CURRíCULO: TECNOLOGIAS, EDUCAÇãO E CULTURA DIGITALMaria Elizabeth Bianconcini de AlmeidaPonti fí cia universidade Católica de São Paulo – PuC/SP

Em tempos de Internet, tecnologias de informação e comunicação, mídias digitais e múlti plas linguagens de expressão do pensamento novos contornos para as práti cas educacionais vão se delineando, sobretudo, quando se trata da educação midiati zada por essas tecnologias, que se expandem verti ginosamente com promessas de economia, educação acessível a todos, a qualquer tempo e de todo lugar não importando qual a distância geográfi ca. A par dessas facilidades, proliferam propostas de educação digital ancoradas em disti ntas abordagens educacionais que oscilam entre a pedagogia da

transmissão baseada na distribuição em massa de conteúdos e a pedagogia pautada pelo diálogo e produção colaborati va de conhecimento, propiciando novos modos de lidar com o conhecimento, criar, pensar, comunicar, aprender e ensinar. Isto signifi ca que a educação digital viabiliza disti ntas concepções de currículo (planejado e realizado), que se desenvolve com o uso de linguagens verbais, icônicas, sonoras, visuais. No entanto, a oferta de conteúdos representados de modo a-linear com a integração de múlti plas linguagens pode não ser sufi ciente para despertar o interesse e a parti cipação dos alunos de modo que eles permaneçam no curso e possam se desenvolver. A palestra pretende enfati zar o currículo da cultura digital, isto é, o web currículo, com o propósito de elucidar as potencialidades de se desenvolver um currículo integrado com as tecnologias digitais de informação e comunicação e com as diferentes linguagens midiáti cas para a interação social, a reconstrução de signifi cados e a produção colaborati va de conhecimentos.

Yázigi OPs play a very important part in the success of the school and moti vati on of teachers and students. They deal with problems, work out soluti ons and actually make a diff erence in these people’s lives. It’s a rewarding positi on but it can be a ti ring one if the OPs don’t look at themselves, their lives and careers, trying to maintain their spirits and moti vati on high.Self-coaching is a way of getti ng to know yourself bett er, your needs and take control of your ti me, tasks and talent. Going through this process will enable you to develop yourself into a bett er professional and a happier person. So, are you ready to coach yourself?

“Guide your teachers as a lighthouse: Allow them to make their own way through the classes, their sea. Do not chart their course for them, rather show them where the shore is and assist them in fi nding it themselves.”If a supporti ve in-service work of classroom observati ons, feedback and talk sessions, and pedagogical meeti ngs does not take place, it is easy for teachers do deviate from their practi ce and fall into the trap of automati sm. Pedagogical Coordinators can and must help their group of teachers to link their theoreti cal knowledge and their everyday practi ce. Results suggest that even when teachers’ theory-in-acti on diff ers from their espoused theory, with coordinators guidance and teachers’ refl ecti on improvement occurs.The presenter of this workshop is going to share some of her worries and some taken acti ons to engage the pedagogical team in an ongoing process of self-refl ecti on. The examples that will be discussed will focus on issues like increasing student’s talking ti me; promoti ng group and collaborati ve work; and especially on how to work with the three phases of a task in class.

This workshop focuses on the relati onship between the OP and the Spanish teacher. In this session, we will discuss the OP’s role in the Spanish teacher development process, how the OP can parti cipate acti vely in this process and contribute for the teacher’s refl exive development. Many arti cles, such as Vieira- Abrahão (2001) and Almeida Filho (1997) discuss and reinforce the relevance of foreign language teacher’s in-service development. Therewith, the aim is to promote an improvement to the classes off ered and, consequently, to empower the student’s sati sfacti on and permanence in the school.

Yázigi classrooms have been permeated by technology ever since. With the upcoming of internet, new features took place as the e-learning. Currently, m-learning and more recently, ubiquitous learning (u-learning) involves learning in an environment where “all students have access to a variety of digital devices and services, including computers connected to the Internet and mobile computi ng devices, whenever and wherever they need them” (van’t Hooft , Swan, Cook, & Lin, 2007, p. 6). So, the purpose of acquiring the use of the latest technology is not to simple “novate”, i.e, replace, but to “innovate”, i.e. to introduce changes and new ideas. As a result, new roles for the teachers, students, and learning are being designed in order to develop and maintain lifelong learning. Having this context as background, this workshop aims at presenti ng and working on the concepts menti oned, as well as providing the Pedagogical Coordinators some refl ecti on about trendy issues regarding the-not-future-anymore educati on compared to the results of a research conducted among Yázigi teachers on how they are dealing with the present technology inside their classrooms. Moreover, core educati onal aspects have to be taken into considerati on so that the main goal of educati on in post-modern ti mes is preserved, therefore through updated means.

“Educati on is not only a business, but it is the most expansive business in the nati on. No other business touches and changes the lives of almost everyone at one ti me or another” (CAIN, 2007). Therefore, being an academic coordinator is dealing with pedagogical and business aspects at the same ti me, things

such as avoiding drop-outs, making sure students/customers are sati sfi ed and remain loyal to the school, etc. This workshop aims at discussing the role of the academic coordinator as the one responsible for the pedagogical quality within Yázigi principles and also for leading a group of people and coordinati ng processes that are intrinsically related to the educati on business. We will debate acti ons that are pedagogically correct and have a good deal of marketi ng, which may help improve results related to drop-outs, re-enrollment, customers’ loyalty, and much more.

In this workshop, we will start by presenti ng the main moments of technological evoluti on and how each phase refl ects/aff ects the relati onship man-machine, based on the studies by L. Santaella (1997, 2008) and A. Lemos (2003). When dealing with the relati onship technology and society, important concepts, such as hybridizati on and irreversibility (P. Levy, 1999), will also be presented and discussed. Then, through several group acti viti es, parti cipants will be asked to refl ect on how the last technological evoluti on, more humane in its very own nature, can have impact on the teaching/learning philosophy (view of educati on and view of language) embraced by the Yázigi organizati on.

Can HD TVs turn a bad movie into a masterpiece? So, why do you think eBooks, eBoards or any other piece of technology will save a bad lesson? This workshop will discuss how new technologies, by themselves, can’t change the scenario of poorly planned classes, underprepared teachers and outdated methodologies, but how these technologies can be extremely powerful tools when combined with new educati on concepts and practi ces. We will play with new technologies, but will also see that Innovati on in Educati on does not depend on gadgets, but on teachers that are able to rethink their role in the 21st century classroom.

The objecti ve of this workshop is to present an alternati ve technique for carrying out interviews (the STAR - situati on, task, acti on and result - model) during the teacher selecti on process. By using the STAR technique, Academic Coordinators will be able to analyze whether job applicants have the competences needed to be a Yázigi teacher, based on past behaviour. This approach has been broadly described in the HR literature (PONTES, SERRANO, 2005; CARVALHO, PASSOS, SARAIVA, 2008; BANOV, 2011; among others) and has been applied by many global companies to identi fy talented professionals.

How can teachers get more moti vated, be more challenged and improve their teaching techniques altogether? This workshop presents and discusses some ideas and tools to opti mize our Inservice Program. The presenters will show some acti ons based on leadership (Mario Sérgio Cortella, Eugênio Mussak and Brian Tracy) and the Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, which were taken at Yázigi Taubaté and how such acti ons have infl uenced the school’s results. Alongside with the ideas and tools, some good school results will be presented and the infl uence of the acti ons taken will be discussed. What accounted for such results? Are our teachers being well taken care of? We will fi nd out how to promote more follow-up to our teachers’ performance, provide enhanced feedback and incenti ves and have more effi cient and producti ve learning results with the lessons taught at our school.

Vivemos e convivemos numa sociedade em rede, cada vez mais e-habitada por uma geração que pensam com, e a parti r do uso de diferentes tecnologias digitais em rede, o que provoca mudanças na forma como se comunicam, interagem, se relacionam, aprendem, se divertem, enfi m, na forma como vivem e convivem. Nesses territórios digitais, a noção de pertencimento tem se transformado, pois não se trata mais de espaços contí nuos e contí guos, e

nem de territórios geográficos, mas sim de nomadismos e transnacionalidades, de permeabilidade, de apagamento das bordas e da coexistência de diferentes mundos e-habitados, cujas relações dos que os “e-habitam” constituem-se a partir de um hibridismo de pensamentos, de ideias, de idiomas, de saberes e de práticas, tecidos em diferentes redes de conversação online.Dessa forma, o objetivo dessa palestra consiste em problematizar, em provocar a reflexão e a discussão sobre quem é o novo sujeito da aprendizagem e como a interação com diferentes TD tem modificado a forma de pensar, de aprender e de representar o mundo? O que são “Personal Learning Environment” (PLE) e de que forma se vinculam a tecnologia-conceito “Espaços de Convivência Digitais Virtuais” (ECODI), na perspectiva da multimodalidade e da aprendizagem colaborativa e cooperativa? Como os PLE e ECODI podem nos ajudam a pensar os processos de ensino e de aprendizagem de uma língua estrangeira na atualidade?É importante considerar que tablets, smarthpones, redes sociais, agentes comunicativos inteligentes, metaversos, MDV3D, social games, MMORPG, realidade aumentada, ... são novidades que apresentam possibilidades que nos desafiam no âmbito dos processos de ensino e de aprendizagem, mas como essas tecnologias estão se constituindo? Enquanto simples novidade ou como inovação? Quais são as potencialidades e limites percebidos? Estamos avançando na construção de metodologias, práticas e processos de mediação pedagógica inovadoras, que considerem a natureza desses meios, as especificidades da área do conhecimento, as características do público a que se destina, de forma que sejam significativas para os sujeitos desse tempo histórico e social?

students. “Why do adult learners quit school more oft en than children or adolescents? What can we do to change this number and make adults stay longer in the school?” The answer might be the ORIENTATION SESSION, a way to give adult and young adult learners individualized att enti on, listen to their needs, discuss about their learning process, and help them plan their study ti me.

This work is aimed at presenting results of improvements concerning Yazigi schools team work referring to relationships in the workplace. Although communication has been enhanced through net sharing, humanization thru person-to-person contact is still crucial to promote social development. So, some events were developed in the two Yázigi schools as to make the whole staff more integrated including teachers, academic coordinators and other employees. After some ideas carried out by the academic coordinators and supported by the school principal,teachers started to have a better interaction with one another and other employees. Testimonials presented feelings of comfort, low anxiety and motivation and such positive experience is truly essential in our network.

This communication will present a case study on how a very inauspicious situation (a new team of teachers, with no Yázigi or teaching background) ended up quite well due to a series of particular practices, such as a close collaborative relationship between academic coordinator and teachers, the frequency and particular aspects of pedagogical meetings, etc.; which took into account essential tools hardly objectively measured: the teacher’s perception and insight on students’ behavior, motivation, and learning– such practice resulted in a 50% dropout decrease compared to the previous semester, and in an 89% reenrollment intention (according to recent survey this semester).
