Comunicação e educação escolar em tempos midiatizados

Abstract

This research shows the results from the analysis of studies about Educommunication, made in the last two decades by Adilson Citelli and Ismar de Oliveira Soares, two brazillian specialists in education and communication. The material analysed is made of papers published by the two aforementioned authors in the journal “Comunicação e Educação” (Communication and Education), from the Universidade de São Paulo (USP). The methodology, qualitative in nature, consists in a bibliography review, where the technique of thematical category analysis was used, observing reactions and obstacles in the interrelation education-communication, as well as the innovations using educommunication practices to education, proposed by the authors. The problematic then involves the non-consolidation of new ways of teaching and learning in the schooling practice, in conformity with the communicational culture that predominates in present-day’s mediatized society. This research’s social goal is to elevate the premise that schooling needs to be contextualized, such that the educational work satisfies the social aspirations of one’s formation. The research presents interconnections between education and communication, as well as the main ideas that the authors defend, treating the theme of Educommunication and its development in schooling practices in the present day and its obstacles to reach this propositions.
