CASTRO-CIFUENTES, Mauricio Alejandro. Academic discourse genres in a pedagogy program: descriptive profile of four cases. EduSol [online]. 2024, vol.24, n.87, pp. 191-196.  Epub 15-Abr-2024. ISSN 1729-8091.

The aim of this paper is to describe four discursive genres used in academic literacy activities (reading and writing) in a university in south-central Chile. The essay considers the methodological guidelines of Giovanni Parodi and colleagues in the establishment of a microcorpus. It is concluded that the four genres constitute epistemic practices that favor the development of linguistic skills and the possibility of insertion in specialized communities. Likewise, two key elements for the use of genres are their link with the learning outcomes of the curriculum and the opportunities for articulation with other subjects.
