Experience report of the "academic writing course" extension project

Abstract

Considering the development of literacy among professionals and academics in various areas of knowledge, it can be seen that this practice includes various actions, such as speaking, listening, reading and writing. Even so, activities related to writing tend to be seen as difficult to carry out. Therefore, this Pibiex Project of the Academic Writing Course sought to present in a clear and exemplary way the skills involved in this activity, subject to the appropriation of certain academic-scientific genres, going beyond the use of the standard norm of the language. The initiative provided a better development of knowledge on this subject, also considering its application to undergraduate or postgraduate projects. It can be said that academic writing is an activity that involves putting academic knowledge into texts that can be circulated. Therefore, the use of this practice enables the development of what is considered "practical/mechanical" into its "theoretical/written" form.
