URIBE-HINCAPIE, Richard Alonso; MONTOYA-MARIN, Juan Eliseo  e  GARCIA-CASTRO, Juan Fernando. Orality: A Foundation of Language Didactics and Evaluation. educ.educ. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.3, pp.471-486. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2019.22.3.7.

Orality is the first symbolic form of interacting with the world, not only because of the anthropological arrangement of human relations (among them and with other life forms), but also because it may be the only prosthesis established as a rational and reasonable device that provides a multiple structure for both hominization and humanization. This particular condition of articulated human language -which can be said to be close to perfection given the minimal changes it has undergone since its emergence until today- acts then as the highest point and measure of what can be considered cultural, symbolic, representative, identifying and, of course, human. Paradoxically, in the school setting, orality is understood as a human expression that lacks representativeness, academic power and sociocultural identifying character. All this pushes it into the background, makes it dependent on writing and causes its educational and pedagogical abolition, preventing it from being studied and researched by teachers and students. In the framework of this problem, orality is proposed as a basis for pondering on language didactics and evaluation and as a foundation of the education and transformation of individuals and society.
