The analysis categories were a) indications and support they received of teachers for the preparation of briefs, b) the practices of the students to make their writings and c) motivations that students had to develop them. The instructions of teachers were predominantly about format (extension, font). Students valued academic writing and considered it necessary to learn and to develop informed opinions, but most teachers rated the writings based on spelling and grammar. It is necessary to have online and presence feedback for the achievement of the literacity competence
