The article undertakes a theoretical inquiry of the cultural conditions of body visibility through the practice of production and publication of self-portraits - called selfies - made by young girls. The objective is to analyze, from a culturalist approach, the ways how female students of one level of Public Brazilian High School use smartphones and social media to produce and share their selfies. The methodology design consisted of three meetings for discussion on the topics of body, image and technology, which were performed by one researcher with the volunteers. The neologism pedagoselfie is created to address the operation of a kind of pedagogy in the process of teaching and learning the significations and practices implied by the production of selfies, significations that encompass pedagogy, body, image and technology. It concludes that both the production and publication of selfies may be articulated to the circumscription of a singular regime of visibility of the present time, according as the exposition of a image of oneself to the other depends of a visual scrutiny the regulates the production, edition and publication of selfies on online social media.
