As histórias em quadrinhos nas aulas de língua portuguesa como instrumento de leitura e de produção autoral

Abstract

The thesis of this work defeats a critical study about the usage of comics as an educational research and a way of expression in Portuguese Language classes of regular school. It is recommended by two documents that rules this subject, LDB (Lei de Diretrizes e Bases) and PCN (Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais), when they refer to the usage of a variety of textual genres. Considering this, it is not possible to keep working with this language in classes only as a strategy to teach contents. Developing the ideas of Will Eisner, Irandé Antunes and Paulo Ramos, we consider students are able to learn aspects and principles of the Portuguese Language, in its usage, as much in daily activities as in literature through reading verbal and nonverbal texts, in your many ways of intersection that comics provide, besides the domain of a language that develops the capacity of expression and communication. To this, it is necessary comics teaching to be as deep as it is the grammar, literature and writing teaching. At this thesis is proposed to introduce students to the studying of comics building resources, its styles, to mention its authors, social contexts and to present pedagogical proposes that allows comics to be worked as an interdisciplinary activity. Following this line of thought, this thesis has the objective of supporting the study of comics, in its variety of genres, intending to develop reading competencies, orality and writing of verbal and nonverbal elements. It is intended this new way of studying comics brings to students the pleasure of reading and creating this media.
