A educação de professores de línguas em CALL: histórico e perspectivas

Over the last years, the new technologies have changed the way we relate to information and communicate with other people, which has brought on impact to foreign language teaching and learning, and, consequently, to the area of foreign language teacher education. The abbreviation CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning) has been used to designate the processes of language teaching and learning with the use of computers, and language teacher education in CALL to name teacher education for and with the use of new technologies, since a number of authors point to the interdependence of both processes. We intend in this article to present an overview of the literature of the area of language teacher education in CALL nowadays and discuss issues related to the use of new technologies concerning its integration to teacher education and the functional and institutional roles to be taken. We also present two proposals of teacher education with the use of new technologies which are being implemented and at the same time studied in Brazil, which we believe have essential elements for the development of language teachers for and with the use of new technologies currently.

Análise de desempenho dos codecs suportados pelo Asterisk com e sem criptografia

The main objective is to analyze the performance of some codecs supported by Asterisk with and without encryption using RTP and SRTP, respectively, providing important data for decision-making in the implementation of a VoIP system with Asterisk. Thus, it is possible to realize both codecs as the protocol can be chosen depending on the application, or the system's main feature is the speed packet switching, security level or lower tolerance for unsuccessful calls. For this, tests were made with the codec with and without the use of cryptography to obtain some findings on the use of the same, giving more attention to the response time for the start of a call.
