dc.description.abstract | Este estudio compara el uso de conectores por escritores colombianos de textos académicos en inglés como segunda lengua entre dos grupos de estudiantes (escritores de ensayos comparativos ŒCEW) de cuarto a sexto semestre, y (escritores de proyecto de grado- RPW) en décimo semestre, matriculados en licenciatura en inglés de la Universidad Industrial de Santander. Los investigadores estuvieron a cargo de la recolección de información. Se decidió usar como base un estudio cuantitativo cuyos resultados serán analizados cualitativamente para así encontrar casos comunes de mal uso de conectores. Entre los instrumentos utilizados, dos corpus, se escogieron por la técnica de muestreo aleatorio simple y un programa de análisis de textos (WST4) se uso también. Los resultados cuantitativos mostraron que RPW uso mas conectores que CEW. RPW, el cual esta conformado por un total de 90.961 palabras, uso 507 conectores en la totalidad del texto, que es un 0.557381%, mientras CEW utilizó tan solo 192 conectores de las 20.286 palabras en los textos, lo que corresponde a un 0.946465% de uso excesivo de conectores por CEW, por esa razón RPW tiene poco uso de conectores. Referente al mal uso, RPW tuvo menos errores (13.86%) comparado con CEW (26.06%). Algunas veces, los conectores son usados pero pueden ser removidos por distintas razones, y ningún otro lo puede sustituir. Además, puntuación, confusiones de registro en cuanto a los conectores que son adecuados para contextos académicos. | |
dc.description.abstractenglish | This papers compares the use of connectives by EFL Colombian writers of English academic texts among two groups of students (Comparative Essay Writers-CEW) from levels 4-6, and (Research Project Writers-RPW) from level 10, enrolled in the English Language Teaching Program at Universidad Industrial de Santander. Field workers were in charge of the data collection. It was decided to have as a basis a quantitative study whose results will be analyzed qualitatively to find out common cases of misuse of connectives. Among the instruments used, two sets of corpora, chosen by simple random sampling techniques, and a text analysis software (WST4) can be found. Quantitative findings showed that RPW used more connectives than CEW. On the one hand RPW used 507 connectives among the 90.961 words from the whole text, leading to 0.55% of connectives. On the other hand, CEW used only 192 connectives from the 20.286 words in the texts, which is a 0.94% of connectives. This shows that was overuse by CEW. As to misuse, RPW had fewer mistakes (13.86%) compared to CEW (26.06%). Sometimes a connective is used but it is possible to erase it for different reasons, and no other can be used instead. Another problem that emerged when doing the quantitative analysis of the writing samples had to do with punctuation. There are paragraphs where too many connectives are used. Another problem found in the learners™ corpora was the use of spoken features in academic writing. | |
