Desenvolvimento da capacidade argumentativa de alunos do ensino fundamental a partir da ativação de frames

Abstract

The construction of an argumentation process in a text, by demanding a series of skills, can be considered a difficult procedure. Among these difficulties, we need the ability to confront points of view and to propose solutions to problems discussed in argumentative texts. In this sense, this research seeks to evidence a work carried out based on a methodological preparation of action research based on the elaboration of a didactic sequence whose purpose is to increase the argumentative capacity of the researched subjects through activities that enable the activation of frames by Part of the students, thus contributing to the production of argumentative texts. To do this, these activities rely on motivating texts and activities related to these texts, promoting debates that aim to verify if students activate frames in an appropriate way. To that end, the theoretical basis will follow, in a general perspective, the studies that present content focused on textual and cognitive linguistics applied to the teaching of textual production, especially Marcuschi (2008), which presupposes the need for a work with language centered in genres of discourse and Koch (2002), which he deems to be the fundamental language argumentation. Regarding the elaboration of the didactic sequence, this research follows the model of Dolz and Schneuwly (2004). Analyzing the results of the applied activities, it was verified, through the results achieved, that the subjects studied satisfactorily extended their argumentative capacity, which is in harmony with the objectives sought by the interventions carried out with the students studied. The work recommendation presented by this research can contribute to pedagogical actions that aim at the formation of students aware of the need to argue in the various communication situations of daily life, as well as to contribute to new reflections on methods based on which one can teach to produce an argumentative text
