Teaching of writing

Comparison between publisher companies in Spanish as a mother tongue and as a second language

Abstract

The research is focused on language’s didactics and the studies about Spanish as a second language and, more specifically, in
the development of teaching of writing. This way, the idea is to contribute to the theoretical reflection about the publishing construction of didactic activities of written production that raise a mixed corpus of handouts of the teaching of Spanish, analyzing through what type of practices are introduced to the students of the written language, and how this goal is presented
from publishing proposals in particular. This paper is qualitative-interpretative, and we will work about a double corpus of handouts. First of all, the one that belongs to the handouts dedicated to the teaching of the Spanish as a second language (SSL), second, those destined to the teaching of the language for native speakers. We will try to interpret and compare how writing is approached and built as a teaching object in both, the corpus of Spanish as a mother tongue (L1), and as a second language. We will also highlight which aspects of the target language are recovered and taken into account more deeply for teaching in handouts of SSL.
