- Abstract
Though textbooks are the most used tool in the language classroom, there is little research regarding textbooks of Portuguese as a foreign language, particularly regarding writing skills. Following research trends, the initial exploratory study started with methodology (descriptive and content analysis). It continued with a content analysis of the author and coordinator introductions to the texts. Finally, results are presented to try to understand how elementary level Portuguese as a foreign language textbooks promote teaching writing to young adults. Writing activities from six books (A1 and A2 competence level) have been classified and analyzed. Results show that writing competence is undervalued and framed in behavioral and audio-oral methodologies. This shows there is a certain resistance to adapting them to current theoretical and methodological frames of teaching and learning a foreign language.
