| local.description.resumo | Technology has become an extremely important part of our lives, to the point where people cannot imagine how things could possibly be done without it. While technology has made possible things we could never dream of a mere half century ago, it has also contributed to many environmental and social problems we face today. Our goal is to help students think critically about our modern world and its changing social dynamics, considering the positive and negative impacts of their virtual lives in their real, offline ones. The first unit shows how the Internet, especially in the form of the online social media platform YouTube, can bring not only entertainment, but also career opportunities, something unheard of even 10 years ago. They get to know a little more about vocabulary related to planning, motivation, YouTube specific terminology and even some personal marketing skills. The second unit brings a more critical perspective on online activities, an invitation to think about how the overuse of social media may be negatively affecting their personal relationships, productivity and their very humanity. The material is targeted at intermediate level students, older teenagers and young adults in a private language institute setting. The units are independent from each other, but the teacher can help students make a connection between them by asking questions that give them a chance to do so. The units are organized into warm-up, listening, reading, speaking and writing, using authentic materials. There is a teacher’s guide for both units, with answer key to the activities proposed. | |
