A argumentação nas salas de aula de língua portuguesa: uma discussão sobre a escrita em situações reais de uso visando ao exercício da cidadania

Abstract

This dissertation discusses the teaching of Portuguese Language in Paraíba, specifically the work with argumentation, from the Portuguese classes in the High School of a public school in João Pessoa: State School State School of Elementary and Middle School Professor Olivina Olívia Carneiro da Wedge. I start from the problem of research that consists in the absence of the formation of students for argumentation as a way of using written language for life, for the exercise of citizenship. We are questioning the ways of approaching textual production in the classroom, especially the argumentation. The general objective is to verify and analyze whether the public school faculty, taken as a research locus, guarantees to its students the linguistic competence for the argument that serves to its public as a tool of citizen exercise in daily life. In order to carry out the research, data were collected through two models of questionnaires: one for the teacher and another for the student, in which they answered, above all, about the use of argumentation in Portuguese classes. The discussion about textual production was based on the discussions of MARCCUSCHI (2008, 20110, 2012), COROA (2006), GUEDES (2009) and aspects of the argumentative text and the argumentation. In this dissertation we give a Teaching Guidance Guide for two purposes: a) discussion of texts in the area of citizen's rights (Law on Access to Information, Consumer Defense Code, Special Court) and b) production of argumentative texts aimed at everyday practices that require a more formal language and use of argumentation. In this way, we hope to contribute to the deepening of studies and work, with arguments in the Portuguese classes of High School and propose a Portuguese language teaching based on the production of argumentative texts, more functional and efficient in the daily life of the student.
