Softwares de aprendizagem da leitura envolvendo a consciência fonológica: um olhar da fonoaudiologia

Abstract

This thesis is a qualitative research review of the literature. The aim is to analyze what the researchers reveal about Education‟s software in regards to the categories of phonological awareness in reading acquisition and development during the first years of elementary education. It is presented from the point of view of speech-language pathology. Five articles were chosen for analysis of structure and application. Two were in Portuguese and three were in other languages. The articles describe information systems, objective, theory foundation and methods, and conclude with study results. Later, the articles analyze the use of phonological awareness skills presented through the software. Among the five software systems presented in the articles, I focused on the Pedro no Parque de Diversões software for analysis. This software teaches the multimedia support bidimensional, (in 2D), and through audiovisual recourse, develops the identified areas of phonological awareness. The scenery is interactive and easy to navigate. The phonological awareness activities explored in the software can be aligned with the Education and Speech-Language Pathology‟s proposal as presented through the schools‟ activities.
