MOVIMENTOS DE SUBJETIVIDADE EM PRODUÇÕES ESCRITAS DE ALUNOS EM SÉRIES FINAIS DO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL II

Abstract

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which began in China in December 2019, quickly spread around the world in early 2020, generating immense challenges for public health and, consequently, for education throughout Brazil. During the next two years, the disease caused not only the loss of life, but also left deep and unprecedented gaps in Brazilian education. Given this scenario, our work, of a qualitative-interpretative nature, aimed to understand the impacts that the pandemic left on students' writing, in addition to describing the strategies adopted by schools to reintegrate these students. It also sought to emphasize the way in which social interactions were resumed in this context. With this, our work contributes to studies on the impact of the pandemic on students' school life and to carry out a discursive analysis based on textual productions of students in the 9th grade of Elementary School II from a public school in João Pessoa. Our research Our survey was conducted between the second half of 2022 and the first half of 2023. This work is an excerpt from the extension project entitled, "The student and the return to face-to-face teaching: an analysis of the processes of subjectivation beyond the written text", which was valid from August 2022 to July 2023. We observed how the texts of these students reflect movements of subjectivity after returning to face-to-face teaching, especially in their post-COVID-19 resocialization process. To do so, we based ourselves on the assumptions of Discourse Analysis, especially in the works of Michel Foucault (1997; 2004; 2005), Eni Orlandi (2009) and Cleudemar Alves Fernandes (2008), among others. Our analysis focused on highlighting the student in his author-function, evidencing his weaknesses, desires and his desires for truth. The texts showed how the students' discourses reveal their experiences and challenges when returning to the school environment after such a disruptive period and that was will be marked in the country's memory.
