In the excerpt which follows, the teacher is describing activities he/she can conduct with his/her students. Read it to answer question.
Describing pictures
One simple activity that we can do with our students is to ask them to look for a photo that they enjoy, in their Photo Gallery and describe it to their speaking partner (who is in the photo, where it was taken, when it was taken, etc.). This activity generates a lot of speaking and it can even work in a lowresource class. Students can also use pictures to talk to their partners about what they did the previous weekend, in summer, etc.
Taking pictures
We can encourage our learners to take photos of menus, street signs, advertisements or posters in English and read them carefully. Students can also try to spot spelling errors or incorrect use of apostrophe (‘s).
Recording conversations/words
The voice recorder is now a substitute for the portable cassette recorder. An idea for a simple activity that we can do is get the students record themselves speaking, whether it is for short dialogues with their partners or words. Students can then listen to themselves and become more aware of their mistakes.
Using QR codes for reading activities
QR codes are becoming increasingly popular. What a QR code does is bring up a website link that it is connected to or a text for students to read. In order to use QR codes, the phone needs to have a QR code reader and a camera. The teacher can simply display the QR code in the classroom and the learners can scan it and be directed to the text or grammar exercise. Another way to use QR codes is to hide pieces of paper with QR codes in the school and have students search for them, scan them and read the text they are directed to.

One of the objectives of the project, Re-imagining Multilingualisms, was to reimagine. The term ‘reimagining’ is something extremely important because imagining and being creative are not things we are used to doing in the academy, not in Linguistics at least! We believe that we are empiricists, that we only look at facts and we make conclusions. We are pseudo-scientists. We make conclusions about what we observe, and we think that what we observe has got nothing to do with what we imagine. On the contrary, it has everything to do with what we imagine. So, when we analyse things ideologically, what is ideology? It’s exactly an imagination which has been naturalised and institutionalised. And so, whenever we look at the world, we’re looking at it from the eyes of a particular learned knowledge, an ideology. When we are asked to be able to imagine things, it’s a point of being able to break out of our established learning and looking for something new. Imagining is extremely important in the learning process. If it doesn’t happen, there is no learning. This is one of the important things of Freirean pedagogy. For example, he made the distinction between what he called ‘banking pedagogies’ or ‘transmission pedagogies’ where there’s just reproduction and repetition, and ‘transformative pedagogies’, what he called ‘liberatory pedagogies’, which is where creativity is involved, where you break the simple linearity of repetition and transmission. So how does this work? How do you promote creativity? It is by breaking what previously seemed natural and normal.

Burgeoning online environments offer completely new opportunities for ethnographic and other forms of qualitative research. Yet there are no clear standards for how we study online texts from an ethnographic perspective. In this article, we identify barriers to the application of traditional qualitative methods online, using the example of a systematic thematic analysis of weight-loss blogs. These barriers include the influence of the technology structuring online content, the fluid nature of online texts such as blogs and the highly connected and public nature of online identities, which may span multiple social media platforms. We discuss some potential approaches to addressing these challenges as preliminary steps toward developing a tool kit suited to ethical, high-quality online modes of ethnographic research.

Last week, when an English teacher got into her High School class, one of her students was showing the poem above to her friends. She said she had found it online and was curious about it because its structure was different from the ones she was used to reading. The teacher was pleased to hear that, and thought this would be an excellent opportunity to introduce her class into this non-canonical literature. She started presenting the author, Rupi Kaur, a contemporary Indian poet. Then, she read it aloud and asked them to work in pairs to figure out its main idea.

Considering the students’ ages, their school level and their critical thinking ability, the teacher anticipated they should be able to understand that

Q4151664 Inglês
Discussions around teaching in a culturally sustaining manner in the English language arts classroom, specifically when teaching literary analysis, often address the need to incorporate multicultural literature so that students are exposed to stories told from diverse perspectives. However, the reality in many schools is that teachers do not have ownership over their curriculum in a way that allows them to choose which texts they should read and study with students. In this context, culturally sustaining teaching presents a difficult challenge. In this literature review, the author presents classroom strategies that apply a critical literacy lens to analysis of canonical literature as a way to create a place for culturally sustaining teaching within a prescribed curriculum.

The Road Not Taken

By Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

The final stanza introduces a future perspective from which the speaker imagines revisiting the memory of this decision. The tone adopted in this reflection contributes significantly to the poem's interpretative complexity. In this context, the expression "with a sigh" most likely indicates:
