Educomunicação, uma proposta pedagógica: roteiro estruturado para uso de podcasts no ensino médio integrado

Abstract

Educommunication is an educational proposal within active methodologies that seeks to contribute to the autonomy of the student. The role of Educommunication is to channel what already exists in media production, marked by characteristics such as creativity, contextualization of content, cooperation, free expression, interactivity, and experimentation. The educommunicative praxis in Educação Profissional e Tecnológica is a resource that can build relationships between theoretical content and student practice. In this context, this work addresses the use of podcasts as a pedagogical proposal in educommunication in Ensino Médio Integrado, indicating the use of a structured script and audio program production model that can be applied to any discipline. In this sense, a problem is presented: does a structured podcast production script arouse the interest of Ensino Médio Integrado teachers for the adoption of educommunication as an educational practice? The proposed script is an integral part of the e-book (digital book), which is the Educational Product. Thus, the research aims to identify to what extent a structured script can arouse the interest of Ensino Médio Integrado teachers for the adoption of educommunication as an educational practice. To achieve this, specific objectives were stipulated: highlight teachers' previous understanding of educommunication as an educational practice; identify the level of knowledge and interest of the teacher regarding the use of podcasts as an educommunicative instrument, based on the structured script; and analyze the content of the product that may arouse teachers' interest in educommunication as an educational practice. The study investigated the proposed procedures for implementation and the results obtained by teachers of Ensino Médio Integrado at the Campus Campo Grande of the Instituto Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, who agreed to participate in the research based on the proposed script in the e-book, identifying the operational and technological conditions for the use of podcasts by teachers in the subjects they teach in Ensino Médio Integrado courses, whether in-person or remotely. The research follows a qualitative approach, of a descriptive-explanatory nature, with the main instrument being the semi-structured interview applied to teachers at the Instituto Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, the research subjects, in the year 2022. The results indicate that, after contact with the e-book, teachers deepened their knowledge of educommunication, recognizing benefits such as student engagement and the development of communicative skills, although practical challenges such as lack of time and resources were highlighted. Improvement suggestions included creating infographics to make the material more accessible, and the research emphasized the ongoing need for training and institutional support for the effective implementation of educational technologies.
