Making the Case: The Importance

of Listening in Language Learning


  It has taken many years to bring the language teaching profession around to realizing the importance of listening in second and foreign language learning. As observed by Rivers, long an advocate for listening comprehension, “Speaking does not of itself constitute communication unless what is said is comprehended by another person”. Teaching the comprehension of spoken speech is therefore of primary importance if the communication aim is to be reached” (1966, pp. 196, 204). The reasons for the nearly total neglect of listening are difficult to assess, but as Morley notes, “Perhaps an assumption that listening is a reflex, a little like breathing - listening seldom receives overt teaching attention in one’s native language - has masked the importance and complexity of listening with understanding in a non-native language” (1972, p. vii).

  In reality, listening is used far more than any other single language skill in normal daily life. On average, we can expect to listen twice as much as we speak, four times more than we read, and five times more than we write.

   Based on theoretical, experimental, and experiential knowledge, teachers and teacher educators have expressed their dissatisfaction with method in different ways. Studies clearly demonstrate that, even as the methodological band played on, practicing teachers have been marching to a different drum.

  In this sense, the post method condition is established as a timely response. It signifies interrelated attributes. First and foremost, it signifies a search for an alternative to method rather than an alternative method. While alternative methods are primarily products of top-down processes, alternatives to method are mainly products of bottom-up processes. In practical terms, this means that we need to refigure the relationship between the theorizer and the practitioner of language teaching. If the concept of method authorizes theorizers to centralize pedagogic decision-making, the postmethod condition enables practitioners to generate location-specific, classroom-oriented innovative strategies.

  Secondly, the postmethod condition signifies teacher autonomy. The conventional concept of method “overlooks the fund of experience and tacit knowledge about teaching which the teachers already have by virtue of their lives as students” (Freeman, 1991). The postmethod condition, however, recognizes the teachers’ potential to know not only how to teach but also how to act autonomously within the academic and administrative constraints imposed by institutions, curricula, and textbooks. It also promotes the ability of teachers to know how to develop a critical approach in order to self-observe, self-analyze, and self-evaluate their own teaching practice with a view to effecting desired changes.

•  Lessons begin with dialogues and anecdotes in modern conversational style.
•  Actions and pictures are used to make meanings clear.
•  Grammar is learned inductively.
•  The target culture is also taught inductively.

    “Depósito”: o modo como uma casa de repouso para idosos é chamada em um novo livro de ficção pretende denunciar as incongruências de nossa relação com a velhice e com os idosos ao nosso redor. Em Jasmins, publicado pela editora Maralto, Claudia Nina retrata a dura relação entre a cuidadora Yasmin e a idosa Wanda, num momento da história em que o fenômeno da longevidade interpela a nossa atenção à população idosa.

    “Embora não seja regra, alguns fatores tornam os idosos mais vulneráveis e dependentes de outras pessoas, seja para a realização de atividades básicas da vida diária e econômica ou emocionalmente, principalmente aqueles com déficits cognitivos ou limitações naturais do próprio envelhecimento”, explica a psicóloga Allana Moraes. “Por essas razões, lamentavelmente, o idoso também se encontra mais suscetível a ser vítima de violências nos mais variados âmbitos, seja familiar, institucional ou social”.

    De acordo com Allana, é o próprio ambiente familiar que tem se apresentado como o espaço de maior incidência de abandono e maus-tratos acometidos contra o idoso, com episódios de violência psicológica, física, moral e patrimonial perpetrados por filhos ou cônjuges. Diversos fatores desempenham um papel nesse tipo de cenário, entre os quais o que pode ser chamado de transmissão transgeracional da violência e do abandono.

    “O fato de os idosos se transformarem em vítimas igualmente se relaciona às raízes familiares, à violência ou abandono por eles perpetrados no passado, assim como terem apresentado comportamentos disruptivos, agressividade e atitudes provocativas em relação aos familiares”, explica a psicóloga. “Portanto, para analisar os motivos que levam um familiar a agir com violência em relação a um idoso, há que se levar em conta não só características dos idosos ou da família, já que se trata de um fenômeno multideterminado e que deve ser analisado em sua complexidade”.

    Entre os fatores em jogo, há também aquilo que o gerontólogo Robert N. Butler chamou já em 1969 de “ageísmo” ou “idadismo”, ou seja, a discriminação contra pessoas com base em sua idade, mais comumente direcionada a pessoas mais velhas. “Butler descreveu três aspectos deste tipo de preconceito: atitudes negativas em relação aos idosos, à velhice e ao processo de envelhecimento; práticas discriminatórias contra idosos; e práticas e políticas institucionais que perpetuam estereótipos e atitudes negativas sobre os idosos”, pontua Allana.

    A saúde dos vínculos afetivos entre o idoso e os seus cuidadores é um fator de proteção contra a violência muito significativo. Com a atenção à saúde mental dos profissionais cuidadores e com a proximidade da família, casas de repouso deixariam de ser “depósitos” e se tornariam pontos de apoio fundamentais em uma sociedade cada vez mais idosa.

Understanding bias in facial recognition technologies

   Over the past couple of years, the growing debate around automated facial recognition has reached a boiling point. As developers have continued to swiftly expand the scope of these kinds of technologies into an almost unbounded range of applications, an increasingly strident chorus of critical voices has sounded concerns about the injurious effects of the proliferation of such systems on impacted individuals and communities. Critics argue that the irresponsible design and use of facial detection and recognition technologies (FDRTs) threaten to violate civil liberties, infringe on basic human rights and further entrench structural racism and systemic marginalisation. In addition, they argue that the gradual creep of face surveillance infrastructures into every domain of lived experience may eventually eradicate the modern democratic forms of life that have long provided cherished means to individual flourishing, social solidarity and human self-creation.

   Defenders, by contrast, emphasise the gains in public safety, security and efficiency that digitally streamlined capacities for facial identification, identity verification and trait characterisation may bring. These proponents point to potential real-world benefits like the added security of facial recognition enhanced border control, the increased efficacy of missing children or criminal suspect searches that are driven by the application of brute force facial analysis to largescale databases and the many added conveniences of facial verification in the business of everyday life.

   Whatever side of the debate on which one lands, it would appear that FDRTs are here to stay.

Critics argue that the irresponsible design and use of facial detection and recognition technologies (FDRTs) threaten to violate civil liberties, infringe on basic human rights and further entrench structural racism and systemic marginalisation. In addition, they argue that the gradual creep of face surveillance infrastructures into every domain of lived experience may eventually eradicate the modern democratic forms of life that have long provided cherished means to individual flourishing, social solidarity and human self-creation.

   Defenders, by contrast, emphasise the gains in public safety, security and efficiency that digitally streamlined capacities for facial identification, identity verification and trait characterisation may bring. These proponents point to potential real-world benefits like the added security of facial recognition enhanced border control, the increased efficacy of missing children or criminal suspect searches that are driven by the application of brute force facial analysis to largescale databases and the many added conveniences of facial verification in the business of everyday life.

   Whatever side of the debate on which one lands, it would appear that FDRTs are here to stay.
