This study aims to discuss teacher training, within the scope of Basic Education, creating opportunities for teachers to (re)think and (res)signify their pedagogical practices, considering the current sociocultural context, to demand professionals who appropriate the diversity of languages, cultures and hypermedia that make up multiliteracies. It is a macro project that articulates different projects, developed in postgraduate programs (stricto sensu) of a public university, which raise themes such as cultural diversity, multimodality, multi-semiosis, digital convergence, articulation between teaching, learning and research, within the scope of teacher training. In this context the main question of this study focusses on the following way: How teachers have been prepared to work on the different types of existing literacies, even which involve digital technologies, related to the demands and challenges proposed by the (multi) literacies? As methodology, we opted for research-training, collaborative, through formative meetings based on reflective sessions. Results of researches carried out between 2017 and 2018 lead to the conclusion that public projects and policies aimed at teacher training will need, in the face of given changes by the digital culture and multiliteracies, to think about teaching training and pedagogical practices, based on a teaching conception that, effectively, stablish a relationship between knowledge and student’s daily life; between human development processes and the possibilities of learning offered by the literate culture agencies, considering the guidelines for an inclusion of the diversity as a basic principle of citizenship.

Keywords : Teacher training; Literacies; Multiliteracies; Research-training; Digital culture.
