Teorías implícitas sobre escritura de estudiantes y formadores de pedagogía

This research aimed to identify the implicit theories on writing by pedagogy students, educators and teachers. The methodology is quantitative and included a representative sample of pedagogy teachers and students from two Chilean regions (n = 337). They answered a validated questionnaire about writing. Finally, it was confirmed that students use simultaneously transmissional and transactional implicit theories and that subjects in fourth-year of pedagogy programs use unevolved theories as compared to those used by first-year subjects. In addition, it was verified that teachers have conceptions similar to those by the students.
