This thesis analyzes the interaction between teachers, Normal School students, newspapers and news sites. Its objective is to know how often these students follow the news through each media, what kind of information is interesting in their opinion and what publications and web sites are read by them. Deepening these issues, also analyzes the possible impact that the media has on their daily lives. It takes as main reference Roger Chartier’s theory, especially with regard to what the author says about Digital Revolution. The research involved quantitative and qualitative basis, with 253 students of nine state schools - four in the city of Rio de Janeiro and five in the metropolitan area of the state of Rio de Janeiro. They answered a questionnaire with information about their relationship with the media, their reading practices and those of their parents and friends, their professional future, how do their schools use media and socio-economic data. The analysis of the questionnaires shows that the public mostly consists of women of mixed ethnicity. These students, to keep up, read more newspapers than news sites, although they have wide access to the internet. They value the information because they know that being up to date with the news brings benefits such as being more prepared for exams and more protected from the dangers of the world, besides having more content. The news they read are more focused on personal than professional interests. They also believe that school is a space for discussion and reflection on the media, but, from their answers, we can notice that their schools do not use this instrument as they should - there are few who have free access to newspapers and sites on their educational institutions. Their contact with the papers is at home, thus showing that parents play an important role in this process.
