Abstract

NARVAEZ CARDONA, Elizabeth  and  CHOIS LENIS, Pilar. A research project on academic reading and writing in Colombian universities aims to propose policy guidelines. Leng. [online]. 2012, vol.40, n.2, pp.285-313. ISSN 0120-3479.

The reflection from the findings confirms that both disciplinary and professional heritages define, in part, what is read and written; that scientific writing and creative writing are understood differently in public and institutional policies; and, thus, academic writing is a heterogeneous concept. Consequently, a policy guideline should take in account differences tied to the institutional histories and disciplinary and professional traditions of the universities

Keywords : reading and writing in higher Education; interuniversity research; educational policies; academic writing.
