A importância do letramento crítico para o ensino da língua inglesa

Abstract

This article aims to reflect on issues of critical literacy in the English language, based on the current context of education, in which literacy practice is part of the teachinglearning process, an education centered on sociocultural aspects, in which the individual is able to develop his critical sense for social transformation. With regard to 4 the teacher's role, critical literacy requires a greater skill from the teacher, as a critical understanding of what is being read is necessary for the construction of meanings. In this sense, we propose to highlight the importance of critical literacy in teaching practice, since it covers economic, social, cultural and political aspects, significant learning and a contribution to society. For theoretical support, the studies of Ana Cláudia Turcato de Oliveira (2018) and Aracelle Palma Fávoro Motta (2008), among others, are going to be taken into consideration.
