Regina ClÃudia Pinheiro

The use of technologies in modern society made possible the democratization of knowledge and caused many changes in the ways we think, act, and communicate. Through these technologies, we also had the opportunity to interact with a new way of enunciating: the hypertext. This work compare the printed text reading with hypertext reading in relation to metacognitive strategies from proficient readers. Our theoretical bases are psycholinguistic theories, as well as some researches on the specific kind of texts we investigate. With the purpose of testing our presupposition, we worked with fifteen teachers from Ensino MÃdio, who displayed to be proficient readers when read printed text and who had experience with reading on the Internet. The technique used to verify the strategies the teachers carried out was the verbal protocol: the readers verbalized their thoughts as they read. The results showed that the strategies used for reading printed texts were the same used to understand hypertexts. However, in the reading of the latter, some of those strategies have particular characteristics, due to the format of the hypertext. Other strategies used by the subjects who took part in our research were also observed, while they read hypertexts, like to read like previewing the homepage, to look for smaller texts, to look at the text size before to read, to prefer text with picture, to give up reading some hypertexts fragments. The results contribute to creation of a reading model that contemplate the hypertext comprehension too.
