Práticas de letramentos e inclusão digital na aula de língua portuguesa

Abstract

In this thesis, we investigate the practices of literacies developed in Portuguese Language classes that took place at the Laboratory of Computer Education (LCE) of public high schools of Jaguaribe region of the state of Ceará, in order to verify whether these practices can promote digital literacy and digital inclusion for students deriving from the implementation of the proposal of official documents on the integration of technology in schools and the performance of teachers in preparing and conducting classes. We developed a survey in two stages. The first one was a documentary research on the theme. At this stage we analyzed the official documents: the Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação, the Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Médio and the PCN +, documents of the Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio, documents of the Sistema de Avaliação da Educação Básica and documents of reference and supporting material for High School of the Department of Education of the State of Ceará. In a second step, we monitored four teachers through interviews, questionnaires and class recordings, including the stages of planning and implementation of activities with the technologies. We investigated the representations about the working relationships with digital technologies, with lesson planning and the selection process of textual genres studied in LCE, reading and writing lessons, and then, the implementation of these classes in order we could check what kind of literacies were potentially present and the teachers Who worked effectively. We noted that the LCE is a differentiated classroom where there is a proposal for the integration of linguistic knowledge to the social and institutional demands, although its use did not fully promoted practices of literacies demanded by the use of technological resources that exist in LCE, because for the teaching of reading and writing there is not the initiative to insert authentic texts placed in relevant social practices to local and /or global cultures. The multimodal, multimediatic and digital literacies were potentially present, but the strategies used by teachers in implementing the lessons and the conduct in relation to the selected text genres did not allow such literacies were achieved in a proposal of greater digital inclusion of students because the actions taken by the teachers were attached to the autonomous literacy model and that meant not contemplating the nature of literacies required by the technological environment. Hence, the textbook was the model followed in most reading activities that were aimed at decoding, and the writing activities were only copies of texts collected from the internet, which meant a subutilization of multimidiatic and multimodal resources available. As to official documents, the teachers said they knew these proposals in PCNs, in the supporting material of SEDUC, in reference documents and in the documents of references for official tests (ENEM and SAEB ), mentionig them in planning and in interviews, but when they were currently implementing their lessons in LCE, the content of the reference documents of ENEM test was reinforced which alone does not work with the literacies needed for digital inclusion, reinforcing our conclusion that the practices of literacies were present in the LCE were under the service of the autonomous model of literacy.
