OLAVE ARIAS, Giohanny. Critical Dimension of Academic Rewriting. Textmetric Analysis in a Language Teacher Training Course. Folios [online]. 2019, n.50, pp.41-50. ISSN 0123-4870.  https://doi.org/10.17227/folios.50-10175.

In this paper we report the initial results of an ongoing research whose objective is to analyze the modes of appearance of social imaginaries about reading and writing, in the texts produced at the beginning of the training of teachers of Spanish language and literature. Within a longitudinal quasi-experimental methodological design, we use textometry tools (Reinert analysis or lexical worlds and factorial correspondence analysis) to compare the answers written and rewritten by first semester students, at the beginning and at the end of a course of comprehension and textual production, related to the question Why study the Degree in Spanish and Literature, in "times of crisis"? In the results, we interpret the self-reformulations in the rewritings from their modifications in the networks of meanings around the teaching profession. We conclude that the new meaning links that appear in the student's rewritings show an incipient integration of political concerns when thinking about the teaching of reading and writing. The path we have taken advances from academic literacy to political literacy in the training of teachers of Spanish language and literature.

Keywords : textometry; textual reformulation; academic literacy; teacher training; political thinking.
