O uso de séries televisivas como objeto de aprendizagem no curso superior de direito

Abstract

This work is a teaching project with the application of digital resources, for Law students. It proposes the use of episodes from a TV series as learning objects. It has as theoretical basis the pedagogy of multiliteracies, learning objects and the pedagogy of projects. The digital resources used are episodes of a TV series, available on streaming platforms, a digital magazine creation tool and a social network website, used as a virtual learning environment. The general objective is to promote discussions about current and relevant topics for the Law student, related to episodes of a legal TV show. The specific objectives are to develop digital literacy skills in students, stimulate scientific production, encourage students’ autonomy and protagonism in the learning process and promote university extension. This work presents a proposal for the activity, in the form of an elective class in the Law course, as well as a proposal for evaluating students and the final products created by them. During the project, the social network website should be used as a virtual learning environment, through publications written by students, discussing the proposed subjects. As a result of the teaching project, it is expected to obtain two final products: one aimed at the scientific community in the area of Law, and the other aimed at society. As for the first, examples of admissible products are: a scientific article, an essay, an opinion article or even a final degree project. The second, on the other hand, must be a digital magazine, composed of reviews of the episodes, written by the students, with language accessible to the external public. In these texts, students should explore multimodality and interactivity. In any case, the final products developed must be relevant to the student, ensuring their protagonist in the learning process, in addition to necessarily incorporating digital technologies as a means for meaningful learning.
