Leitura de gêneros discursivos/textuais digitais nos livros didáticos de língua portuguesa: uma realidade?

Abstract

The present work sought to investigate the treatment given to the reading of digital discursive / textual genres in Portuguese Language Didactic Books (LDLP), approved by the National Program of Didactic Book (PNLD) 2014, in the final years of Elementary School. The impact of new technologies, in language, has led to transformations in reading and writing understood in their traditional form. The presence of multiplicity of languages, modes or semioses in the texts in circulation is constant, mainly in the digital audiovisual media. Faced with this, the students demand from their teachers an active participation in these technological means. As a theoretical reference, we are based on the dialogical theory of discourse, from the studies of Bakhtin (2010); In textual linguistics we rely on Marcuschi (1999, 2005); Koch (2011); Xavier (2005); In the questions about digital technology and hypertext we are based on Lemos and Lévy (2010); Marcuschi (2005); Zacharias (2016); Gomes (2013); On literacy in Soares (1998, 2002); Red (2013); Coscarelli (2016); Caiado (2011); And, on multimodality, we use the discussions of Santaella (2014); Among other authors cited throughout the research. It should be noted that the edition of PNLD 2014 has started a new trajectory, towards the progressive incorporation of digital educational content. However, it is necessary to observe how these proposals are presented in the Portuguese Language Textbooks approved by PNLD 2014. We established categories of analysis (BARDIN, 1979) in six LDLP collections for quantitative analysis, totaling 24 books. In the qualitative analysis we analyzed 02 collections, totaling 08 LDLP. A new way of making a society happens probably with the development of online communities and social networks. The research results showed that it is necessary for teachers to appropriate these new digital technologies, which, if well used, can become an effective way to deal with the practices of a social and dialogic language.
