As instruções iniciais e intervenções feitas pelo professor com o intuito de auxiliar o escrevente na tarefa de escritura e reescritura são levadas em consideração na análise, no sentido de verificar o papel desempenhado por elas durante o processo de escrita/reescrita. As justificativas dessa proposta residem, de um lado, no enfoque teórico fundamentado na intertextualidade estrita, já que estudos realizados no Brasil sobre reescrita voltam-se mais para a prática pedagógica de reescritura; e, de outro lado, no recorte do contexto universitário para a investigação, pois pesquisas sobre reescrita têm priorizado os ensinos Fundamental e Médio, sendo menos frequentes os trabalhos com alunos universitários. O corpus é formado por 21 conjuntos de texto, que incluem: proposta de produção; primeira versão do aluno; comentários do professor; versão reescrita. Os resultados apontam para uma preferência por formas de intertextualidade implícita na retomada de textos da proposta e pela utilização da paráfrase como processo de reformulação do texto, indicando uma tendência à diluição do texto alheio como modo de absorção pelo texto, com uso restrito de formas que explicitam a fonte das informações retomadas / Based on the strict perspective of intertextuality (KOCH, 2009), this study investigates the production of text rewritten guided by the teacher in the university context, in order to describe the processes by which the clerk manages the input of others in your text itself, both in producing the first draft, and in rewriting it. The initial instruction and interventions made by the teacher in order to assist the clerk in the task of writing and rewriting are taken into account in the analysis, in order to verify the role played by them during the process of writing / rewriting. The justification of this proposal lie on one side, the theoretical approach based on strict intertextuality, since studies performed in Brazil on rewriting is turning more to teaching the practice of rewriting, and on the other hand, the clipping of the university context to investigation, because studies have focused on rewriting the elementary and high schools, and less frequently works with college students. The corpus consists of 21 sets of text, comprising: a production proposal, the first version of the student, teacher comments, rewritten version. The results indicate a preference for forms of intertextuality implicit in the resumption of the draft text and the use of paraphrase as a process of redrafting the text, indicating a tendency to dilute the other's text so as to absorb the text, in limited ways that explain the source of the information included

Creative Writing as a teachable artistic practice, and reinforcing its identity with an appropriate pedagogical approach, has been a vibrant research area for some years now. Yet, despite a strong increase in writing courses all over the globe, there has been little research into how creative practitioners can actually contribute to facilitate the process of skill development in higher education learners, especially in the public sector universities across Sindh, Pakistan. In an effort to introduce Creative Writing as an academic discipline to government universities in Sindh, the present research sought to observe the impact of a training programme on English fiction on a sample of native learners. A total of thirteen students volunteered for this project. The research sample was selected from a population of second year undergraduates, enrolled in literature courses at the Institute of English Language and Literature (IELL) in the University of Sindh, Jamshoro, Pakistan (USJP); wherein Creative Writing had hitherto been a non-existent area of studies. Students were offered a twenty-nine session modular-workshop, aimed at exploring and expediting their artistic abilities in the short time span of a single semester. To ensure the trustworthiness of findings, the entire procedure was documented under the guidance of the researcher’s supervisory team. A post-workshop evaluation survey was also used for attaining student feedback. The setup of assessment items and analysis constructs of students’ narrative portfolios were adapted from validated sources and aligned with the context of this study. However, neither the feedback nor the assessment of students’ work was counted as the findings of this research. Unlike non-artistic inquiries, the post-training creative output gathered from project participants was interpreted as the final research outcome. Methodologically, this process was conducted following a matrix of three practice-oriented research paradigms; whereas “performative research” was selected as the principle data creation and presentation strategy. The resulting research insight has exhibited an in-depth understanding of approaches that could facilitate fiction composition abilities of learners from different language backgrounds, while writing in English. It also allows practitioners to consider non-typical methods of research to contribute holistically to the existing body of knowledge in the field.
