A EXPERIÊNCIA DO CLAP ESPANHOL: LÍNGUA, CULTURA E APRENDIZAGEM INTERACIONAL

Abstract

The challenges of formatting and teaching a language course, in this case Spanish, for students at a beginner's level were largely supplanted, throughout Clap, by a teaching methodology marked by the incorporation of news material, culture of Hispanic American countries, interaction and the use of social networks as an additional communicative space. We realized that the exhaustion of our student-teachers, also as a result of their own remote classes in the context of the pandemic, demanded an approach to language that mixed the didactic with the playful, the learning of grammatical aspects with significant contributions from the Latin American culture and context. This plural approach is widely supported by Álvares Méndez (2001), Crystal (2005) and Chiappini (1997), who propose creative work with language, dialogically approaching it with literature, for example.
