The discursive action and the textual production at school

Abstract

In this article, maintaining as object the analysis of writing a complaint letter process anchored at the didactic sequences methodology, we present a theoretical framework of the communicative action in order to achieve a conceptual frame regarding the discursive action used in our doctoral studies as parameter for the analysis of the textual production for the language teaching-learning purpose. This frame is result of the association of concepts from Activity Theory by Leontiev and their appropriation by researchers affiliated to the Socio-discursive Interactionism. The awareness regarding the process that evolves the discursive action raises as extremely important for clarification of the aspects involved in the teaching of text production process at school.
