LETRAMENTO INFORMACIONAL E LITERÁRIO NA EDUCAÇÃO BÁSICA

Abstract

This research thesis focuses on the relationship between the elementary school reader and the digital library, so that relevant information relative to literary formation can be accessed and easily managed by the student. This investigation can be characterized as a dynamic approach to Systemic and Integral Action Research (PAIS: Pesquisa-Ação Integral e Sistêmica). This forms part of Anthropological Pedagogy that has as its object an educational process that involves the principles of Anthropology and Pedagogy. Consequently, we have a methodological proposal of research action of the educational act in the classroom assessed by the library. The interpretation of this data considers the signs, indications, and evidence of the CEPAE-UFG Elementary School, Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil (Centro de Ensino e Pesquisa Aplicada à Educação - Universidade Federal de Goiás-Brasil). It also takes into account the schools physical structure: classrooms, school library, computer rooms. The interpretation of the data of this experience was based on categorical analysis relative to the following concepts: reader, information literacy, and information literacy applied to literature. The latter were the reference and object of researchers investigation. Conceptual approaches relative to information literacy and information literacy applied to literature, reader, and the reading of literature were thus constructed. So as to define the concepts of reader and reading, the theoretical works of Wolfgang Iser and Antonio Cândido were pursued. On literacy, literary and informational, Magda Soares, Jack Goody & Ian Watt, John R. Bormuth, Graça Paulino, Egon de Oliveira Rangel, Bernadete Campello, Kelly Cristine G.D. Gasque and Carol C. Kuhlthau were relied on. The readers experience, successes and failures, through dialogue, amidst a theoretical approach and results that have been evidenced along a journey with the students of the sixth grade classes of CEPAE-UFG Elementary School has been discerned. This allowed us to identify the practice of literary and informational reading in the classroom and library environment.
