Ambiente virtual e literatura: uma proposta de sequência didática com a obra O Cortiço

Abstract

This paper proposes a teaching sequence for the curricular component of Literature, of the Portuguese Language course, based on studies of Rildo Cosson (2007), published in Letramento Literário: teoria e prática, and in the use of new information and communication technologies, as it aims to contribute to the teaching work in a closer relationship between students of primary and secondary education and literary texts through electronic tools and virtual environments of the world wide web. Guided by the challenges of the contemporary school environment, it is proposed an alternative in what the virtual environment, with its indispensable presence to the current man, can contribute to the educational goals recommended by the teaching of literature. Thus, the didactic sequence aims to contribute to the guidance of elementary school students for the reading of the book Dez dias de cortiço, of Ivan Jaf (2008), and the closeness between high school students and the opus O Cortiço, of Aluísio Azevedo (2010), starting by reading the transposition of the book, available online in video game format. As theme support, aiming to conduct the students to the original Azevedos's narrative, it suggests the investigation of the relations among this novel and other literary genres that have the theme of adolescence and its conflicts. As theoretical contribution to the work of teachers with the book of the Realistic-Naturalist period there are very important contributions of Antonio Candido (1995), which points to the humanizing role of literature, the concern of Italo Calvino (2007) for the maintenance of access to the classics of literature in times of changes in the technology field, as well as the weights of Zygmunt Bauman (2001) on the called “liquid modernity”, among other authors that support this study.
