Resumo: Studies in academic literacies emerge from the necessity to expand and/or investigate the opportunities for students’ engagement and agency in academia. The university is an educational environment, which requires students to deal with a diverse range of social situations involving genres such as research articles, reading projects, oral presentations, among others, and their social roles implied. Based on the model of academic literacies by Lea and Street (1998), we analyse the prospects of actions a public University of Paraná State has (or has not) provided to facilitate the development and inclusion of its students in the production and understanding of academic genres, focusing on the opportunities for engaging with texts in Portuguese (mother tongue), English, Spanish, and/or French. In order to gather data, an online questionnaire was used and a focus group run with 4th-year students of an English Language Teacher Education course. The results show considerable shortcomings and needs for improvement especially concerning academic literacy development in additional languages and the necessity for more opportunities to supply demands shown in this study from the data analysed.

A universidade é um ambiente educacional, que exige que os alunos lidem com uma gama diversificada de situações sociais envolvendo gêneros como artigos de pesquisa, projetos de leitura, apresentações orais, entre outros, e seus papéis sociais implicados. Com base no modelo de letramentos acadêmicos de Lea e Street (1998), analisamos as perspectivas de ações que uma universidade pública do estado do Paraná tem (ou não) proporcionado para facilitar o desenvolvimento e a inclusão de seus alunos na produção e compreensão de gêneros acadêmicos, com foco nas oportunidades de interação com textos em português (língua materna), inglês, espanhol e/ou francês. Para a coleta de dados, foi utilizado um questionário online e um grupo focal com alunos do 4º ano do curso de Formação de Professores de Língua Inglesa. Os resultados mostram deficiências consideráveis ​​e necessidades de melhoria, principalmente no que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento do letramento acadêmico em idiomas adicionais e a necessidade de mais oportunidades para suprir as demandas apresentadas neste estudo a partir dos dados analisados.ANPOLL2022-04-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/168010.18309/ranpoll.v53i1.1680Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 53 No. 1 (2022): Language Studies; 236-252Revista da Anpoll; v. 53 n. 1 (2022): Estudos Linguísticos; 236-2521982-78301414-756410.18309/ranpoll.v53i1reponame:Revista da ANPOLL (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)instacron:ANPOLLenghttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/1680/1227Copyright (c) 2022 Revista da Anpollhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva Sanches, Bruno Cristovão, Vera Lúcia Lopes2022-08-12T20:01:53Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1680Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2023-01-13T09:48:59.872835Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false
