Teacher Education and Teaching: Intercultural hybridization process in writing about language teaching

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the ways in which the school and local cultures make up the writing about the Portuguese language teaching of Portuguese undergraduate students of PARFOR / UFPA, in Marajó. The theoretical basis relies on the notion of culture for Apple (1989, 1995) and Canclini (2013); in the notion of writing for Gnerre (1991) and Geraldi (1997); and in the teaching of reading and written production from Geraldi (2006) and Britto (1997). From an extensive corpus of writings made by the undergraduates, a teaching activity and a field internship diary are selected and analyzed. The writings of the undergraduates refer, in their majority, to the legends of the region present in the lived culture and the culture used like merchandise from the filter of the televising and / or digital media and in the musical market. It is also observed that the process of hybridization of cultures is marked by evidence of integration as well as contradiction.
