In the way of arrows: the production of illustrated instruction for children and its possibilities of interpretation

In the way of arrows: the production of illustrated instruction for children and its possibilities of interpretation

Peres, Rafaella Lopes P.; Campello, Silvio Barreto

Full Article:

This article proposes a reflection in the field of illustrated instructions for children taking into consideration the interpretation of graphical representations and the children''s use of sequential instructions. It describes the start-up of a doctoral research using observations in a classroom of an elementary school. The article pursuits the comprehension of how children deal whit pictoric representation: which are their levels of familiarity and their principal difficulties in the process of interpretation? It points, as a result, the fact that children are capable of decoding graphic visual language meaningfully and that they have a large interest in illustrated instructions. Besides that, it is important to be attentive to the users'' necessities and to their attitudes towards the representation presented in order to convey useful and substantial information.
