Retórica e leitura crítica: Rhetoric and critical reading: an overview of a workshop from the CIDAD outreach program

Abstract

Reports the experience of the Critical Reading Workshop project, linked to the outreach program "Commission for Informational Reliability and Misinformation Combat in the Digital Environment" (CIDAD), whose theme was the book Rhetoric, by Aristotle. We expose conceptual and methodological foundations of the Workshop and the history of the project. We describe how the two editions of the workshop on Rhetoric were conducted, the differences between face-to-face and remote format. We present the main topics and results achieved. We relate rhetoric to public discussion and the phenomenon of disinformation and its combat. We defend the development of critical reading as a skill that promotes informational reliability.
