RESUMO

This study was designed based on Writing and Reading Research guidelines namely text writing for Specific Purposes, which prioritize teaching a language in a given setting and context aiming at solving communication problems in specific areas. Such teaching is based on eliciting students previous language knowledge. According to necessity analyses, the difficulties of the first year students enrolled in Business Management night courses at the Faculdade de Ciências Econômicas, Administrativas e Contábeis de São Sebastião do Paraíso were diagnosed. Based on the data collected, a proposal to improve students communicative performance was devised, both for real text writing and text comprehension. For this work, text writing was elected as an integrating axis between teaching and learning and strategic proposals for text production in an in-class context were designed. All strategies were based on a Writing Project which combined qualitative and quantitative approaches. Results show that, as students gain more awareness of their own responsibility for learning, they also found it more significant, and began to write better quality texts, when compared to those written in college entrance exams.
