Resumo: |
The goals of the current project are (1) to detect the major discourses/themes in registers that school children generally engage with, in and out of school; and (2) to verify the extent to which these discourses reflect ethical principles, more specifically those in UNESCO’s Education for Global Citizenship program. The motivation for this study include (a) little research has been carried out on children-targeted registers from a corpus and discourse perspectives; most research in corpus linguistics focuses on registers used in adult life; (b) language educators are often expected to select materials for their lessons that uphold ethical principles such as the prevention of harm, solidarity, equity and justice, but their perceptions of how particular texts adhere to these principles may be at odds with the actual language used in the texts. A corpus of registers commonly used in and out of the classroom by teachers and young learners was collected, comprising 800 texts in total from television/film animation, nursery rhymes, television series and videogame narrative. A lexical multidimensional analysis was carried out, which pointed out five major discourses or themes: (1) Searching for safety and planning actions; (2) Situation, problem solution and evaluation; (3) Well-being and movement; (4) Being polite and expressing feelings; (5) Describing scenes, background and people. These major discourses do not reflect the exact UNESCO ethical principles, but a different set of values. In order to triangulate these results, the corpus was coded for ethical principles by three coders, using a scale based on the UNESCO principles. Then a Discriminant Function Analysis was run in order to determine if the coders’ perceptions could be predicted. The results showed the coder’s judgments could be predicted from the lexis on average 70% of the time. Overall, the findings show how ethical principles are indexed in the major discourses, and suggest lexis can be used as a predictor of ethical judgment |
