INTERAÇÃO E CONSTRUÇÃO DO CONHECIMENTO NA SALA DE AULA DE LÍNGUA ESTRANGEIRA

Résumé

The main purpose of the present study was to present and evaluate, through ethnographic micro-analysis, the proposal of new methodological procedures regarding the teaching/learning process in EFL. The theoretical framework adopted derives from Pragmatism, Socio-Interactional Theory of learning and Discourse Analysis. Focusing on the oral skill, the micro-analysis conducted pointed towards the possibility of change in the educational context when teachers and pupils engaged themselves in a process of metacognition concerning human communication and interaction.
