Teaching grammar in secondary education. Questions and reflections based on the content taught by the language and literature school handbooks

Abstract

This work expresses the first developments of the research project “Grammatical knowledge and training of new readers and writers. A study based on textbooks and school practices”, carried out by researchers from the Faculty of Arts of the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities (UNC). In its first stage, the authors analyze language and literature school manuals for secondary education circulating in Cordoba schools and try to understand how the knowledge that comes specifically from linguistics and/or grammar is articulated in such materials with others that constitute real interdisciplinary fields (related, for example, to the understanding/interpretation of speeches, the processes of writing texts, etc.).
