TECHNOLOGICAL INTEGRATION IN LANGUAGES AND CONTEMPORARY EDUCATION IN A COMPLEX PERSPECTIVE
Technological integration, language teaching, basic education.
The relationship between language and technology is complex, in the sense that language itself is a biological and artefactual technology. There is a lot of physiology involved in the development of language, which has made it possible for humans to develop powerful devices for communication, from the alphabet to smartphones, language and technology are developed with the aim of building, storing and communicating knowledge and the product of social interaction between individuals. In this epistemological relationship, language teaching and teaching methods are intertwined and rely on language and communication technologies to overcome the limits of time and space, allowing, in an intersection environment, so virtual as the language itself, to make constructs of multidisciplinary knowledge. This project aims to investigate this relationship (language/technology), from the perspective of language teaching/learning in its natural, virtual and artifactual condition.
