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.
