TEXTUAL GENRES AND LITERACY IN CORPORATE EDUCATION: pre-service profissional experiences
Literacy as social practice. Professional literacy. Corporate education. Experiences. Police training.
In this paper, we seek to verify the extent to which literacy practices experienced by the professional in training in the context of corporate education have an effect on their literacy for the exercise of functional activities. In this modality of teaching, the student does not only experience literacy practices systematized for pedagogical purposes, but several others that are part of his or her routine as a member of the organization that promotes the event. With support in the framework of Literacy Studies, we understand literacy as a situated practice (BARTON, 1998, BARTON, HAMILTON, 2000), which therefore occurs in specific contexts of human life, influenced by cultural, social and historical aspects. Taking the experiences of students of corporate education as a construct and unit of analysis (MICCOLI, 1997, 2007, 2014), we will seek, through questionnaires, annotations, interviews and copies of textual genres; identify literacy events that occur in the organization in which the students are inserted, however, outside the classroom. Through interviews, we will seek to understand the reflections of the informants about the identified events and describe literacy practices (STREET, 1984; 2014) from the perspective of these same informants. The group of informants will be composed of three students from the Training Course of Soldiers of the Military Police of Minas Gerais, and the collection will be done during the period of the course, from September 2017 to June 2018. We expect that the research will allow us to reflect on the literacy practices not formally considered in the course plans and their implications for the training of the military police officer.
