Paulo Freire e a língua portuguesa: uma análise sobre o uso de gêneros textuais como prática libertadora para o pensamento crítico/reflexivo e motivacional com alunos do 4º módulo do Proeja do curso Segurança do Trabalho do IFAP/Campus Macapá

Abstract

This work brings discussions around Youth and Adult Education and investigative analyzes made from interdisciplinary pedagogical strategies with the use of textual genres in the construction of a liberating education for critical/ reflective, meaningful and motivational learning, based on Freire's conceptions with strengthening of pedagogical practices inherent to the identity of PROEJA subjects. The research had as locus the IFAP/ Campus Macapá and the subjects were 4 teachers of different disciplines (common and technical core), as well as students of a class of the 4th module of the Occupational Health and Safety course of PROEJA. The research was based on a case study of qualitative approach and, for data collection, Pedagogical Workshops were carried out as an intervention strategy, planned and applied in that class. The techniques used were observation, conversation circles and the application of semi-structured questionnaire for the research subjects. The objective was: to analyze the contributions of Freire’s conceptions in the construction of a liberating education for critical/reflective thinking, from the use of textual genres motivating students to recognize themselves as social subjects with the right to education. The theoretical constructions were developed in a systematic study in the scientific field related to the proposal of the theme developed in the research. The results showed the interdisciplinary feasibility of the use of textual genres as a dynamic didactic tool that performs various social functions in promoting a significant teaching and valuing the knowledge learned throughout the students’ lives, where, associating it with the systematized knowledge of school knowledge, it promoted an education close to the reality of PROEJA students in a conscious, autonomous and motivational way, essential foundations conceived in the Freire’s conception.
