O (re)significado da leitura de contos para jovens e adultos privados de liberdade

Abstract

The theme of this dissertation came from my concerns as a teacher of Criminal Unit, teaching Portuguese for private students of freedom in the form of Education of Young and Adult (EJA), always reflect on the theme of reading and worried me in how to motivate them a constant practice. The research topic was defined in reading the literary genre tale. Justify the choice of narrative, tale feature as a permanent dialogue with life. The tale excites and stimulates ideas in discussions. The research geral objective I propose is to (re)signification of reading stories to young people and adults deprived of freedom. How to (re)signified, I understand a new reading with positions and a meaning that goes beyond the text of the speech and interact with life and with others. Some questions guided this research: How to include in the pedagogical practices, sociointeractional reading conception as social practice? How to propose pedagogical practices that enable the student to (re)signify the story read? As from the reading of short stories motivate writing, giving voices to these students? Initially, I made a short theoretical base on literature as a human right, essential in the process of humanization of people, dialoguing with authors such as Candido (2004) and Cosson (2012). In theoretical basis, I sought to analyze the different conceptions of reading, based on Bakhtin (2003); Koch and Elias (2012); Sole (1998) and Geraldi (1997). As conception of reading to support both classes taught, as the analysis of these, I have chosen one sociointeractional and reading as a social practice design. For this purpose, the authors that dialogue are: Rojo (2004); Kleiman; Moita Lopes (1995) and Fairclough (2001). The research method focused on Applied Linguistics guidelines following a qualitative-interpretative approach. To this end, I performed a didactic intervention project in the perspective proposed by Gasparin (2012), in other words, the Plan for Teaching Work (PTD). Analysis of the classes was carried through my diary and student written productions. As a result, the application of lessons shows the voices of the students in both oral (in listening moments of his interpretations) as in times of writing in which students produce other stories, poems, phrases and illustrations. The students were able to (re)signify the reading of tales read in accordance with the relations established with their impressions of the world, as well as listening to their own colleagues and realizing that we can weave different understandings about what we read. Thus, students extend this continuity of meaning out of school sphere and this implies the reading as a social practice
