Leer y escribir en la universidad from edX

La comprensión textual requiere que desarrolles algunas habilidades para que puedas seguir el hilo conductor de los textos, identificar su propósito comunicativo y su tipología. La escritura, por su parte, te exige que presentes textos coherentes, cohesivos, precisos, claros y concisos.

Este curso te llevará por una trayectoria que inicia en lo más sencillo (los componentes de la lectura literal y la concepción de las etapas de escritura) y termina en lo más complejo (la lectoescritura analítica-crítica propositiva) para que logres el aprendizaje de las estrategias adecuadas en este campo de la comprensión y la producción académica.

Está dividido en cuatro módulos: nivel literal, nivel inferencial, nivel intertextual y nivel analítico-crítico propositivo.
