Abstract

PICANCO, Deise Cristina de Lima. Foreign language in the mirror’s land: a reflection about the methodological limbo. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2002, n.20, pp.165-182. ISSN 0104-4060.

The methodological proposal for foreign language teaching, of the last decades has created a kind of methodological limbo, in other words, a methodology that is not-precisely in its theory and confuse in its practice. This situation resulted for an option by a socio-interactionist reference in a more general definition of language and teaching conception. In this way, here there is a proposal for a discussion about theoretical and methodological problems in FL teaching. This reflection starts with a reflection about utterance, that is particularly based on a wider language conception inspired on theoretical formulations of Bakhtin’s Circle thinkers.

Keywords : Language Teaching; Bakhtin Circle; Curricula Parameters for FL; Applied Linguistic for FL Teaching.
