HERNANDEZ MENDEZ, Edith. Vernacular literacy practice by freshmen: Motivation and demotivation. Sinéctica [online]. 2021, n.56, e1209. Epub 06-Maio-2021. ISSN 2007-7033. https://doi.org/10.31391/s2007-7033(2021)0056-008.
In this study, we analyzed the vernacular literacy practice of 32 freshmen students from a public university in southern Mexico using a mixed method approach, with narratives or biographical experiences, and a sociocultural theoretical perspective. The results show a limited vernacular literacy practice in as much as quantity, types, genres, and modalities of texts. Six dimensions of motivation were examined: family and family context, teachers and school context, friends, interest in writing, movies, and other media, learning and personal and cultural growth. As sources of demotivation, we identified: family and family context, teachers and school context, distractors, and personal problems, and reading comprehension problems.
