidades de escritura en inglés han evolucionado en Arabia Saudita en el pasado reciente, y detalla los desafíos que enfrentan no solo el alumnado saudita de nivel 2 sino también los profesionales involucrados en la enseñanza del idioma inglés en este país. Además, se ofrece una visión de las principales innovaciones pedagógicas llevadas a cabo en este terreno y se sugiere un camino de desarrollo futuro.
