dc.description.abstractThis is an interpretive qualitative study which uses linguisitic and intertextual analysis to examine student writing in a first year university economics course. The research has investigated the acquisition of the new academic discourse by drawing on Bakhtin's concept of intertextuality to consider new discourses, discourse models and literacy and learning practices that students draw on as they write their essays. Gee's theories of situated meanings and cultural models were used as tools for analysing the ways in which students draw on existing linguistic resources to access new discourses and to make sense of new concepts.en_ZA
