The formation of the reading subject: The workshop as research and intervention in the UFPR pedagogy course

This article presents an excerpt from the master's research that investigated the reading subject in the pedagogy course at a Brazilian federal university. The present work discusses the workshop as a theoretical-methodological research-intervention procedure, used in the dissertation in question. Here we present the workshop as a relevant technology with which we research with the subject, and not simply about the subject, in a dialogical scene where researcher and researched are co-authors of the statements that result in a new text. The methodology proved to be a form of intervention in the researched reality, and in our case, a means of giving new meaning to institutionalized discourses. We conclude that the workshop reaffirms itself, therefore, as an interventional and transformative research proposal, in which institutionalized discursive practices are given new meaning.
