“Palabras que moven o mundo”: o ensino da literatura máis aló das aulas universitarias

galego“Palabras que moven o mundo” e un proxecto interdisciplinar levado a cabo no curso 2017/2018 no marco de tres materias do Mestrado Universitario en Profesorado de Educacion Secundaria Obrigatoria e Bacharelato, Formacion Profesional e Ensinanza de Idiomas en que participou o alumnado do modulo especifico de Linguas e Literaturas galega e castela. Asenta na vindicacion do habitat e gravita arredor de tres elementos sobre os que queremos reformular a practica docente: o espazo publico, o uso da palabra escrita por parte de quen transita por este e a poesia, desde a conviccion de que existe unha retroalimentacion positiva entre todos eles. Asi, a sua implementacion contribuiu a facer mais habitabeis os espazos intervidos e estes actuaron, asemade, como resortes de visibilidade para o xenero poetico e fomentaron a lectura fora dos espazos en que esta constitue unha practica excesivamente ritualizada, promovendo a formacion do alumnado en metodoloxias activas e ampliando a sua concepcion de literatura e dos espazos en que debe proxectarse. Outrosi, a potencialidade transformadora do proxecto favoreceu tamen que o alumnado se decatase da importancia do espazo publico como ambito de dialogo e reflexion social e da dimension das artes como xeradoras de pensamento critico. English“Words to Rock the World” is an interdisciplinary project carried out during the 2017/2018 academic year in the context of three subjects belonging to the Master’s Degree in Teacher Training (University of A Coruna) and involving students from the module on Language and Literature in Galician and Spanish. Grounded on a particular interest in space, the project is organized around three elements and their potential intersections: public spaces, the use of the written word by those who inhabit such spaces, and (the vindication of) poetry. Its implementation has contributed to making the featured spaces more habitable, while adding visibility to the poetic genre and promoting the act of reading poetry in broader – and less ritualised – contexts and spaces. This, in turn, has served to train students in various methodologies of active learning as well as to widen their approach to literature, both in itself and in relation to the spaces in which it is usually consumed. In addition, the transforming potential of this project has also helped students to apprehend the importance of public spaces as sites of dialogue and social reflection, while reinforcing the potential of various artistic manifestations to engender critical thinking.
