“O café do intervalo e a teoria do quase”


   No intervalo da manhã, quando o corredor vira uma avenida de passos apressados e promessas de “já volto”, eu caminho até a cantina como quem vai cumprir um ritual civil. Não é fome: é aquela necessidade de um gole quente para reorganizar o pensamento, como se a cafeína soubesse arquivar dúvidas. A placa anuncia “Café passado na hora”, e eu me pego sorrindo para a expressão: como se existisse a hora oficial do café, com carimbo e assinatura.

   A fila começa curta e, por isso mesmo, suspeita. O primeiro obstáculo é o entusiasmo alheio. Uma colega me cumprimenta com um “rapidinho, só uma pergunta”, e essa frase, aprendi, tem o mesmo estatuto do “sem querer” antes de um comentário bem intencional. Eu respondo com um “claro”, que na língua da sobrevivência acadêmica significa: claro que não há escolha. Ela quer saber se eu “só poderia dar uma olhadinha” em um formulário, “bem simples”. Simples, aqui, é um adjetivo mágico: não descreve o objeto; descreve a tentativa de reduzir o tempo do outro.

   Enquanto finjo analisar campos e siglas, a fila cresce atrás de nós como argumento que se encorpa. Quando enfim chego ao balcão, o atendente aponta para um aviso escrito à mão: “PIX fora do ar”. A frase tem a concisão de um decreto e, ao mesmo tempo, a delicadeza de um pedido de desculpas. Procuro moedas, encontro um cartão que “agora não passa”, e sinto a vergonha minúscula de quem foi desmentida pelo próprio bolso. “É só reiniciar a maquininha”, diz alguém, como se reiniciar fosse sinônimo de resolver.

   Volto dois passos, tento sinal, tento fé. Na tela do celular, o círculo de carregamento gira com uma serenidade provocativa. Penso na teoria do quase: quase é a região onde a gente vive por prática, não por vocação. Quase respondi, quase terminei, quase publiquei, quase fui ao médico, quase dormi cedo. Quase é um jeito de manter a esperança em pé sem precisar encostar a realidade na parede. E, no intervalo, quase tem rosto: o “já”, o “só”, o “bem”, o “assim que der”.

   Finalmente pago em dinheiro emprestado — “me devolve depois, quando puder, sem pressa” — e essa generosidade traz embutida uma cobrança leve, do tipo que não pesa hoje, mas cobra amanhã. O café vem em copo de papel, tampado, e o vapor foge pela fresta como fofoca que não aguenta segredo. Dou o primeiro gole e percebo que não está tão quente quanto prometia a placa. Está morno, aquela temperatura neutra que não consola nem ofende.

   No caminho de volta, um aluno me alcança: “Prof, é rapidinho”. E eu, já com o café na mão e o intervalo no fim, ouço a frase como quem ouve o próprio nome dito errado. Ele abre o celular e me mostra uma mensagem: “Desculpa incomodar, mas eu quase desisti da disciplina”. Quase, outra vez.

   Eu me lembro de quantas vezes usei “quase” para suavizar pedidos: quase poderia enviar hoje? quase dá para remarcar? Como se a palavra amortecesse o impacto do desejo. Mas, ali, ela era um pedido de ajuda sem dramatização, um ponto de exclamação sussurrado bem mesmo.

   Só que, agora, o quase não adia; avisa. Eu paro. O corredor continua correndo. E, pela primeira vez na manhã, o café serve: não para acelerar, mas para ficar.

Structural and pedagogical problems hinder the use of technology


    Three out of four teachers in Brazil show support for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) as a teaching tool. They also say that the technology has impacted education both positively, with faster access to information, and negatively, as students lose their focus.

    The data can be found in an unprecedented survey by Semesp Institute, an organization that represents higher education providers. The study was carried out between March 18 and 31 with 444 public and private school teachers from kindergarten to high school located in all regions of Brazil.

    In the study, 74.8 percent of respondents partially or totally agree with the use of artificial intelligence in teaching. Despite this, just over a third (39.2%) of them said they always use it as a teaching tool.

    Even though educators believe it is important to use AI, they also report structural and pedagogical problems that prevent or hinder its employment. Further issues were reported in connection with its excessive use, especially by pupils. Among these problems are the lack of internet at school, the lack of training for teachers and also greater difficulty in holding students’ attention.

    “I sense students have become more dependent on research tools and immediate answers and have a hard time having resilience and patience and acting as problem solvers,” an anonymous teacher who took part in the survey said.

    Another one said: “Technology has advanced, but sometimes access to it at school is not satisfactory. Poor internet connection. The computer lab is a restricted space. No Microsoft Office in the mobile lab. The use of cell phones is impractical as students have no internet. Now, even the internet is restricted to teachers.”

    Just under half of the teachers (45.7%) declared that both teachers and students have access to computers and the internet where they teach. Another seven percent answered there is still no access to technology in their schools. 

    Teachers also report that technology has made students lose their focus. “The school can’t keep up with the use of new technologies at the speed that the students can, which leads to a mismatch between the lesson taught and the lesson that the students want. The unbridled use of social media and the high level of exposure of young people to these networks have undermined teachers’ contact with students,” one of the teachers stated.

    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.

Multiliteracy: the new basic skill for the 21st century classroom


    We increasingly engage with texts that draw meaning beyond written words from other sources. Images, sound, video clips and gestures (alone and in combination) all play central roles in how we communicate and interpret content.

    This multimedia approach is especially evident in online platforms and social media, where a single piece of content may blend written language with videos, graphics, photos and other visual elements. This change requires us to rethink what we mean by literacy.

    Nearly 30 years ago, a group of scholars, the New London Group, recognised the need for a broader understanding of literacy after observing a growing gap between the literacy needs students faced outside of school and the print-based practices still dominant in classrooms.

    They introduced a concept of multiliteracies which acknowledges that we now engage with texts that use multiple modes of communication. We engage with these texts in different media environments, each with their own practices and strategies.

    The concept incorporates the literacy skills needed to acquire, interpret, produce and evaluate the multimodal and multimedia texts we encounter today.

    For literacy education, this shift means updating classroom aims, content and activities. The group developed a pedagogical framework to help schools respond to the growing inequalities and rapid changes in technology and the textual landscape.

    The process starts with examining pupils’ everyday literacy practices and experiences together. Then these practices are approached analytically by introducing a metalanguage for discussing the resources they use to create meaning. Students can use this metalanguage to critically evaluate their literacy practices which helps them understand how different modes of communication work and how to use them effectively.

    The pedagogy of multiliteracies also emphasises the design and production of multimodal texts and collaborative learning in linguistically and culturally diverse groups, rather than individual reading activities. […]

    Multiliteracies are already included in many European curricula, and the European framework for key competencies for lifelong learning defines literacy in a way that aligns with the concept of multiliteracies. These policy documents and guidelines provide a foundation for integrating multiliteracies into literacy education.

    Yet, research shows that there is still work to be done to incorporate teaching multimodal literacy practices into mainstream literacy education. While many teachers do include multimodal texts in their classroom activities, tensions between multimodal and traditional practices still exist.

Multiliteracy: the new basic skill for the 21st century classroom


    We increasingly engage with texts that draw meaning beyond written words from other sources. Images, sound, video clips and gestures (alone and in combination) all play central roles in how we communicate and interpret content.

    This multimedia approach is especially evident in online platforms and social media, where a single piece of content may blend written language with videos, graphics, photos and other visual elements. This change requires us to rethink what we mean by literacy.

    Nearly 30 years ago, a group of scholars, the New London Group, recognised the need for a broader understanding of literacy after observing a growing gap between the literacy needs students faced outside of school and the print-based practices still dominant in classrooms.

    They introduced a concept of multiliteracies which acknowledges that we now engage with texts that use multiple modes of communication. We engage with these texts in different media environments, each with their own practices and strategies.

    The concept incorporates the literacy skills needed to acquire, interpret, produce and evaluate the multimodal and multimedia texts we encounter today.

    For literacy education, this shift means updating classroom aims, content and activities. The group developed a pedagogical framework to help schools respond to the growing inequalities and rapid changes in technology and the textual landscape.

    The process starts with examining pupils’ everyday literacy practices and experiences together. Then these practices are approached analytically by introducing a metalanguage for discussing the resources they use to create meaning. Students can use this metalanguage to critically evaluate their literacy practices which helps them understand how different modes of communication work and how to use them effectively.

    The pedagogy of multiliteracies also emphasises the design and production of multimodal texts and collaborative learning in linguistically and culturally diverse groups, rather than individual reading activities. […]

    Multiliteracies are already included in many European curricula, and the European framework for key competencies for lifelong learning defines literacy in a way that aligns with the concept of multiliteracies. These policy documents and guidelines provide a foundation for integrating multiliteracies into literacy education.

    Yet, research shows that there is still work to be done to incorporate teaching multimodal literacy practices into mainstream literacy education. While many teachers do include multimodal texts in their classroom activities, tensions between multimodal and traditional practices still exist.

    Studies point out the huge challenges teachers face when they adapt their teaching to the redefined literacies, and there are concerns about teachers’ preparedness to teach multiliteracies. They need support with training and appropriate materials. Teacher educators and policy makers must ensure that teachers have substantial and concrete support.
