Emotions inspire transformation: delving into EFL teachers’ emotions and professional identities


Emotions in education have attracted significant attention over the past few years, particularly in language teaching and learning. Emotions are not just fleeting states but also play a crucial role in classroom dynamics, influencing both student achievements and the quality of teaching. In particular, they are instrumental in influencing teachers’ professional identity, image, affective commitment level, and even classroom performance because the emotional experiences of teachers are deep, complex, and intertwined with their very professional identity. Teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) typically intensifies the emotional complexity. Subsequent research has extended beyond the understanding of emotions as solely psychological phenomena, and emotions are now also understood as sociocultural and political constructs. Viewed this way, teaching can be seen as emotional labor: an ongoing demand to demonstrate and regulate emotions in a way that aligns with professional norms but may lead to burnout and disillusionment if no coping mechanisms are provided. The challenges faced by teachers have led to an increased call for support to help them identify, process, and respond to emotions. This notion supports conscious emotional work, and as it is no longer viewed solely as remedial practice, it is a critical first step in developing coherent and resilient professional identities. The relationship between teacher emotions and identity is not a linear one; they are in constant and dynamic interplay with one another. As emotional experiences fluctuate, whether through student interactions, collegial relationships, or institutionalized approaches and policies, the teacher’s capacity to develop in a sense of professional identity also changes.

THE DIGITAL FRONTIER OF FIDELITY

The Nuances of Micro-cheating: Social Practice or Digital Paranoia ?  


In the contemporary landscape of interpersonal relationships, the ubiquity of social media has recalibrated the traditional parameters of faithfulness. The emergence of the term "micro-cheating" serves as a testament to this shift, encompassing a spectrum of subtle, digitally-mediated behaviors that, while devoid of physical consummation, suggest an emotional or erotic redirection. Such actions— ranging from the seemingly innocuous "double-tap" on an expartner’s archived photograph to the deliberate concealment of encrypted message threads—occupy a contentious "grey area" that challenges the binary definition of infidelity.  

From a socio-psychological perspective, micro-cheating is often interpreted not as an isolated act of betrayal, but as a symptom of the "validation economy." The digital architecture of modern platforms encourages a constant pursuit of external approval, where a notification can function as a dopamine-inducing ego boost. Consequently, the ambiguity of intent becomes the focal point of the debate: is the digital interaction a legitimate exercise of social autonomy or a covert erosion of the primary partnership’s exclusivity? Proponents of the concept argue that the "secrecy criterion" is the ultimate litmus test—if an interaction is intentionally shielded from a partner’s view, the threshold of trust has likely been breached.  

Conversely, skeptics caution against the pathologization of digital sociability. They argue that the expansion of the "cheating" umbrella to include minor online interactions fosters a climate of hyper-vigilance and domestic surveillance, potentially undermining the very foundation of trust it seeks to protect. By labeling these behaviors as "micro-infidelities," we risk imposing a panoptic gaze on our partners, where every "friend request" is scrutinized for subversive intent.

For the language educator, this phenomenon provides a rich semiotic field for classroom reflection. Aligning with the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), the study of such themes transcends mere grammatical decoding. It invites students to engage in "multiliteracies," analyzing how meaning is negotiated across digital platforms and how language (visual, verbal, and symbolic) shapes social ethics. In this sense, the English language is not merely a system of signs to be mastered, but a tool for critical agency in a globalized, hyper-connected world.

O caso genitivo (ou possessivo) em Língua Inglesa, frequentemente marcado pelo apóstrofo seguido de "s" ('s) ou apenas pelo apóstrofo (s'), indica posse ou relação entre substantivos. O uso correto dessa estrutura, em oposição ao uso da preposição "of", depende da natureza do possuidor (animado ou inanimado) e da forma plural do substantivo, sendo uma área comum de dificuldade para aprendizes.

Assim, analise as afirmativas a seguir:

I.A forma 's é primariamente usada para indicar posse com seres animados (pessoas e animais), como em "the student's book" (o livro do aluno) ou "the cat's tail" (o rabo do gato).
II.Embora a estrutura "of the..." (e.g., *the leg of the table*) seja a preferida para posse com objetos inanimados, o genitivo 's é comumente usado com expressões de tempo (e.g., *today's news*), medida ou em casos de personificação.
III.Para substantivos plurais regulares que já terminam em "s", a posse é indicada adicionando outro 's, formando "s's", como em "the students's pencils".

Brazil Uses AI Surveillance to Protect the Amazon Rainforest


Illegal logging, land grabbing, and deforestation have long posed challenges for enforcement agencies. Now, AI-powered surveillance systems are helping track these activities in real time, making forest protection more efficient and inclusive.

Using data from satellites, drones, and ground sensors, Brazil’s AI systems monitor changes in tree cover, land use, and movement patterns. When suspicious activity is detected—such as sudden clearing or unauthorized vehicle entry—alerts are sent to authorities for quick action. This reduces the time between detection and response.

Machine learning models analyze long-term data to identify patterns and predict where future illegal activities might occur. These insights help guide patrols and resource planning, improving safety for rangers and increasing the chances of stopping environmental crimes before they happen.

AI also helps distinguish between natural changes—like seasonal plant shifts—and human-caused damage. This reduces false reports and improves accuracy, saving time and effort. The technology supports transparency by providing visual evidence and data trails that can be used in legal investigations.

Several Brazilian tech startups and global partners are collaborating with the government to expand this effort. Their goal is to ensure that forest protection tools are accessible, sustainable, and respectful of indigenous communities who live in the Amazon.

By using AI responsibly, Brazil is showing how technology can serve both the planet and the people. This approach helps balance development with conservation, offering a model for other countries working to protect natural resources through innovation.

When the Classroom Goes Online

Over the past decade, the English classroom has changed more than it had in the previous hundred years. Mobile phones, social networks, artificial intelligence tools and online platforms are now part of students’ daily lives, and the teaching of English can no longer ignore this reality.

However, the use of technology in language education is not a matter of simply replacing books with screens. What truly matters is how these resources are used. A video, a message exchange, a podcast or an online discussion only become educational when they are integrated into meaningful learning situations, connected to students’ experiences and guided by clear pedagogical objectives.

Teachers who understand this shift no longer see themselves as the only source of knowledge. Instead, they act as mediators who help learners build meaning, develop autonomy and reflect on language use in real communicative contexts. This perspective is strongly supported by the principles of the Brazilian National Common Core (BNCC), which emphasizes the social and functional use of language.

In this sense, learning English is not just about memorizing structures or rules. It involves interpreting texts, negotiating meaning, expressing identity and participating in global conversations. When the classroom goes online, it does not lose its educational role — it expands it.
