Gêneros textuais e práticas sociais: segunda etapa de desenvolvimento do jogo didático Linguagem e Interação

Abstract

This report aims to present the second stage of development of the didactic game Language and Interaction, initially developed by Awdrey Dorásio de Souza Oliveira, under the guidance of teacher Maria Clara Maciel de Araújo Ribeiro, and finalized through this research. The game aims to develop the communicative competence of elementary school students through a playful and contextualized activity. To do so, it is based on the projection of different communication situations that demand the production of oral and written textual / discursive genres, with a view to increasing students' oral and written expression skills, as well as to understanding the social function of different genres. In the second stage of product development, revisions and changes were made to the components and dynamics of the game, as well as items not produced in the first stage, such as the teacher support book, instructional manuals and 84 new communication situations. In addition, adequacy and improvement tests were carried out in eight public schools in the Federal District, with the objective of making the product effective for the intended pedagogical purpose. The tests revealed that the product finished by the research presents itself as an important and significant didactic material in support of teachers of Portuguese Language of Primary Education II, for making the activity of textual production more dynamic, diversified, contextualized and fun.
