INTRODUÇÃO

Educar hoje é mais difícil porque a nossa sociedade com todo o avanço tecnológico existente, se tornou mais complexa (MORAN, 2004). No entanto faz parte do nosso papel como educadores buscar o aprimoramento necessário para que possamos atuar com eficiência frente a este novo desafio.

As DCEs de LEM (2006) propõem que as aulas de Língua Estrangeira, representem um espaço de construção para o aluno, através do qual ele possa reconhecer e compreender a diversidade lingüística e cultural existente. Além de compreender que a língua como prática discursiva não é neutra. Tal proposta apóia-se nas Teorias do Círculo de Bakhtin que propõe o ensino através dos gêneros discursivos.

Devido ao reduzido espaço de tempo para a aplicabilidade do projeto na escola, optamos por utilizar apenas o gênero discursivo música (clips), que normalmente já faz parte da rotina diária da maioria dos estudantes, que gostam de realizar diversas atividades ouvindo música, o que acaba resultando numa empatia conjunta por este gênero, o que vem de encontro ao nosso principal objetivo que é estimular o interesse dos alunos, do Curso de Formação de Docentes, do Colégio Estadual Guilherme de Almeida-EFMN, pela aprendizagem de LEM - inglês.

Ao elaborarmos o presente material levamos em conta ainda, a necessidade de oferecer subsídios à prática pedagógica do professor de LEM dentro da nova proposta, auxiliando-o não apenas na sua compreensão, mas principalmente incentivando a utilização dos recursos tecnológicos existentes na própria escola, uma vez que além de utilizar a TV Multimídia, o material oferece a oportunidade para a utilização do Laboratório de Informática da Escola, para acessar os clips selecionados , todos do site http://www.youtube.com .

Cabe ressaltar ainda, que a escolha do gênero discursivo música, foi devido a sua relevante importância como forma de expressão cultural, que veicula valores estéticos, ideológicos, morais, religiosos, lingüísticos, etc. Além disso, ao trabalharmos com a música, através de “clips”, temos ainda a oportunidade de explorar a riqueza imagética existente nos mesmos, além de podermos analisar a relação de tal recurso visual com a letra da música, o que segundo as DCE/LEM , p.40), é muito importante no trabalho pedagógico, na medida que auxiliam os alunos a interferir sobre o tema e sentidos dos textos.

Para a elaboração deste material utilizamos ainda como base teórico-metodológica o Interacionismo Sócio-discursivo de Bronckart e Dolz Schneuwly, que ancorou toda a estruturação das seqüências didáticas utilizadas.

Enfim , esperamos que este material consiga atingir todos os objetivos didático-pedagógicos propostos, servindo de instrumento para a melhoria do processo de Ensino -aprendizagem de LEM- Inglês .

THINKING ABOUT...

Toda música é um texto, e como tal não é isento de sentido. As músicas transmitem mensagens e defendem pontos de vista. Elas são carregadas de ideologias, traços pessoais, culturais e sociais de quem as produziu. Por esta razão é interessante conhecermos não apenas as letras das músicas, mas todo contexto de sua produção, além é claro, de compreender a mensagem que ela quer passar.
