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
Which theoretical approach to language learning underlies this teacher’s decisions?
Considering this scenario and adopting a cultural approach, what would be the teacher’s first step?
After the students have repeated the dialogue several times, the teacher gives them a chance to adopt the role of Bill while she says Sally’s lines. Before the class actually says each line, the teacher models it. In effect, the class is experiencing a repetition drill where the students have to listen carefully and attempt to mimic the teacher’s model as accurately as possible.

TEXT 2
The teacher greets the class and distributes a handout. There is writing on both sides. On one side is a copy of a sports column from a recent newspaper. The reporter is discussing the last World Cup competition. The teacher asks the students to read it and then to underline the predictions the reporter makes about the next World Cup. He gives them these directions in the target language. Then, he and the students discuss which predictions the reporter feels more certain about and which predictions he feels less certain about.

The new High School English teacher has heard her colleagues use the following adjectives to characterize her students: noisy, challenging and disinterested. However, she knows that adolescence is a developmental stage influenced by biological, cognitive and affective factors and that necessary pedagogical adjustments are needed to meet the unique demands of this time. In any case, this reality poses a challenge for her, as she has the task of developing reading and writing skills in English. To meet these requirements, the teacher wishes to seek alternative assessment methods that encourage students to read and produce collaborative, critically reflective texts from which they can construct ideas and develop their argumentative and creative skills. She recognizes that her role should be that of a facilitator in the writing process.
TEXT 2
Due to the qualitative leap in intelligence during the adolescent stage of development, a more mechanical and traditional approach to teaching, learning and assessment that focuses solely on performance by the teacher and learning by the student, without encouraging genuine interaction between them, is more likely to lead to fatigue, discouragement and lack of engagement with the new language being learned. It also becomes clear that teaching based on an exclusionary methodology, ignoring the feelings and needs of these students and increasing their distance from the teacher, does not reach the world of adolescents. However, if they are guided by a meaningful approach to learning, encouraged to actively participate in the classroom and in decision-making processes, and feel that their thoughts and opinions are valued, the process of language learning, teaching and assessment can take a different direction that makes sense to them.

“Okonkwo never showed any emotion openly, unless it be the emotion of anger. To show affection was a sign of weakness; the only thing worth demonstrating was strength”.

After that, the teacher provided information about Nigeria during the period the novel was set, pointing out the consequences of colonialism on indigenous culture. The students had a moment to analyze the excerpt critically, consider the plot, and establish connections with the animation preview. At the end of the class, the teacher proposed a digital storytelling project, so students could use multimedia elements to quote the novel.
By incorporating the animation preview and the excerpt from Things Fall Apart to talk about emotions, the teacher

proposal for a teacher training model inspired by TPACK.
Educação em revista, v. 27, 2021 (adapted).
After a two-week workshop on TPACK, a High School teacher prepared a class to be taught in a computer lab in which he had to focus on a coursebook unit entitled Fashion & English, and on the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) skill EM13LP17, which covers the phenomenon of regional language variation in its pragmatic-discursive dimension and seeks to promote a students’ broader understanding of the living and dynamic nature of the English language.
Based on these informations, which of the following class ideas can he develop in order to meet the elements presented above?
ERVIN, J. Critically reading the canon: culturally sustaining approaches to a prescribed literary curriculum. Journal of adolescent & adult literacy, v. 65, n. 4, 2022 (adapted).

Due to the spread of English in the 21st century to countries where it is neither a first nor an official language, its use is evident in various contexts, as illustrated in the textbook pictures above. A teacher could use this material to

Based on the approach presented in the case study, we can state that
Paulo: Fernanda, look how I can speak in English: We are Carnaval / We are, we are folia / We are, we are the world of Carnaval / We are Bahia.
Fernanda: That’s not English, it does not make sense. Nobody would say: We are Carnival. An American would say: I like Carnival or I don’t like Carnival.
Paulo: Well, I am Brazilian and my English is Brazilian. I speak Brazilian English, my friend!
Considering this scenario, the English teacher decided to widen the debate and involve the rest of the class. She said that language is more than just a means of verbal communication: it is a social construct shaped by cultural, historical and social context. She emphasized that language reflects the norms, values and identities of a language community, which is constituted through the interactions between its members. In addition to grammatical skills, language also involves the interpretation and production of meaning in different social and cultural contexts and is subject to change both during its use and in its influence on us. Finally, echoing Leffa (2002), the teacher also said that, when learning a new language, we negotiate the code without denying who we are, because a Brazilian who speaks English is not an American, a British or an Australian who speaks English: s/he is a Brazilian who speaks English. She concluded by saying that the language you learn is not foreign; it is not from others — it can also belong to you and be part of your identity.
That situation shows that the teacher recognized the relationship between language and identity as
Considering this scenario, to foster an inclusive learning environment, the teacher should address the linguistic diversity and geopolitical aspects of English by

In a given school, each year, students of the third year of High School take a reading test which includes items taken from past Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) tests. These scores are not considered to their academic records. A group of English teachers meet together to review students’ performance on the test, and in particular, look at the facility (proportion correct) for different kinds of English reading items on the test. Where item facilities are lower than expected, they look at how the instruction on those which required reading skills was planned and delivered and they look at ways in which the instruction can be strengthened in the following year.
Considering the above scenario, the teacher’s decision is correctly described as assessment for learning, since
