Reflexões sobre as práticas de leitura em língua estrangeira moderna inglês no currículo do Estado de São Paulo

Abstract

This present dissertation, research line on Educational Institution: Management and Organization, has been raised because of some concerns related to the reading practices in English as a Second Language within the Curriculum proposal of São Paulo state. We were challenged in investigating the ways that document not only presents but also articulates the reading representations with a heterogeneous school. It is justified, then, the importance of reflecting whether or not that curriculum considers the school and the students needs concerning the reading practices. In order to have it done, the qualitative approach sustains this work, which involves a detailed bibliographic analysis, allowing us to refer to different sources of scientific knowledge and theories, and desk research, in which the curriculum itself will be used, as well. Furthermore, we intend to understand the reading representations and practices based on Roger Chartier studies, so we can analyze how they are articulated in that curriculum. Also, it will hopefully lead to create real actions on the reading field.
