Unidade didática para ensino de Inglês

Abstract

This was the reason why I personally chose the CEI (Curso de Especialização em Ensino de Inglês Faculdade de Letras - UFMG) program, to find ways of making the difference. Throughout the course I could revisit some approaches to ESL/EFL, as well as be introduced to a number of theories that I was not familiar with, having the opportunity to experiment with some of them not only in the CEI modules disciplines, but also in my daily classroom life. The required final paper was the production of two complete units in which we should bridge the gap between theories and practice. The units cover the four skills (listening, speaking, writing and reading), besides focusing on a language aspect and dealing with different text genres and offering a pronunciation practice. All the materials selected were authentic, which enable leaners to relate the unit topics with the real world, bringing a sense of relevance to what they are studying, besides promoting interest and motivation, once they get more involved when what is brought into class is meaningful.
