Por uma didática mídia-educativa

Abstract

The article presents subsidies for thinking paths towards a media-educational didactics using as methodology the literature review motivated by the results of an extensive research carried out in the municipal schools of Rio de Janeiro. From the finding - anchored by the research data - that schools have not yet incorporated into their practices the main guidelines put today by the field of Media Education, it addresses the importance of media literacy to form citizens who can relate critically and creatively to the media and reports the barriers listed by researchers for the implementation of ICT in schools. Finally, the article points a way from the construction of media educational public policies with clear guidelines and mechanisms that ensure their implementation in classroom didactics, fundamentally incorporating: 1 - infrastructure; 2 - continued teacher training; 3 - incentives for teachers to implement the policy, with autonomy to create diverse pedagogical practices, freedom for invention and space for error.
