Estado Y Futuro Del Derecho Económico Internacional En América Latina. I Conferencia Bianual De La Red Latinoamericana De Derecho Económico Internaciona

This essay is a reflection on the process of writing the first and second draft of the Literature Review chapter in the seminar of Academic Writing, involving peer-feedback and teacher feedback with a group of twelve in-service English teachers in their first year of the Masters Program in Education with Emphasis on English Didactics. The teachers write their Literature Review chapter under the guidance of the instructors of the seminars Language Teaching Methodology, Research I and II, Materials Development, and Academic Writing. The reflection is supported by theoretical considerations that shed light on the practical tasks in the course of Academic Writing. Similarly, I evaluate where we are in the process, articulate concerns and envision future directions to improve the process of academic writing.
