A heterogeneidade linguístico-cultural em turmas de português língua estrangeira: o impacto na produção escrita

Abstract

In this study, we discussed and analyzed written texts of students from different countries, participants of ―Programa de Estudante Convênio Graduação‖ (PEC G), of the Portuguese for Foreigners course, at Federal University of Pará (UFPA), who submitted to ―Certificado de Proficiência em Língua Portuguesa para Estrangeiros‖ (Celpe Bras), in the years of 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The objective is to investigate the impact of the linguistic cultural heterogeneity of the student and the class in the teaching learning of the Written Production (PE) in Foreign Language Portuguese (PLE). It is, especially, an research action supported by the language biography procedure. Our theoretical base is based on studies on Plurilingualism, Pluriculturalism and Interculturalism (ABDALLAH PRETCEILLE, 2003/2010; BLANCHET, 1998/2014; CONSELHO DA EUROPA, 2001/2010; COSTE, 2001; 2010...), Competences (CONSELHO DA EUROPA, 2001/2010; HYMES, 1984...), and others, associated with the Interactionism Sociodiscursive ISD (BRONCKART, 2003/2017; DOLZ, 2004/ 2016; SCHNEUWLY, 2004/2014; BULEA, 2010/2012...). In order to constitute our data we developed Written Production workshops (directed to the target public) that gave us several texts written by the learners. They are texts that we call "real" (account of experience / linguistic biography, sketches / drafts) or of "simulated" (tasks of written production of diverse textual genres). All this material allowed us not only to identify the influence of languages cultures in the texts written in Portuguese by the learners, but also to verify attitudes, behaviors ... that sometimes helped, or sometimes they made it difficult to the process of Production written in Portuguese. The analysis of our data: 1) indicates that several texts written by the learner present "deviations" that studies, only, on textuality, do not explain satisfactorily, since they are related to the history of learning, with the attitude that the student assumed to learn portuguese etc. These are phenomenas that are often not perceived by the teacher (nor by the student) in the classroom, but which impact the teaching learning process; 2) confirms the need to deepen the study of the impact of the linguistic / cultural heterogeneity of the students, and of the group coming from their educational cultures, their learning paths of language cultures ... to understand better their written production difficulties in PLE and, thus, be able to optimize the teaching learning process.
