Ensino de gêneros e termos jornalísticos: contribuições de um dicionário terminológico digital

Abstract

Textual genres are different texts 3 oral and written 3 that people produce and interact with throughout their social and communicative relationships, in all areas of knowledge. Language involves verbal interaction and, as Marcuschi (2008) argues, people communicate through genres. For the author, language is not seen only as an instrument, but above all as an element of interaction. In a journalism course, for example, there is a significant variety of textual genres and terms that students come across and that they often do not use, due to lack of knowledge, thus hindering the interaction advocated by the author. In this sense, this study sought to develop and apply a digital terminological dictionary on journalistic genres and terms to 26 students 3 aged 18 to 24 3 in the second year of an undergraduate journalism course at a university located in the Campos Gerais region, in the city of Ponta Grossa, Paraná; and to discuss the results of this application. The thesis defended in this work is that the educational product "Digital terminological dictionary of journalistic genres and terms" can contribute to the academic training of journalism students. The types of research used were qualitative and field research. Qualitative research, because the research approach studied subjective aspects of social phenomena and human behavior. These phenomena were observed in the classroom, in teaching. Due to the subjective nature of qualitative research, it was complemented with field work, studying classroom aspects with the applicability of the digital terminological dictionary of journalistic genres and terms. The results showed that the students considered the digital terminological dictionary of journalistic genres and terms a productive resource, with the potential to be used as a didactic-technological support, mainly in initial disciplines of the journalism course.
