Collaborative Language Learning in Teletandem: A Resource for Pre-Service Teacher Education (Aprendizaje de lenguas colaborativo en Teletándem: un recurso para la educación de profesores en formación inicial)
Salomão, Ana Cristina Biondo
PROFILE: Issues in Teachers' Professional Development, v13 n1 p139-156 Apr 2011
This article presents some of the results of a qualitative research project about the influences of the pedagogic strategies used by a mediator (graduate student in applied linguistics) in the supervision process of a Teletandem partner (undergraduate student in languages) on her pedagogical practice. It was done within the project "Teletandem Brazil: foreign language for all". Based on the reflective teaching paradigm and collaborative language learning, with special emphasis on tandem learning, we analyzed the contributions of the collaborative relationship established between the graduate student and the student-teacher in her first teaching experience. The results bring about implications for the field of language teacher education in a perspective of education within practice, evidencing the experience of collaborative learning in teletandem as an opportunity for reflective teacher education of pre-service teachers.
