Pandemic Language Teaching: insights from Brazilian and international teachers on the pivot to emergency remote instruction

(Sevilla-Pavon, A.; Finardi, K. R.)



ABSTRACT



This article reflects on the experiences of language teachers from Brazil, Spain, France, Cyprus, Costa Rica and Taiwan during the pivot to emergency remote/online instruction during the 2020 pandemic. The research question motivating the study was what language teachers' perceptions regarding online teaching during the pandemic were. Data were analyzed qualitatively, contrasting data from a questionnaire shared in an asynchronous online form with data from focus group interviews carried out via videoconferencing. The analysis of the questionnaire data showed that the vast majority of respondents used different digital technologies to teach online, both synchronously and asynchronously, but felt unprepared to work in this modality, mostly because of lack of institutional support and training. The analysis of the focus group interviews suggested that most teachers expressed concerns as to the limitations of online teaching for interaction and exams. In addition, some teachers displayed negative attitudes towards online teaching due to the lack of preparation and institutional support. This was aggravated by political implications of migrating to online education that could result in precariousness of the teacher profession. The positive aspects highlighted were the possibility of developing more self-directed and autonomous learning, as well as experimenting with different technologies and approaches. Overall, the analysis of the data suggests that, after the pandemic and with due preparation and support, some of the digital technologies and approaches experimented with will be incorporated into pedagogical practices in blended approaches, which represent a real trend and possibility for language teaching in the post-pandemic context.

To answer question, read the text below.


The Language of Performance

    Well, the word “performative” is generally meant as an insult. It’s meant to trivialize and indicate that someone is play-acting or “faking it.” It suggests that someone is only doing something to be seen doing it, and not because it represents a sincere interest or enjoyment.


    This is one of those situations in which metaphors are overextended, and language distorts rather than describes natural human behavior. It is normal for our species for men and women to “perform” acts to impress both our own sex and the opposite sex. Males and females have different sex “roles,” and we “perform” acts to satisfy those roles.


    The language seems to “portray” us as “actors performing roles” and implies that we are all essentially “lying” or “faking.” This is the kind of wordcel wordtrap that lends itself to Marxist gender theory ideology and postmodernist thinking.


    “Nothing is real, everything is fake. Everything is a performance.”


    That’s a frame, but it isn’t the whole picture.


    Men are primates. We imitate each other. Monkey see, monkey do. And yes, we do things to try to impress each other. You can frame that in a way that seems trivial or superficial, but it is also foundational to human nature and social hierarchy.

Brazil floods: 'I saw people trapped in their

homes crying for help'




Heavy rains in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais have caused severe flooding and landslides, leaving at least 32 people dead. The cities most affected are Juiz de Fora and Ubá.


In Juiz de Fora, twelve homes were swept away by a mudslide. In Ubá, a river burst its banks and flooded several streets. Rescue teams have been searching for at least 38 people who remain missing, while shelters have been set up for thousands of residents who were left homeless.


Meteorologists reported that the amount of rain that fell in the region during the month was already double the average normally expected for February, and additional rainfall was forecast for the following days.


A resident of Ubá, Lucas Gandra, told BBC Brasil that he received the first flood warning early on Tuesday, when a friend called to inform him that the local river was about to overflow. According to him, the situation worsened very quickly.


“At 00:07 the water was overflowing and by 00:20 it was already causing enormous damage. The water rose very quickly,” he said.


The city, located about 300 kilometers north of Rio de Janeiro, had previously experienced flooding in 2019 and 2020, but residents reported that the current disaster was far more destructive.


Lucas Gandra also described dramatic scenes during the flooding, recalling that many residents were trapped in their homes and calling for help.


More than 200 people were rescued by emergency teams, although some of those who died had reportedly attempted to help others during the disaster. Another resident of Ubá, Carolina Magalhães, described the situation as “horrific.” She reported seeing floodwaters carrying debris through the streets, including household items, motorcycles, and gas cylinders.

Text II


    They were nearly born on a bus, Estha and Rahel. The car in which Babà, their father, was taking Ammu, their mother, to hospital in Shillong to have them, broke down on the winding teaestate road in Assam. They abandoned the car and flagged down a crowded State Transport bus. With the queer compassion of the very poor for the comparatively well off, or perhaps only because they saw how hugely pregnant Ammu was, seated passengers made room for the couple, and for the rest of the journey Estha and Rahel’s father had to hold their mother’s stomach (with them in it) to prevent it from wobbling. That was before they were divorced and Ammu came back to live in Kerala. 

    According to Estha, if they’d been born on the bus, they’d have got free bus rides for the rest of their lives. It wasn’t clear where he’d got this information from, or how he knew these things, but for years the twins harbored a faint resentment against their parents for having diddled them out of a lifetime of free bus rides.

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.
