Remote Language Teaching in the Pandemic Context at the University of São Paulo, Brazil
Research-publishing.net
This chapter aims at presenting an overview of how our experiences as professors of Spanish, French, and English studies at the Department of Modern Languages (DML) of the University of São Paulo (USP) responded to the challenges put forward by the pedagogical and technological practices required since the outbreak of the COVID-19 health crisis, and the adoption of measures of social isolation in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Our pedagogical practices are shared through a description of the institutional context and our students' narratives. The chapter is divided into three main sections. The first one presents a brief overview of the institutional context. The second briefly problematizes the decision-making process to go fully online, and the challenges of the remote program. Section three explores the experiences of the three professors and their students by discussing pedagogical practices and students' feedback. In conclusion, the text discusses the lessons learned for future actions. [For the complete volume, "The World Universities' Response to COVID-19: Remote Online Language Teaching," see ED614006.]
