THE TEXTUAL DISCOURSIVE GENRE MAP: For a cartographic multiliteracy in schools
School Cartography. Cartosemiotics. Cartographic multiliteracy. Discursive textual genres.
In this project I intend to discuss about School Cartography. My proposal is to investigate how the assumptions of cartographic multiliteracy, implicit in the BNCC for High School, are little explored by didactic books of Geography, which is the subject responsible for this learning object. During the research, the idea is to think about cartographic representation in its communicative character, in other words, the intentions and speeches of those who cartograph and the educational process for young people in school age for reading multimodal maps. In short, I intend to discuss maps as a textual discursive genre based on discussions of Sociodiscursive Interactionism (ISD), multiliteracies and semiotics. For this, I will list authors from the areas of Cartography, Linguistics and Teaching and, then, I will analyze two textbooks of the 1st year of High School regarding the presence or the absence of cartographic multiliteracy practices. As a result, I hope to identify consonance or dissonance of textbooks with the BNCC in terms of cartographic multiliteracy, pointing out directions for an approach to School Cartography, by discursive textual genres and multiliteracies theories.
