SILVA, ADRIANE ALVES DA  and  PAN, MIRIAM APARECIDA GRACIANO DE SOUZA. LITERACY AND PROFESSORS’ PRACTICES: AN ANALYSIS OF LITERATURE. Educ. rev. [online]. 2022, vol.38, e26784.  Epub May 03, 2022. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-469826784.

This study aims to review Brazilian research on literacy practices for undergraduate professors. We reviewed SciELO and Portal de Periódicos CAPES. From 2013 to 2019, 20 articles were retrieved and fulfilled inclusion criteria. Studies’ main statements were interpreted using a dialogical analysis of the discourse method. Few studies directly addressed the association between literacy practices and undergraduate professional training in Brazilian higher education. Among these studies, there was a predominance of the procedural technical guidance method, which seeks to improve reading and writing practices in undergraduate courses, particularly for human sciences. The relevance of literacy while becoming a higher education professor in Brazil is discussed in light of previous international research. An interdisciplinary approach, guided by a discursive conception of language, may foster improvements for professors’ practices from different areas of knowledge.

Keywords : Professors’ Practices; Higher Education; Literacies.
