    Includes bibliographical references and index.A lingua franca perspective into English language teaching in Brazil has only recently take flight. As an emerging economy, the country faces enormous challenges when it comes to language education in schools, where English has traditionally been taught as a foreign language. This collection brings the perspectives of academics and language practitioners in their efforts to incorporate an ELF approach into teacher education, thus offering a voice sorely missed in the international community interested in developing new approaches to English in a global world.Vanderlei J.

    Inglês como meio de instrução na pós-graduação stricto sensu no Brasil: análise dos documentos de áreas

    No full text
    The growth of English as a means of instruction as part of the internationalization strategy for higher education in Brazil has been verified through recent surveys (GIMENEZ et al., 2018). Among the motivations for its adoption in graduate programs (PPGs) there is the role of quality parameters established by the CAPES evaluation system. In this study, a content analysis of documents from knowledge areas was carried out in the item "Perspectives of the PPG internationalization process". The results indicated varying degrees of explicitness of the item "English medium classes" in different areas of knowledge, with a predominance in the College of Life Sciences (Agrarian Sciences, Biological Sciences and Health Sciences). It is speculated that this is due to the fact that these areas have greater power to generalize research results and international collaboration and in which English functions as the lingua franca of science with hegemony over other foreign languages.El crecimiento del inglés como medio de instrucción como parte de la estrategia de internacionalización de la educación superior en Brasil se ha verificado a través de encuestas recientes (GIMENEZ et al., 2018).

Los resultados indicaron diversos grados de explicitación del ítem "clases en inglés" en diferentes áreas del conocimiento, con predominio en las Ciencias de la Vida.

    The words beneath the sand: an examination of the works of three Virgin Islands poets, Cyril Creque, J. P. Gimenez, and J. Antonio Jarvis, 1995

    No full text
    This study is an excavation and examination of the works of Virgin Islands poets, Cyril Creque, I. P. Gimenez, and Antonio Jarvis, who wrote in the first half of the twentieth century. It looks at the historical and literary context that fostered them and provides a thorough study of one aspect of each man's poetry. In particular Creque's Romanticism is examined, as are Gimenez's vernacular poems, and Jarvis' dual consciousness. All three are examined from the perspective of the tensions created by their being products of the United States Virgin Islands, a territory at once Caribbean and American. The study set out to refute the assertions of critics that Virgin Islands poets were mere imitators of the European style. What has been revealed is a rich tapestry of original imagery and language, reflective of the Virgin Islands unique history and culture. A thorough examination of selected poems of each writer was conducted, as was research on each writer. This research was supported by available data and to a significant extent by information gathered from interviews with persons who knew the subjects of the study. This dissertation is, most likely, the first comprehensive critical work on Virgin Islands poetry and on Creque, Gimenez, and Jarvis. As such it will be useful to scholars interested in the literature of the Virgin Islands and also of the Caribbean and the United States of which the territory is a part. It verifies, not only the presence of a poetic heritage, but testifies to its quality as well as its significance in the two poetic traditions of which it is a part

    Crenças de licenciandos em Letras sobre o ensino do inglês

    The literature in the field of education has suggested that teachers have implicit beliefs about teaching and learning that guide their planning and their processes of decision-making in the classroom (Munby, 1982; Verloop, 1989, Johnson, 1994, and others). It has also been argued that undergraduate students join these programs with their own images of teaching and learning (Lortie, 1975, Bennett & Carré, 1993). This perspective finds support in the area of teacher thinking, that seeks to understand teaching based on how professionals think and act (Calderhead, 1987). Although studies in education have been addressing this perspective since the early 1980s, the adoption of such a theoretical framework for the teaching of foreign languages is recent (see Gimenez, 1995).A literatura na área de educação tem sugerido que professores possuem crenças implícitas sobre ensino/aprendizagem que guiam seu planejamento e os processos de tomada de decisões em sala de aula (Munby, 1982; Verloop, 1989; Johnson, 1994, dentre outros). Tem sido igualmente argumentado que alunos de licenciaturas ingressam nesses programas com imagens sobre ensino/aprendizagem (Lortie, 1975, Bennett & Carré, 1993). Esta perspectiva encontra respaldo na área de pensamento do professor, que procura compreender o ensino a partir de como pensam e agem os profissionais (Calderhead, 1987). Embora estudos em educação venham trabalhando nessa perspectiva desde o início dos anos 80, no ensino de língua estrangeira a incorporação deste referencial teórico é recente (vide Gimenez, 1995)

    The potential washback of a university entrance exam on the teaching of English as a foreign language in secondary schools and preparatory courses was the subject of a research project, whose results are partially reported. In this paper the results of the public preparatory course are presented, with a focus on the conceptions of language and language teaching held by the teacher who was observed and interviewed. Although there was explict reference to the exam (as it would be expected) some aspects of the test were not covered, due to the teachers' conceptualisatins of foreign language teaching in that context
