    Academic reading and writing at the university: Writing centers at a glance
    (Corporación Universitaria Lasallista, 2015-01) Castellano Ascencio, Milton Daniel; Peña Santodomíngo, Judith María; Villa Urrego, María Alexandra
    This text corresponds to a reflection derived from our ongoing research project: “Academic Reading and Writing Center at the University of San Buenaventura, Medellin branch5”. In this regard, we present the initial phase of the research process in its current state. This first advance includes a brief review of some research projects on reading and writing in college that have been developed in some national and international contexts; likewise, it presents a brief approach to the history of the writing centers that have emerged in response to this problem at the higher education level. In this process we also address some of the conceptual categories that make up the central part of the discussion. Finally, we present some of the initial conclusions reached by the research team at this point in the process.

    Estudio lexicológico de las fórmulas de tratamiento nominales en el habla de Medellín
    (Corporación Universitaria Lasallista, 2013) Castellano Ascencio, Milton Daniel
    This study characterizes, lexically, the nominal treatment formulas used by speakers from Medellin, taking as analysis points the morphological processes that intervene in the formation of the formulas and the practical-semantic values produced in the moment of the appeal. Concerning the methodological aspect, a lexical-graphical methodology has been used, allowing the construction of a corpus in which the formulas are classified according to the lexical formation mechanism that intervenes and to the practical-semantic values that influence the meaning of these lexical units. The article remarks the fact that the displacement of common names out of a nominal function, in order to create an appellate one, involves the appearance of a semantic load that expresses several connotations in which the morphological component also plays an important role.
