Research about teacher education, carried out in the area of Applied Linguistics (AL), reveals the importance of reflective practices in the professional development of teachers. With the aim of contributing to this area, we present this case study conducted at a technical school in Natal, RN. The corpus of the study is formed mainly from the teacher‟s discourse, generated during a stimulated recall session and the instruments used to collect the data: an initial questionnaire, a video recording of a class and the text transcript of the stimulated recall session. The central objective is to understand the way in which the reflection-on-action (SCHÖN, 1983, 1987) can contribute to raise the awareness of an English as a Foreign Language teacher (EFL) about her actions in the classroom. With this proposal, we begin our discussion presenting the origins, the presuppositions and characteristics of the concept of reflection according to Schön (1983, 1987), and supported by other authors (PERRENOUD, 2002; GÓMEZ, 1995; IMBERNÓN, 2009, among others); of critical reflection (LISTON e ZEICHNER, 1993; PIMENTA, 2002; DUTRA e MELLO, 2004, among others); and of the process of critical reflection (SMYTH, 1992). To evidence the reflections that emerge in the teacher‟s discourse, we found support in the theories and methods of Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG), which was initially proposed by Halliday (1985, 1994), Halliday and Hasan (1989), Halliday and Matthiessen (2004) and followers, such as, Eggins (1994), Thompson (1996), among others. We focus mainly on the subsystem of Attitude, an integral component of the system of discourse resources, Appraisal, presented by Martin (2000), Martin and Rose (2003, 2007), Martin and White (2005). The results reveal that the actions of the teacher in the classroom reflect not only her professional experiences, but also her values and concepts about teaching/learning languages. The results also show the teacher‟s awareness of the need for changes in her practices. Faced with these findings, we believe that this study reveals important concepts that can direct teacher educators to rethink new ways of approaching teacher training courses. In addition, it also reveals the importance of discourse analysis based on a systemic functional approach.

This dissertation aims at characterizing the practices as well as the effects of a teacher s feedback in oral conversation interaction with students in an English Language classroom at a Primary School, 6th Grade in Açu/RN, Brazil. Therefore, this study is based on Vygotsky s (1975) and Bruner´s (1976) researches, which state that the learning process is constructed through interaction between a more experienced individual (teacher, parents and friends) and a learner who plays an active role, a re-constructor of knowledge. It is also based on Ur´s (2006) and Brookhart s (2008) studies (among other authors in Applied Linguistic) who defend that the feedback process needs to be evaluative and formative since it sets interfaces with both students autonomy and learning improvement. Our study is based on qualitative, quantitative and interpretive researches, whose natural environment (the classroom) is a direct source of data generated in this research through field observations/note-taking as well as through the transcriptions of five English classes audio taped. This study shows the following results: the teacher still seems to accept the patterns of interaction in the classroom that correspond to the IRE process (Initiation, Response, Evaluation) in behaviorist patterns: (1) he speaks and determines the turns of speech; (2) the teacher asks more questions and directs the activities most of the time; (3) the teacher´s feedback presents the following types: questioning, modeling, repeated response, praise, depreciation, positive/negative and sarcasm feedback, whose functions are to assess students' performance based on the rightness and wrongness of their responses. Thus, this implies to state that the feedback does not seem to help students improvement in terms of acquiring knowledge because of its normative effects/roles. Therefore, it is the teacher´s role to give evaluative and formative feedback to a student so that he/she should advance in the learning of the language and in the construction of knowledge

This work aims at analyzing the activities presented in the book On Stage for junior high school students, which was selected by IFRN, as well as checking out the students interest for play activities. We have come from the point that playing activities can contribute to the increasing of motivation for the teaching of English (BROUGERE, 1999; WRIGHT, BETTERIDGE, BUCKBY, 2006; LANGRAN e PURCELL, 1994). At first place, our research is a document analysis and in second place, it is an action research. We have proposed two questionnaires for the participants of this work, all of them are High school students at IFRN-Campus Zona Norte, in order to check out their interests and the degree of motivation for the English learning before and after the carrying out of play activities. The obtained data also showed that the students became more motivated and interested in the classes after working with play activities, and most of the students agreed with the inclusion of these activities in the selected course book. The result of our work proved the benefits of play activities according to researches available in the literature about this subject. From the results acquired in the present work, we suggest that play activities should be included in English course books, even when they are addressed to High School teaching in order to help increasing the motivation for the learning of a foreign language

O presente estudo investiga as práticas avaliativas em inglês como Língua Estrangeira para Crianças (LEC) no primeiro ano do ensino fundamental das escolas públicas no município de Castanhal, PA. A pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar quais as orientações contidas nos documentos oficiais municipais no que diz respeito ao ensino e à avaliação em LEC, descrever as práticas avaliativas desenvolvidas pelos docentes nesse contexto, analisar a integração dessas práticas com os objetivos de ensino e aprendizagem de LEC e indicar pistas que possam, teórica e metodologicamente, tornar essas práticas mais eficazes. Para alcançar os objetivos propostos, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa de caráter documental, na qual foram analisados os documentos oficiais que norteiam o ensino e a avaliação em LEC no município, 220 relatórios de desenvolvimento, que são o instrumento de avaliação preconizado para esse nível da escolaridade, além de entrevistas e questionários com 14 docentes que atuam nesse contexto. O referencial teórico sustenta-se nas contribuições de Cameron (2001), Strecht-Ribeiro (2005) e Scott e Ytreberg (1990) sobre o ensino-aprendizagem de LEC, bem como na discussão de alguns aspectos da avaliação da aprendizagem (HADJI, 1994; 2007; BONNIOL e VIAL, 2001; FERNANDES, 2009; PERRENOUD, 1999) e da avaliação da aprendizagem em LEC (MCKAY, 2006; IOANNOU-GEORGIOU, 2011; SHAABAN, 2001). Para a análise dos dados obtidos, foi utilizada a técnica de Análise de Conteúdo (ROSA, 2013). Os resultados da análise indicam uma ausência de coerência entre as práticas avaliativas e os objetivos e princípios do ensino de LEC. Os dados revelam ainda a falta de formação para ensinar, avaliar e elaborar programas de LEC, aliada a uma já conhecida tendência em se priorizar aspectos estruturais no ensino de línguas estrangeiras, em detrimento de atividades comunicativas. Por fim, este trabalho mostra a necessidade de promover outras pesquisas que investiguem as práticas avaliativas em LEC e, da urgência em se definir diretrizes oficiais nacionais para o ensino e avaliação que levem em consideração as características e necessidades das crianças nesse contexto.
