Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze a community forum on Orkut dedicated to improve people’s writing skills in Portuguese. The forum dialogues were analyzed in order to determine the underlying concepts of writing and teaching writing expressed by the participants and also the interactional patterns that regulate the operation of the forum. In the analysis, we focus on sociointeractional roles constructed, negotiated and performed in this space. The data was analysed according to a qualitative-interpretive methodology.
