FRANCISCO JUNIOR, Wilmo Ernesto. Produção textual em diferentes gêneros: um caso na formação de professores de química. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2013, vol.29, n.02, pp.201-224. ISSN 0102-4698.

In this study, we report a reading activity performed with chemistry undergraduate students from a federal university. Reading was not performed during classroom time and the activity also involved text production, in groups of up to three people, in four distinct writing genres: letter, poem, cartoon strip and essay. Text productions evidenced different qualities such as creativity and variety of linguistic resources. Results also showed that cartoon strips and poems allowed greater freedom in textual expression, perhaps because of their artistic characteristics, while letters and essays comprised a greater diversity of text types. Literal copies were not observed, indicating that the writing of a text in a distinct genre allowed students to express important aspects of critical reading, such as one’s own creation of texts and the recreation of ideas from reading.
