Resumo(s)
With the wide spread of technological artifacts, that started with typewriter
machines and reached computers, tablets and smartphones, the teaching of writing in primary schools has been treated, each time more, with disdain. Therefore, questions about how it would be possible to encourage the teaching of writing in schools and how to make it attractive and not repetitive for children and teachers formed the basis for the development of this study, which aims to design a typeface as a didactic tool that is adequate for nowadays and to contribute to the improvement of child writing education. For this, and in order to better understand the current situation of teaching handwriting, this study starts with a theoretical context of what has been produced in this area in order to corroborate choices that were made and to promote a temporal placement of the subject. Names linked to calligraphy / typography such as Manuel Barata, Andrade de Figueiredo, Jacinto de Araújo and Ventura da Silva will be present at the past background, and others like Rosemary Sassoon, Nan Jay Barchowsky and Paul Heitlinger will be facing the contemporaneity. Also in this sense, there is a brief analysis of studies, works and projects that have already been made regarding the creation and use of typographic fonts made specifically for children who are having their first contact with the letters and which are in the process of developing their fine motor skills through writing.
Besides the typographical study, this work has educational psychologist
foundations with the objective of understanding the cognitive abilities of children, their real and imaginary limitations, and its consequences in the future. Moreover, understand and explain the methods of teaching and learning of writing used in schools nowadays is critical to obtain a coherent, relevant and reliable result. Finally, a fieldwork was done in which the font designed was applied in classrooms to evaluate its effectiveness. In addition, questions to the children and to the teachers were asked, which will serve as basis to the font be adapted in accordance to perceived and studied needs. Viii So, this work seeks to emphasize the importance of developing a greater typographic awareness with regard to the teaching of children handwriting through the use of contemporary fonts right to children and to the contemporary world, proving that handwriting, before disappearing, must be reformulated and adapted to current needs, anticipating possible future needs. After all, handwriting as well as being a form of communication has expression characteristics of the person who designs it and conveys the spirit of the time in which we live
