Title of presentation: Literature: Macbeth: a good deal in English Language Lessons

Summary of presentation: Literary texts stimulate the students to develop their critic point of view at the same time they develop their learning abilities. It happens because Literature represents the real and the writer’s words can be truly interpreted. In this way, this panel intends to show some different ways to teachers use to involve their students in English Language learning through Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth.

                        Prof. Sara Walker- British Council

With the World Cup and the Olympics coming to Brazil soon, tourism will increase and the chances of our students having a real life opportunity to speak English are improving.  In this session, we will look at some simple speaking activities to encourage students [and perhaps some teachers] to overcome their inhibitions and start to speak English.

Our concepts are based in Bakhtin ideas about gender texts.

Aline Clemente Pereira da Silva e Marcia Letrícia Gomes Barbosa – UFT – Student Course – ( Orientandas do PIVIC da profª Ana Emília) - Porto Nacional

Title of presentation: Representations about English Language Teaching Built by Teachers from Public Schools of Porto Nacional and Region

Summary of presentation : In this communication we intend to present some results of our research :O Desenvolvimento da Autonomia do Professor e do Aluno no Processo de  Ensino-Aprendizagem de Língua Inglesa em Escolas Públicas de Porto Nacional, Tocantins. One of thegoals of the research is to accomplish a survey in the public schools of  Porto Nacional and region, in order to identify which representations  are built by teachers regarding the English Language Teaching-learning, and based on the results propose activities of understanding the importance of learning a foreign language, looking for possible ways for the students to produce their own knowledge, surpassing the limits of the school walls, in view of their autonomy.

Until now, we have given some questionnaires to the teachers. They were supposed to answer questions about their practice so that we could analyze how they see the English Language Teaching what their beliefs are, what teaching methods they use in their classes. By reading the answers to the questionnaires we noticed repeated textual configurations, similar points of view and similar methods of teaching.

 

16:00 – 16:30 -  Coffee break

 

16:30-17:30 – WORKSHOPS

 

Workshop 1 – João Paulo F. Tinoco Machado; Márcia Letrícia G. Barbosa; Natália Cristina de Oliveira – Graduandos  em Letras e Monitores do CECCLA – UFT – Profª Daniella Corciolli

Title of presentation: Some helpful ways to improve the teaching and learning of English as a foreign language

Summary of presentation: This workshop aims at showing and helping teachers to develop different techniques to teach English as a foreign language. As students of Language Arts at Federal University of Tocantins and, at the same time, English teachers at CECLLA, we have been led to the reflection about our classes and to the way we deal with our students and their learning of English language. The project - CECLLA (Centro de Estudos Continuados em Letras, Linguística e Artes) - has given us the opportunity to improve our English learning and teaching abilities. Therefore, we intend to share our experiences with other teachers of English, helping them with some information and ideas to be applied in their classrooms. Based on our lessons at CECLLA and on our own reflections about different language teaching approaches and methods, we have chosen some activities such as the use of ‘authentic’ language, realia, games, question-and-answer drills and role-plays (Larsen-Freeman, 2010) to make it easier to teachers working with the target language.

 

Workshop 2 – Everton Francisco da Silva – CECCLA – UFT – Porto Nacional

Title of presentation: The Uses of Affixes: Prefixes and Suffixes in English Language

Summary of presentation: This workshop aims at showing to elementary students of English language some clues about dealing with different and new English words. It also aims at teaching them some easy ways to find out the meaning of several words without the massive use of dictionaries. As we know that the learning about the uses of different affixes - prefixes and suffixes - can help elementary students in the difficult task of translating or understanding English texts in the beginning of their learning, it is our objective selecting and increasing students consciousness about some prefixes and suffixes, that they commonly use without paying much attention to their correct application, when learning English. In this workshop we intend to develop the following steps: firstly we are going to select the most used affixes. Secondly we are going to divide some words into categories to demonstrate the ways a word turns into a verb, a noun or an adjective through the use of affixes, reaching the point where students will realize how easy the learning of English becomes when we apply some techniques smartly.

 

 

 

SATURDAY MORNING

 

08:30 - 10:00 – PLENARY SESSION

                           The Teaching of Speaking and Listening Skills: Can you do that?

                           Ana  Emília Fajardo Turbin- UFT Porto Nacional

 

The plenary talk will focus on the importance of speaking and listening skills in the process of teaching the English language. It is very common to talk to people who want to study English and they make it clear they want to have conversations in the Foreign language. Even teachers from state and municipal  schools,  when asked why they want to study English, answer that  the reason is to speak better English. It seems  that the spoken discourse when the teacher is talking to their students needs to be enhanced, and this should be a continued process for English teachers. It is important for the teachers to learn techniques that make the class meaningful and enjoyable for the students to develop their speaking and listening skills. The plenary will focus on a few techniques  in order to  accomplish the objective of making teachers and students talk more in the English classes.

 

10:00 – 11:30- WORKSHOPS

Workshop 1- Daniella Corciolli - UFT Porto Nacional –TO

Title of presentation: The post method era: developing the teacher’s sense of plausibility through the practice of reflection.

Summary of presentation: This workshop aims at leading English language teachers to know and think about different conceptions concerning the most important methods and approaches used in language teaching contexts. Based on the work of Prabhu (1990), we are going to promote teachers’ reflections about the roles and goals of different methods and about their own roles as teachers, building or raising a sense of involvement that will lead them to feel more conscious, responsible and autonomous about their work. According to Rocha (2008), teachers need to develop and operate their work considering their own understanding of what is adequate and possible to their students, school or community. As we know, being able to formulate or choose a set of practices that best match students’ needs is not easy without a deep knowledge of cultural, social and contextual factors. Such as important as favoring teachers’ development of personal conceptualization about their teaching, it is crucial to make them reflect about what different approaches and methods can offer or contribute to their work and, of course, about the role of reflection itself.

 

 

Workshop 2- Elisa Alencar- UFT- Araguaína - TO

 

Title of presentation: Are you a green teacher?

Summary of presentation : Sustainability has been  a current topic  at schools. Teachers are supposed to work with the topics about the environment to make students more aware of their responsibility as citizens of the world. This workshop aims to present some practical and easy activities to be used in the classroom.
