O Cotidiano mediado pela internet: a necessidade de uma formação educacional para a websocialização

Abstract

The data and discussions collection done in this search linked up to the intention of reflecting and proposing that the school is the training locus to the socio-cultural interactions of the children through the internet, the websocialization. This concern came from the analysis of data from research institutes, such as IBGE, IBOPE, CETIC.BR, SaferNet Brazil and others, it allowed to trace the Brazilian internet user profile and the growing use of the internet to mediate their activities. Local data were collected too through questionnaires that were given to parents, teachers and children/students linked to the final grades of elementary school of two educational institut ions (a public school and a private school) in Dourados-MS city, with the purpose to know the dynamics between the school, the family and the internet. These information allowed us to delimit the knowledge of the individuals about their access and availability of content, use of the internet potential and, above all, the risks and constraints that they expose themselves because they don‘t have a formation directed to the conscious and responsible access. Based on the civilizing processes theory, from Norbert Elias, we proposed to the teachers and students, from the mentioned schools, the application of our didactic proposal that linked information about the internet to three subjects in the curriculum contents from this experience, we concluded that there are possibilities to enter the subject in the school environment, but, before, a formation that puts the teacher as the main character of the knowledge is needed, which has the recognition of the internet as a potential vehicle to build different means of learning, beyond the search, communication and information function.
