Abstract

SILVA, Soraya Gonçalves Celestino da  and  FARIA, Evangelina Maria Brito de. A proposal with multiliteracies in specialized educational service geared to the literacy of autistic students. Educ. Puc. [online]. 2021, vol.26, e214926. ISSN 2318-0870.  https://doi.org/10.24220/2318-0870v26e2021a4926.

This study, part of a doctoral research, addresses the use of multi-tools in the perspective that knowledge is observed from a multimodal point of view: letters, images, sounds and the signaling for new skills, which are demanded by a new textual organization, more hybrid and interconnected. In this sense, the objective of this study is to review the process of acquiring the written language of an autistic child in technological environments, based on multi-tools, in specialized educational assistance. Theoretically, the discussion is based on interactionist assumptions. The qualitative research, based on the action-research methodology and on case studies, was developed, based on the didactic sequence (four modules), elaborated through the pedagogy of the multi-tools and applied in the Educational Specialized Service, of an eleven-year-old autistic student, enrolled in the 3rd year of elementary school, from a public school in Olinda (PE). From the study, it was found that the use of multi-tools contributed to the advancement of this student’s writing skills, opening didactic perspectives for working with autistic children. The data reviewed point to the need for the school to incorporate multimodal resources, which contribute to the acquisition of written language.
