Proposta de ensino de variação diatópica em aulas de língua portuguesa para classe hospitalar

Abstract

The present study aims develop a pedagogical intervention proposal by using an app that is focused for the study of the diatopic variation of lexical items related to the human body in the Portuguese Language lessons in two hospital classes. The research's specific objectives are: (i) develop the pedagogical proposal for the creation of an app; (ii) evaluate through pedagogical intervention the app along with the students of the hospital classes; (iii) collaborate with the increase of lexical collection of the students; (iv) contribute with the Portuguese Language teacher by offering a technological resource for the education of diatopic variation contribute to increase students's knowledge about the lexical-semantic variation related to human body parts; (v) contribute to the student's critical reflexive attitude in relation to linguistic discrimination. Our interest for the theme was stimulated by the lack of studies and discussions that involves the Portuguese Language education in hospital class, specifically, the lexical-semantic variation and the use of technological resources that are capable of arousing the student's learning desire in a pleasant way. Therefore, we searched in theoretical researches about the hospital class, the lexicon and the linguistic variation, a theoretical support to elaborate the planning and the pedagogical activities in order to guide us to the app development. We emphasize that we turn to the lexical semantic education foccusing on the diatopic variation of lexical items of the human body. The theoretical aspects related to the linguistic variation, Sociolinguistic, types of variation, Dialectology, Geolinguistic, Sociogeolinguistic and standard are also in our study. The theoretical substantiation to our discussions and to the elaboration of the pedagogical activities and development of the app took as reference researchers that are related to the mentioned topics above, like: Fonseca (2008), Matos and Mugiatti (2008), Assis (2009), Albertoni (2014), Fernandes et al. (2014), Barbosa (1978; 1990; 1997); Cardoso (2010); Coseriu (1979; 1980); Bagno (2003; 2007; 2013); Faraco (2008; 2012); Preti (2003); Labov (2008); among others. Developing this study through the action research methodology, we emphasize that the learning mediations and the activities performed in an interactive way in hospital class had great importance for that the student could develop a new way to see and look at the language that is used. The use of the app and the collected corpus shows that during the pedagogical intervention we collaborate in the deconstruction and demystification of what they brought about the language design as something rigid and forced. In this way, we found that this work was able to bring positive results, although we have consciousness that we did not reach all of the students from Goiania's hospital classes. Through this study, we understand that working with lexical-semantic variation in hospital class is necessary and that it contributes a lot with the inclusive perspective of education for all.
