La enseñanza de la impersonalidad en la escritura de los géneros académicos

Abstract

We analyze teaching impersonality in an academic writing class at the university level with the socio-discursive interactionism theory, in order to learn how grammatical notions (third person, passive voice and impersonality) were taught in function of academic writing. To do this we discuss first how two orders, the grammatical and textual discourse are articulated in teacher´s explanations; second, we focus on the analysis of the grammatical reasoning in interactions between teacher and students. Finally, we systematize a set of considerations to be taken on the preparation of didactic sequences, since we consider that, from the point of view of language teaching, the analysis and research should underpin the practices and their transformations
