III VariaR International Seminar
Teaching Portuguese around the world
We have organised the third seminar on 11 October 2023 (4am-7pm, Brasilia time), in partnership with researcher Patricia Vanessa de Ramos (University of Augsburg), organised in a hybrid format (online speakers and an audience of teachers and students from the University of Augsburg in person). The purpose of this space is to bring together researcher-speakers, researchers and teachers interested in the conferences around questions that serve as a starting point for approaching the seminar's central theme - Portuguese teaching in the world:
Teaching Portuguese inside and outside Brazil:
What are the characteristics of teaching in the community/country in which you work?
What training programmes are involved in teaching Portuguese?
What is the profile of the students/teachers?
What is the basic concept of grammar/variation? What variety is taught? How is variation dealt with in the classroom? With what content/materials/corpora?
What are the new challenges for teaching Portuguese, bearing in mind, among other things, the relationship between technology, society, diplomacy and transculturality?
For the operationalisation context:
What image of Portuguese do you deal with?
What official documents are there to guide the teaching of native and non-native Portuguese?
What priority is given to text and discourse as objects of configuration in the Portuguese classroom?
What bridges have been built between research, teaching and/or activism in society?
Date: 11 October 2023
