Os eventos de letramento de discentes do Projeto Universidade Para Todos: uma análise qualitativa

Abstract

The University for everybody’s Project (Universidade para Todos Project - UPT) was an initiative of the Bahia Department of Education in partnership with state universities (UNEB, UEFS, UESB, UESC), which objective was to strengthen a policy aimed at inserting students from state public school into higher education. In this context, this study aims to analyze the literacy events in which UPT students are immersed, in order to know and understand which text genres are the most accessible and what relationships they have with these communicative events. The study has a diagnostic character and has as instrument for corpus generation the mixed questionnaire, which was applied to 31 students from this project in two public schools in the city of Salvador (BA). We are theoretically anchored in the concepts of literacy and literacy events (ROJO, 2009; KLEIMAN, 2014; STREET; CASTANHEIRA, 2014; STREET, 2000; BAPTISTA, 2010). After analyzing the data, it was noted that the diverse nature of the students makes access to literacy events also varied. Moreover, the relationship that remains with the texts also depends on the access and diversity of communicative events, thus influencing the learning of the Portuguese language with a view to the purpose that the UPT proposes.
