Research output: Contribution to conference without a publisher/journalPaperResearchpeer-review

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a study investigating to which degree students in a Danish lower secondary school (grade 8) can learn to read and write texts from a specialized domain if we plan a mush fake-situation. How do they manage to write texts, what knowledge do they rely on and to what extent do these texts resemble other similar specialized texts when it comes to genre, multimodality and leksikogrammatical choices?
