THE DISCURSIVE ACTION CAPACITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE CONTEXT OF TEXT PRODUCTION IN WRITTEN TEACHING-LEARNING SITUATION

This article presents partially a doctoral research focused on the instrumental appropriation of a text genre - the complaint letter - throughout the Sociodiscursive Interationism (ISD) theoretical and methodological perspective. The focus in this study concentrates on the approach of the first genre use outline - the textual production context -, from a discursive point of view. So, the concept of action capacity is settled as category of analysis of the text genre in teaching-learning Portuguese situation. The article points at two analytical moments: the action capacity didactization in the didactic sequence project developed by the field research; the development of this capacity from the crossing of the initial and the final production of a complaint letter of one student. The results show the relation between the outcome of the student's production and the didactic intervention towards this genre use outline. Adapted from the source document
