Abstract

KLEIMAN, Angela B.. Access paths to the world of writing: importance of non-school literacy practices to scholar literacy. Perspectiva [online]. 2010, vol.28, n.02, pp.375-400. ISSN 0102-5473.

Based on social and historical conception of literacy rather than an instrumental one (STREET, 1984, KLEIMAN, 1995), this paper discusses aspects of school literacy, pointing out some of its implications for teaching and research. We present two lines of studies developed by the research group “Teacher Literacy”: one focusing on the development, analysis and documentation of ‘literacy projects’ and its effects on school literacy; the other focusing local, vernacular literacies and on their effect on the identities of community leaders and agents. Both lines of research aim to contribute towards the development of teaching programs favoring students who are more vulnerable, from a social point of view, and whose access to the world of writing encounters many obstacles.

Keywords : Teaching Project; Literacy Culture.
