Scientific article: a kaleidoscopic textual genreABSTRACT
Grounded on the exam of multi facet processes of scientific article writing during a didactic experience developed along the subject called Research Applied to the Portuguese Language Teaching (RAPLT), Modern Language Graduation at Universidade Federal da Paraíba, this research aims at describing a cientific article as a kaleidoscopic genre. We analyzed texts which were written along the RAPLT, taking the Sociodiscursive Interactionism as the theoretical and methodological support (Bronckart 1999, 2006, 2008; Bulea 2010; Schneuwly e Dolz 2004), which have also founded the didactic procedures. The generated data points to the need for broadening the existing definitions about scientific article as a genre and the decisive role of the language micro actions within the didactic strategies used to approach this textual genre.
