Abstract

CHOIS LENIS, Pilar Mirely; GUERRERO JIMENEZ, Héctor Iván  and  BRAMBILA LIMON, Rocío. An analytical view of writing in graduate school: A review of documented practices in Latin America. Íkala [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.2, pp.535-556.  Epub Apr 01, 2021. ISSN 0123-3432.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.ikala.v25n02a09.

This review of pedagogical experiences presents a state of knowledge to the field of writing in graduate school, by putting forward the varied ways to teach writing in the disciplines and in contemporary Latin American contexts, from a New Literacy Studies perspective. This review showed some trends, such as the following (a) most of the experiences were delivered in curricular spaces called workshops or seminars; (b) they were oriented by a language specialist; (c) they emphasized peer revision as a didactic strategy; and (d) they focused on writing the thesis or a section of it. Furthermore, it revealed tensions between the writing teaching models being proposed and who should be responsible for carrying them out.

Keywords : writing instruction; Latin America; New Literacy Studies; writing in graduate school.
