Uma proposta de pedagogia para aprendizagem de línguas na perspectiva da complexidade
Palavras-chave:
sensibilidade ao contexto, complexidade, postmétodo, prática exploratória, dinâmica de grupo, relaçõesResumo
Com o foco na aula de língua, este artigo tenta formular os princípios potenciais que poderiam orientar, mas não prescrever, uma pedagogia com base na complexidadxe. Para isso, baseia-se tanto na literatura existente quanto na consideração do quadro teórico da complexidade para a pedagogia. O artigo começa com a consolidação das principais conclusões da metodologia adequada, da pedagogia pós-método, da prática exploratória, e das perspectivas ecológicas na aprendizagem relevantes para a perspectiva da complexidade. Em seguida, discute três conjuntos de características-chave dos sistemas dinâmicos complexos e sugere suas possíveis implicações para a pedagogia: multidimensionalidade e inter-relações, não-linearidade e causalidade descentralizada, e dinamismo e emergência.
