Practices of Writing and Argumentation in a Scientific Event for Undergraduate Students: a Study Based on Bakhtin's Concept of Complete Utterance

Abstract

This work investigates the participation of undergraduate students as authors and readers of articles in an online scientific event in order to verify if they interact through complete utterances. Bakhtin's concept of complete utterance and the principle of reading and writing with functional purposes were used as theoretical bases in order to support a better understanding of the learning context in which the research is inserted. The event in which the data were collected takes place on a blog, under a discipline of reading and text production, which invites students to write and publish their papers, comment on other three papers and participate in the discussion on the post of their own articles. To conduct the case of study, thirty comments from students were selected, from two posts of articles. The result of the analysis suggests that the students recognized a situation of interaction and showed their engagement while they were participating in the activity, exercising their skills of reading, writing and argumentation.
