Sujeito, linguagem e transmissão: perspectivas para o ensino de libras/português escrito na educação básica bilíngue

Abstract

This research is the result of studies and discussions developed during twenty meetings held in the GT (Working Group) titled Ensino Discursivo de Libras/Português escrito na Educação Básica Discursive (Teaching of Libras/Written Portuguese). The main goal was to bring together teachers and interpreters of Libras interested in revisiting their practices and thinking about didactic-methodological possibilities that culminated in the elaboration of reading and writing activities for deaf students in bilingual schools of Basic Education. During the Working Group, the participants' greatest concerns were about the reality of the deaf in classrooms in regular schools, because they said their students could not learn the contents of the subjects and did not present the Portuguese language record, apparently, for not having an acquisition in Brazilian Sign Language (Libras). The data derived from these meetings were analyzed and problematized from psychoanalytical concepts (Freud, 2007; Lacan, 1998), as well as in the light of dialogism, in Bakhtin (1997). In response to the question about what is necessary to know to teach Libras / Written Portuguese in the bilingual school of Basic Education, the studies developed here pointed out to the fact that deaf and hearing are singular subjects and that, therefore, the effectiveness of the transmission can not be guaranteed by a supposedly adequate choice of materials and / or teaching methods.
