ROJAS GARCIA, ILENE. Teaching how to read in Law school A textual analysis of the book Cartas de batalla, una crítica del constitucionalismo colombiano. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2014, n.24, pp.87-104. ISSN 0121-053X.

"Academic literacy at the CURN" is a research project being carried out as a part of the Institutional Project on Communicative Competences at the Corporación Universitaria Rafael Núñez. This study emphasizes on language as a means of access to knowledge, to each program's specific scientific community, and to a research culture. This work is developed through classroom experiences in which the language teacher identifies some discursive particularities of law school course books and determines, both their difficulty for being understood, and the didactic and linguistic strategies that could be developed to overcome these difficulties, through the focus of inferential reading. The experience described above resorted to an interdisciplinary reading of the book Cartas de batalla, una crítica del constitucionalismo colombiano, to meet the needs of teachers and students, by providing practical tools for detailed and analytical learning through the written text. The research is currently revising further texts belonging to other subjects of the Law program, after a similar process at the Faculty of Medicine.

Palabras clave : Academic literacy; transversal reading; inference; language didactics; textual analysis.
