Errores lingüísticos y secuencias textuales: un estudio sobre la escritura en el último curso preuniversitario.

In this paper, Error Analysis is applied to the teaching of writing in Spanish as a first language. As the main theoretical bases we have followed Eugenio Coseriu's model, which establishes three levels of linguistic competence: general linguistic competence, particular linguistic competence and textual competence. We have analyzed and classified errors taken from 138 texts written by 46 students belonging to the last course of Secondary School (second course of Bachillerato). Our aim has been to discover the set of correlations among errors and textual sequences (narrative and argumentative). Therefore we have checked in the corpus to what degree some types of error are independent of textual sequence, whereas in others, sequence is essential. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
