Resumo: |
This study, developed under a qualitative approach, is grounded in theoretical aspects of the teaching/learning of English as L2. It aims at investigating the implementation of a teaching proposal which uses the four abilities (reading, writing, speaking and listening) integratively. In order to meet this goal, students needs analysis concerning the use of English in the social context was conducted , followed by the identification of the mechanisms used during the application of the units which proved to foster the development of L2 teaching and learning. The research was done in a state school, and the subjects were middle-school 6-graders in the twelve to thirteen age bracket. The data under analysis originated from 10 sessions as far as the theoretical background is concerned, needs analysis, reflection on action, the variables introduced by Krashen (1985) and the research on the teaching of speech production and perception in L2 were taken into account. The interviews in the community, the needs analysis questionnaire and the teaching units were important tools used in data collection. The teaching units were divided into 3 stages: 1) reading comprehension and vocabulary; 2) recognition; 3) listening comprehension and oral production. In the first stage, it was analyzed the ability of the student to interpret the text, considering his/her knowledge of the world and the mother tongue. In the second stage, recognition/perception, qualitative listening was developed, in order for the students to perceive the phonetically relevant detail in the acquisition of segmental distinctions in English. In the third stage, comprehension and oral production, oral comprehension was dealt so as to promote students involvement in social interaction. Krashen s Theory of Second Language Acquisition was also very important in data analysis once, while discussing the acquisition-learning process in L2, this author emphasizes the importance of affective variables in this process. Research results demonstrated that this study helped to promote a reflection about the learning and teaching of oral skills in English in an L2 context. It also raised awareness to the fact that the use of students needs analysis, coupled with reflexive practice on the part of both student and teacher, can provide valuable input, as they facilitate the learning process in English |
