Letramentos descoloniais: proposições pedagógicas para o ensino de língua portuguesa

Abstract

In this research, I establish critical dialogues with the field of Decolonial Studies to think about the culture of colonial violence from its conformation as a political system to contemporary rearrangements and their interrelationships with the field of language. From the understanding that colonial violence continues to be the basis of social relations in Brazil, I point out the need to think about decolonial and intercultural pedagogical practices for teaching Portuguese as a mother tongue. In this way, dialogue with the study carried out in the field of New Literacies and Applied Linguistics to elaborate a pedagogical proposal aimed at the development of practices of decolonial literacies, in the sense of outlining a culturally sensitive, critical and creative approach. This discussion gains materiality from the pedagogical support material entitled Decolonial literacies: what? because? and how to do it?, which is presented and discussed in this work. The present investigation is part of the paradigm of qualitative research, of an interpretive nature, in the field of applied linguistics, as well as being characterized as a developmental research, since it proposes and analyzes a pedagogical support material.
