Ser e/ou não ser: oficinas de leitura e produção de texto como espaços de compartilhamento, reconhecimento e validação de identidades multiculturais em turmas de EJA

Abstract

The objective of the work is to present and discuss the possibility of reading and text production within the framework of Youth and Adult Education (EJA, in Brazil) from an inclusive approach in relation to multiculturalism, an element increasingly present in Brazilian society, and which manifests itself all the time in classrooms. Through considerations about the current context of students who use EJA, the importance of the relationship between educator and student and the raising of questions regarding multicultural identities and how their representations have been given in school spaces, we seek to offer support theory to teachers who intend to include such themes in their pedagogical practices. In addition to theoretical expositions obtained from studies produced by highly relevant authors, both in the field of literacy and literacy and in the field of cultural studies, there are also suggestions for practical classes that make up a reading and text production workshop with a strong focus on multimodality and multiliteracies.
