Cordel Literature in the Classroom: Reflections from the Podcast Developed by Pet-Letras/Ufpe

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to describe the elaboration of the episode "Cordel literature in the classroom", which is part of the Tutorial Education Program (PET-Letras) Podcast of the Federal University of Pernambuco, broadcast on the Group's YouTube channel, the Parafraseando. We aim to reflect on the place of cordel literature in the classroom, relating the speech of the interviewee, Professor Helder Pinheiro (UFCG), to theories about poetry in the classroom, in order to present the methodology for the construction of this type of extension action that has been giving good results. It is also interesting to point out that the construction of the podcast comes from the need that the group had to continue its outreach activities in the face of the new coronavirus pandemic.
