O OLHAR SOBRE O LIVRO DIDÁTICO NO CONTEXTO DOS MÉTODOS E ABORDAGENS DO ENSINO DE LÍNGUAS NO BRASIL

Abstract

This course conclusion work has as general objective to discuss the role of the textbook in the methods and approaches of the teaching of foreign languages. Therefore, the specific objectives are: to outline the methods and approaches in achronological perspective and to identify the importance of textbooks in this chronological order, in the context of methods and approaches. Thus, in this work, each of these "schools" was characterized, according to their principles and objectives, within their context of performance. We justify this discussion by the intention of contributing with some reflections that relate to the teaching-learning of a foreign language. The text will also deal with the relationship between the textbook and the teacher, and its importance in teaching, both in primary schools (elementary and medium levels) and in language schools. For this, with regard to methods and approaches, the work is based on authors such as: Oliveira (2014); Richards and Rodgers (2001), Leffa (1988, 2012, 2016) and Brown (2000). As for the question of the textbook, we have as foundation Paiva (2009); Jardilino and Horikawa (2010), Bonini and Yano (2018). The Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (2012; 2018) and the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (2018) were also centrally included in this monographic discussion.
