Abstract

Based on Textual Analysis of Speech, this work studies utterance responsibility, through modality category, and discursive representation, through referentiation and predication categories, stated in Practicum report genre produced by pre-service  teachers  in  English.  The  result  shows  that  pre-service  teachers:  a) imputes points of view (PoV) to others, expressing their position of agreement or disagreement; b) expresses their own PoV, based on theoretical and practical experience; and c) creates positive discursive representation of the objects that are  related  to  their  own  practices.  We  observed  that  this  genre  favored  the inscription of students own PoV and positive discursive representations.
