摘要

英语作为科学通用语的增长,以及提高巴西大学国际排名的压力,增加了对英语语言支持的需求,以提高当地研究人员的学术素养,特别是在为国际出版物撰写期刊文章等领域。为这些素养的发展提供有针对性的支持所面临的挑战包括有限的课程空间、冲突的时间表,以及单个机构往往在地理上分散校园的事实。混合式学习为解决这些挑战提供了一种可能的方法,因为它提供了灵活性,即部分面对面授课,部分在线授课和异步授课。本文报告了2018-19年圣保罗大学医学院和农学院研究生研究型文章写作课程的设计、交付和评估情况。本文证实,混合学习形式可以是提高学术素养的一种成功手段,同时确定了那些更容易和更难教授的领域,以及研究文章类型的哪些方面会导致新手研究生作家的具体问题。

Developing Academic Literacies in Medicine and Agriculture: The Design, Delivery and Evaluation of Blended Learning Support for Research Writing in English
The growth of English as a scientific lingua franca and the pressure to raise the international ranking of Brazilian universities have increased the demand for English language support to develop academic literacies amongst local researchers, particularly in areas such as writing journal articles for international publication. The challenges to delivering targeted support for the development of such literacies include limited curricular space, clashing timetables, and the fact that single institutions often have geographically dispersed campuses. Blended learning offers a possible means of addressing these challenges in the flexibility afforded by course delivery that is partly face-to-face and partly online and asynchronous. This paper reports on the design, delivery and evaluation of courses in research article writing delivered to postgraduate students in the Faculty of Medicine and School of Agriculture at the University of Sao Paulo in 2018-19. The paper confirms that the blended learning format can be a successful means of enhancing academic literacies, while identifying those areas that are easier and more difficult to teach, and which aspects of the research article genre cause novice graduate writers specific problems.
