A retextualização como recurso relevante para um ensino técnico mais produtivo

Abstract

The present research aims to analyze aspects that serve to outline and characterize a didactic-pedagogical proposal for the teaching of Portuguese Language in technical courses, through the use of textual genres linked to the area of professional practice. Therefore, we use the notion of discursive genres established by Bakhtin (2011) taken up and reconfigured within the sociodiscursive perspective of Textual Linguistics. We take, then, as a theoretical-methodological contribution the studies of the Bakhitinian circle about the discursive genres and the rereading that Marchuschi (2007) and Rojo et. al. (2015) make the theory exposed by Bakhtin (2011). We prepared a didactic proposal for reading, understanding and producing the textual type Circular Letter in the teaching of Portuguese Language within Basic Technical and Technological Education, focusing on the first year classes of the technical course in Agroecology at CTUR. The research proposal appears as part of an important reflection on what to teach when teaching Portuguese language to future agricultural professionals. Then, we prepared a didactic sequence that aimed at the final production of a Technical Recommendation. For this, we take as a base the idea of retextualization defended by Dell'Isola (2007) and Marcuschi (2010a). We present a real situation in which the technician needs to transmit guidance to a producer and we ask the students to make the Recommendation based on the Circular Letter genre and the knowledge of other disciplines. We consider that the understanding of the emergence of genders from real communicative situations is fundamental for the construction of a broader linguistic knowledge. The Circular Letter genre, as well as the Technical Recommendation, integrates the daily life of the agricultural technician, moving through the legal, documentary and professional discursive spheres, whose speeches cover our ways of receiving and transmitting information and being in the society in which we live, hence the relevance of his study to train, not only technicians, but citizens, capable of placing themselves in the world through the use of language.
