Read the abstract below and then answer the question that follows.

 

The paper reflects on the role of technology in English language teaching (ELT) methodologies and on the impact of globalization and internationalization in education in general and in ELT in particular. The study is based on the assumption that access to information and technology is necessary to build social capital (WARSCHAUER, 2003) and that this access requires some English knowledge and digital literacy (FINARDI; PREBIANCA; MOMM, 2013). Departing from a bibliographic review on the use of ELT methodologies and the role of technologies in these methodologies, the study proposes that both the resistance to and the uncritical use of technologies and methodologies may bring negative consequences to the development of English language proficiency and social development in Brazil. The study concludes that in the post-method (BROWN, 2002; KUMARAVADIVELU, 2003) and information era (LEVY, 1999) technologies have a relevant and crucial role that should be critically considered in ELT methodologies. The study also suggests that the informed use of technologies and methodologies, allied with the teaching of English as an international language are essential to leverage the development and the internationalization of education in Brazil in a critical way in relation to the effects of globalization.

Comentário do professor

O resumo indica que as tecnologias têm um papel relevante e crucial no ensino de inglês e que devem ser abordadas criticamente. A expressão do texto destaca a necessidade de considerar o uso tecnológico de forma reflexiva dentro das metodologias de ELT.

Abordar criticamente significa não rejeitar a tecnologia nem adotá‑la de modo acrítico. Implica avaliar seu potencial pedagógico, a adequação aos objetivos de aprendizagem, a formação docente, o acesso dos alunos e a promoção da alfabetização digital, para garantir escolhas realmente informadas.

O artigo alerta que tanto a resistência quanto o uso não crítico podem trazer consequências negativas à proficiência e ao desenvolvimento social. Por isso, a integração tecnológica requer postura reflexiva e planejamento didático.
