More than expanding access to reading, the platform promotes a type of digital-literary literacy in which the act of reading is intertwined with practices of interaction, production, and sharing. The general objective of this study is to analyze Wattpad as a tool for the development of young readers in the digital age, considering the transformations of the book and reading practices in cyberspace. Regarding the specific objectives, the following stand out: to understand the transformation of the book from printed to digital format, situating it within the context of the information age; to discuss reading practices in cyberspace, considering changes in ways of reading and relating to literary texts in digital environments; and to examine Wattpad as a space that contributes to the consolidation of reading among young people. The methodology employed is characterized by a bibliographic and quantitative approach, which included the application of a questionnaire to frequent Wattpad users. This study is justified by the need to understand youth reading practices that take place outside school and institutional settings, especially in digital environments such as Wattpad, where reading occurs as an everyday experience integrated with leisure, identity, and digital sociability. For the construction of the theoretical framework, the studies of Chartier (1998) were considered, whose contributions make it possible to understand the historical trajectory of the book and reading practices, from manuscript to print and to digital media; Martino (2015), who analyzes languages and processes of meaning production in the networked digital environment; and Santaella (2006), who understands reading as a historically constructed cognitive model, conditioned by the technical means of production and circulation of signs. The results of this study show that Wattpad acts as a relevant formative environment for young readers by consolidating reading practices supported by regularity, emotional engagement, and long-term continuity. In addition, the data indicate that Wattpad expands young people’s literary repertoire by enabling frequent contact with different genres, styles, and narrative forms, contributing to the development of reading competencies. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/6047 Título: O uso da Tecnologia Digital no ensino da escrita: um estudo de caso em uma escola pública no município de Zé Doca Abstact: This study aims to understand how digital resources influence teaching practice in the Language Arts area, based on activities developed with 9th-grade students at the Princesa Isabel Municipal School, located in the municipality of Zé Doca-MA. The research is situated within the context of the transformations caused by digital culture in writing instruction and seeks to analyze how these changes are reflected in daily school life. This is a basic, exploratory, and descriptive study with a qualitative approach, developed through field research. Methodological procedures included participant observation, application of a questionnaire to the Portuguese Language teacher, and analysis of pedagogical documents used in classes. The results indicated that, although the teacher recognizes the pedagogical potential of digital technologies and affirms that she uses them frequently, the use of these resources occurs sporadically and without much systematization. A predominance of traditional pedagogical practices and an absence of writing activities mediated by digital technologies were observed. It is concluded that, despite the existence of technological resources in schools and a discourse favorable to innovation, digital technologies are not yet configured as a transformative element in writing teaching practices, highlighting the need for greater integration of these resources into pedagogical planning and teacher training 2026-01-09T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/5647 Título: Neologismos: uma análise baseada em manifestações linguísticas de estudantes da 1ª série do ensino médio Abstact: The evolutionary character of the language occurs temporally and continuously, and the renewal of the linguistic system relies on the creative and recreative capacity of the speakers, through the use of important elements for the process of construction, updating and transformation of the language through the formation of new words and attributions of new meanings. Among these components that act in the construction of new words are neologisms, a linguistic phenomenon studied in the semantic and lexical scope in this work. In this vein, the present investigation deals with linguistic manifestations, such as neologisms, evidenced in the linguistic practices of high school students. That said, the present work aimed to analyze the presence of neologisms in the language of students in the first year of high school, as a factor that marks the evolutionary nature of any language. In the theoretical scope, the basis comes from authors such as: Alves (2010), Barbosa (1981), Guilbert (1975) Cunha and Cintra (2017), Boulanger (1979), Cabré (2010), Mattielo (2017) and Carvalho (2000). Regarding the methodology, it is an exploratory research, in terms of objectives, and field, in relation to procedures, with a qualitative approach adopted in the data analysis. Regarding the results, it was found that the juvenile lexicon cooperates directly with the active and dynamic process of the language through the neologic creations 2025-02-03T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/5589 Título: A intertextualidade no instagram: uma análise de memes sobre o terceiro governo Lula (2023-2026) Abstact: This study focuses on analyzing intertextuality in the meme genre, with an emphasis on productions that address the current Brazilian presidency. The research explores how memes use intertextual resources to construct meaning, especially when associated with public figures and government events. In addition to analyzing the memes themselves, the work considers user interactions in the comments section, aiming to capture the different ways in which shared content is received. The overall objective is to investigate the phenomenon of intertextuality present in memes depicting the current Brazilian government, understanding how these intertextual elements are perceived by internet users. The analysis is based on the principle that memes are linguistic practices that interact with various texts. The study falls within the field of Textual Linguistics, which allows for an understanding of the factors of textuality and the mechanisms of meaning construction in texts. The theoretical basis was constructed from Koch (1997, 2008, 2021), Marcuschi (2002, 2008), Bakhtin (1997), as well as thinkers such as Dawkins (2007), Chagas (2020) and Fragoso (2022), who contribute to the understanding of the phenomenon of memes. This is a bibliographic research of a qualitative nature, developed from the collection and analysis of data from the digital platform Instagram, considering the relevance of this network as a space for the circulation and production of intertextual texts 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z
