As implicações didáticas para o ensino secundário que derivam das competências metafonológicas em alunos do ensino superior

Abstract

We identify ten didactic implications to be considered when building activities to promote metaphonological competence in students of basic and secondary education. This identification is based on the results obtained by 36 college students, native speakers of EP, in tasks of metaphonological competence: five tasks on segmental awareness; one on awareness of phonological processes; one on explicit knowledge about phonological processes. Responses to those tasks were analysed in order to provide guidelines for planning educational intervention. The relatively low scores obtained suggest the need to clearly distinguish oral and written systems, promote analysis of linguistic data and teach phonological metalanguage.
