Taking into consideration citizens awareness in their actions, through proposed tasks and the discussions promoted in formation spaces. The research had the aim at discussing how this remidial work activity was organized as a citizenship space for the public school students. From a Socio Historical Cultural Activity Theory - SHCAT (Vygotsky, 2000/1934, Leontiev, 2003/1977 and Engestöm,1999), Citizenship as a Legal Condition and Desirible Activity (Wayne, N. & Kymlicka, W. 1997) and Critical Thinking (Brookfield and Preskill, 1987 & Brookfield, 1999), I had as action project to discuss the didatic tasks proposed by the teacher. From the same theoretical approach, I analised the discursive spaces promoted by the teacher through discussions during the tasks. This research is inserted in a critical perpsective and adopts a collaborative posture (Magalhães, 1994 and Liberali & Liberali, 2001) in the whole work development. The data was collected in a São Paulo public school teaching formation Program entitled Citizen Action. More specifically, during both 2004 semesters in a public school in Carapicuiba, a city placed in the sorroundings of São Paulo. There were eight classes recorded and three of them were analized and discussed. The context of production and thematic content analizys (Bronckart, 1997) had the objective of verifying which object was constructed during the data collection period and how this object relates with the critical citizenship concept. The three classes analized interpretation shows that the themes were conducted to colaborate with more participative citizens in the classroom operations / Este trabalho tem como foco apresentar uma pesquisa denominada: A atividade de reforço na escola pública como espaço para construção da cidadania que visou contribuir com professores de uma escola pública estadual a refletirem a respeito dos espaços que promovem em sala de aula para a formação de cidadãos mais conscientes. A pesquisa teve por objetivo discutir como essa atividade de reforço se organizou como espaço de formação cidadã para os alunos. Partindo das perspectivas: da Teoria da Atividade Sócio Histórico Cultural - TASHC (Vygotsky, 2000/1934, Leontiev, 2003/1977 e Engestöm,1999), de Cidadania como Condição Legal e Atividade Desejável (Gentili2001) e de Pensamento Crítico (Brookfield e Preskill, 1987 & 1999), tive como projeto de ação discutir as tarefas didáticas propostas pela professora. A partir do mesmo arcabouço, investiguei que espaços discursivos a professora promoveu através das discussões utilizadas no decorrer dessas tarefas. Esta pesquisa se enquadra em uma perspectiva crítica e adota uma postura Colaborativa (Magalhães, 1994 e Liberali & Liberali, 2001) na condução de todo o trabalho. Os dados foram coletados no contexto de um Programa de formação de educadores de escolas públicas do estado de São Paulo denominado Ação Cidadã. Mais particularmente, no primeiro e segundo semestres de 2004 em uma escola da rede pública localizada no município de Carapicuíba, grande São Paulo, foram coletadas oito aulas sendo utilizadas três aulas para análise e discussão. A análise do Contexto de Produção e do Conteúdo Temático (Bronckart, 1997) foi realizada com o objetivo de verificar qual objeto foi construído ao longo do período de coleta e como esse objeto se relaciona com o conceito de cidadania crítica. A interpretação das aulas analisadas mostra que a transformação dos temas foram conduzidos de forma a colaborar para a formação de cidadãos mais participativos nas operações de sala de aula

Le 21ème siècle est considéré comme l’âge du numérique. Les TIC sont devenus des outils identitaires d’une génération désormais définie comme « native du numérique » (angl. digital natives). Equiper les établissements secondaires en matériels coûteux devient une nécessité pour faire face aux besoins nouveaux de la société. Les ressources numériques, qui ont complété puis évincé le manuel et ses périphériques traditionnels, demeurent un atout incontournable pour l’apprentissage d’une langue vivante étrangère, grâce à des contenus linguistiques et culturels le plus souvent authentiques, qui favorisent la mise en œuvre de l’approche actionnelle du Cadre Européen Commun de Référence pour les Langues. On peut néanmoins s’interroger sur la capacité du sujet apprenant à traiter cet input directement extrait d’Internet. La plus-value pédagogique présumée, didactique et motivationnelle, qui associée à ces outils technologiques ne saurait être acceptée sans un questionnement sincère sur les capacités cognitives effectives des apprenants ainsi que sur la réalité de leur engagement. L’accordage entre le sujet apprenant, les méthodes et méthodologies d’enseignement-apprentissage des langues, ainsi que les dispositifs numériques doivent être explorés. Il est nécessaire aujourd’hui de se situer dans un paradigme cognitiviste ou encore connexioniste en envisageant une construction de l’information et l’exposition des apprenants à un environnement stimulant et riche. En effet, en dépit de l’attractivité, de la non-linéarité et de l’interactivité de l’hypermédia, il convient de vérifier que l’apprenant possède bien les ressources cognitives nécessaires pour traiter efficacement l’information issue de l’hypertexte. Car l’enjeu du traitement de l’information ne se situe pas simplement au niveau de l’extraction d’input mais bien de la construction sémantique au sein de la mémoire de travail. Notre réflexion théorique fait donc entrer en dialogue des disciplines telles que la linguistique, la psycholinguistique, la didactique, les sciences cognitives. Elle fait également un état des lieux des différents outils numériques, afin de vérifier la compatibilité entre l’enseignement-apprentissage des langues étrangères et la technologie. Notre posture d’enseignant de terrain nous amène à considérer le numérique comme un facteur de motivation engageant fortement les usagers dans l’apprentissage de la langue étrangère. Cela d’autant plus que le public participant à notre étude est généralement peu motivé pour l’apprentissage des langues étrangères. La mise à disposition à des fins pédagogiques de tablettes tactiles, assimilables à des consoles de jeu, est-elle susceptible de les impliquer davantage et de modifier leur représentation de la langue cible? Pour répondre à cette question, nous menons deux expérimentations. Dans un premier temps, nous réalisons un pré-test permettant d’élaborer des hypothèses sur l’engagement cognitif des apprenants dans un environnement numérique. Nous observons l’usage réel et situé de tablettes numériques censées susciter la motivation par leur caractère ludique. Nous examinons également la posture des apprenants et leur capacité à exploiter l’information. A ce stade, la démarche conserve un caractère intuitif et les pratiques observées ne sont pas strictement encadrées. C’est pourquoi, dans un deuxième temps, nous procédons à une expérimentation plus structurée, en meilleure adéquation avec les critères de la recherche-action en langues vivantes étrangères. Nous en détaillons et en analysons les résultats. / The 21st century is commonly known as the “digital age”. Information technology has become a defining component of a new generation of learners, the so-called “digital natives”. Massive investment in digital learning equipment for schools has become a priority to meet the rising demands of society. Digital technologies, initially intended to supplement traditional course book instruction are fast replacing printed books altogether. Instant access to (mostly) authentic language material is a definite asset for developing linguistic skills and implementing the action-based approach prescribed by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. However, learner ability does not necessarily match all requirements for processing input from the Internet. Educators who believe in the added value of information technology in language pedagogy should therefore consider more carefully the actual cognitive capacities and cognitive engagement shown by learners when exposed to rich stimulus. For digital devices to become efficient pedagogical tools in language pedagogy, learner ability, teaching strategies, and technological implements must be mutually adjusted and integrated within a consistent framework. Although hypermedia is attractive, non-linear and interactive, it is essential to verify that learners do possess the skills and efficiency to process the information obtained from hypertext documents. Information processing is indeed a major challenge since it involves not only searching and retrieving relevant pieces of information, but requires some cognitive processing—a semantic construction within working memory. The perspective adopted here is thus multidisciplinary, with multiple references to linguistics, education, psycholinguistics, and cognitive science. Also needed are an overview of the various digital devices available and an assessment of their true relevance to language pedagogy. As a professional EFL teacher working in a vocational school, I consider digital technologies to be precious in motivating and engaging learners. The secondary school students involved in the current research study usually show little concern for language learning in the first place. The practical issue can thus be framed as “How can the use of tablets engage them as learners and favourably alter their conceptions of the second language?” To answer this question, a pre-test is set up to form preliminary hypotheses on degrees of cognitive engagement in the language classroom whenever digital devices are put to pedagogical use. The concrete, situated use of tablets is observed, their playful nature and expected contribution to motivation assessed. Learning attitudes and the ability to process information are subject to close scrutiny. At this preliminary stage, methods remain largely intuitive, and the activities or learning processes not strictly characterized. A more structured experiment setup must thus be created, based on more established criteria of action-research, the details and results of which are analysed in this dissertation.

The analysis of the thematic investigation was based on theoretical lines of Apple(2006) and Gimeno Sacristán (1999, 2000) with respect to the ideological dimension of the curriculum. It was considered also the ideas of Lefèvre and Lefèvre (2002; 2003; 2005) for the construction of the discourse of collective subject. The study consisted of a qualitative analysis from literature, documentary and field. It was a survey of legislation on remedial work studies parallel the period covering the Laws 4024/61, 5692/71 and 9394/96, and the resulting legal devices. The field research used the interview as a tool for gathering information that led to the discourse of collective subject, representative voice of the students interviewed. This speech sought to register the meanings of parallel recuperation projects and capacity in relation to the pleasure of learning, as perceived and assigned by the students of two public schools in the state, located in the North zone of Osasco. There was a huge disparity between what has been proposed by the public policy of the State of São Paulo in relation to recovery projects and parallel strengthening and the needs of students / Este trabalho visa analisar criticamente os projetos de recuperação paralela e reforço inseridos na Proposta Curricular do Projeto São Paulo faz escola, da Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo (gestão 2007-2010), avaliando-os enquanto ações dificultadoras ou facilitadoras da construção de um currículo escolar que considere o prazer de aprender por parte dos alunos que, apesar de terem concluído, no mínimo, seis anos de escolaridade no ensino fundamental, apresentam dificuldades de leitura e escrita. A análise da temática investigada pautou-se nas linhas teóricas de Apple (2006) e Gimeno Sacristán (1999; 2000), com relação à dimensão ideológica do currículo. Consideraram-se também as idéias de Lefèvre e Lefèvre (2002; 2003; 2005) para a construção do discurso do sujeito coletivo. O estudo consistiu em uma análise qualitativa a partir de pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e de campo. Foi feito um levantamento da legislação sobre estudos de recuperação paralela no período que abrangeu as Leis 4024/61, 5692/71 e 9394/96, e os dispositivos legais delas decorrentes. Quanto à pesquisa de campo, utilizou-se a entrevista como instrumento de coleta de informações que geraram a elaboração de um discurso do sujeito coletivo, representativo da voz dos alunos entrevistados. Esse discurso procurou registrar os sentidos dos projetos de recuperação e reforço em relação ao prazer de aprender, conforme percebidos e atribuídos pelos alunos de duas escolas da rede pública estadual, localizadas na zona norte de Osasco. Constatou-se uma forte disparidade entre o que tem sido proposto pelas políticas públicas do Estado de São Paulo em relação aos projetos de recuperação paralela e reforço e as necessidades dos alunos
