“Criar histórias com os amigos é muito divertido, a gente aprende e também ensina”: práticas educacionais abertas e autorias colaborativas com crianças

Abstract

The research aims to understand open educational practices with digital technologies as collaborative authoring devices for children in the second year of elementary school. In contemporary society, the growing integration of media in the educational area and the daily interactive practices experienced by children, among other implications, provoke us to reflect on the transformations in teaching and learning processes, mediation, modes of knowledge production at school and the dissemination of authorial resources in network. Open Educational Practices (OEP) present themselves as allies for this transformation, based on open teaching and the use and/or creation of Open Educational Resources (OER) that enhance creation, interaction, authorship and collaboration. The epistemological basis of this research is multi-referentiality, aiming for plural perspectives on the phenomena investigated. It is a training research with children aged seven and eight, inspired by the assumptions of ethnography in order to listen sensitively to the interlocutors during the OEP. The main devices used to produce the data were: interactive observation lasting four months in a class with twenty-one students, at the Dr. Carlos Melo Rotary State School, located in ItabaianaSE; a research diary; mediated conversation circles and authorship groups. The research findings were organized and analyzed from the perspective of hermeneutic interpretation, looking for the subsuming notions that emerged from the dialogical relationship between theory and empiricism. In this sense, the following notions were found in this research: "Interactivity and (co)creation in children's production"; "Transmediatic children's authorship" and "(Multi)literacies and/or in the construction of children's authorship". The study showed that transmedia storytelling have a great influence on the process of children's co-creation, linking manual drawings with the use and appropriation of digital technologies in transmedia authorial productions through interactivity, collaboration and (multi)literacy in the development of OEP and the creation of OER at school.
