Abstract

GONTIJO, Cláudia Maria Mendes. Alfabetização no Espírito Santo: o método mútuo ou monitorial. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2011, n.40, pp.141-158. ISSN 0104-4060.

This text aims at analyzing the Regimento Interno das Aulas Publicas de 1.as Letras of the Espírito Santo Province (1871) and the mutual instruction implemented in this Regulation, emphasizing the guidelines to the practice of reading and writing teaching. To develop this study, we used documental research. The article concludes that the utilization of the mutual instruction allowed the maintenance of models of reading and writing teaching based in the systematic study of letters, of the syllables, of the sentence and, finally, of the reading of religious texts and others, which intended the constitution of religious and patriotic feelings in individuals. It also concludes that the adoption of this method, considering the working conditions of the schools, represented the lack of interest of the provincial governments in offering the minimal working conditions of the schools, mainly in reference to the guarantee of adequate education and remuneration of the teachers.

Keywords : Teaching and Writing History; Reading Teaching; Writing Teaching.
