Re: [xmca] Help With Spanish/Portuguese
Hello Kellog,
He is talking in a kind of mix of Spanish and Portuguese, so
yes, Portuguese speakers can comprehend him.
I think that the question of who is Emilia Ferreiro is already covered.
But one thing is important to note: Many say that the "caminho suave" (soft
way) for alphabetization proposed by Ferreiro, based on the teaching of the
relationship between letters and phonemes and with a image in the form of
the letter to help the child remenber, is mechanistic and led to a very
very serious problem we face in Brazil now: a very high percentage of
people with functional illiteracy. Much before Ferreiro propositions,
Vygotsky already criticized this kind of alphabetization, that seems to be
gathering force again with some dubious "neurological background" from the
cognitive sciences, for the lack of opportunity for the child to give
meaning for this.
Many educators in Brazil "blame" Piaget and Ferreiro for the lack of
capacity for many Brazilians (even in the university) to comprehend a text,
they can read but can't give it a meaning and much less criticize it, i.e.,
no abstract reasoning about the text. Paulo Freire ways seems to goes in
the Vygotsky direction, but we must remenber also that he worked with adult
workers, not elementary school children.
I am hyper simplifying things here, and of course there are other factors
to this phenomena, but this is the kind of discussion you would hear about
in these parts.
