O fórum de discussão: uma análise sobre o processo de constituição dos níveis interacionais entre os alunos de um curso de especialização

Abstract

In this work I tried to make a theorization about how the interaction process between subjects is constituted, for that I adopted Vygotsky's (2007) theoretical basis in which language has a mediating and dialectical role in the construction of interaction through its sign systems. I also used the perspectives of the Semantic Fields Model proposed by Lins (2012) to elucidate how the genesis of the interactive process happens and to explain the construction of the collaboration process, I talked about the conceptualizations of Dantas et al. (2016) and Leontiev (1978). From an analysis of the fourth discussion forum of the discipline Virtual Worlds and Web 2.0 of a Specialization course of a public University of the state of Paraná I could bring discussions based on these theoretical concepts developed in the research corpus with the objective of seeking the understanding of how The interactive process was formed from the exchange of messages between the students, and how to classify this interactive process. I used the constructive-interpretative character of the Qualitative perspective of González Rey (1997) for the treatment of the data. From this methodology, I selected discussion topics that best elucidated the levels of interaction proposed in this research: no interaction, productive interaction and collaborative interaction. As a result it was observed that the mode of meaning production is directly linked to the constitution of the interaction levels. It starts with a alternation of the author / reader roles among the participants, establishing a direction of the enunciation, goes through the production of meanings and reaches the level of collaboration when the subjects share the same motives and needs, thus producing knowledge in a way significant.
