Abstract

This paper is part of our current doctoral research, that aims to investigate literacy practices in Higher Education, specifically, in an undergraduate course of Language and Literature at an public university, having as subjects students that are engaged in supervised internship. As the theoretical basis we used the new literacy studies – NLS – and perspective that seeks to combine academic and digital literacies. This is a qualitative research in the area of Applied Linguistic and is ethnographically based. We will be present the analysis of "voices" of the students of data generated from the responses to two questionnaires administered to students about their practices in university in order to investigate the presence of "hidden features" when they write academic genres in their course, the presence (or not) of the "institutional practice of mystery" in their writing activities and the relation between academic practices and the digital. Our aim is to contribute to the development of studies on academic literacies and to promote reflections about Higher Education (public) in order to review some academic practices especially in this university course.
