| dc.description.abstract | Based on the sociocultural theory (VIGOTSKY, 1978; LANTOLF, 2000, 2010), and on the concept of collaborative dialogue (SWAIN, 2000), this work aims to discuss the relevance of the collaborative work to the teaching of English, and analyze and propose collaborative tasks and pedagogical activities for a high school English textbook of a first grade class in a private school in Farroupilha, Rio Grande do Sul. Based on the criteria for analyzing textbooks adapted from Dias (2009) and Ramos (2009), the textbook has been analyzed, and five modules have been selected to be adapted. The aim of the proposal is to stimulate the collaboration among the students, taking into account that language is the connecting thread, and instigate them to go beyond what is presented, and look at the world that is around them with another look, with a look from someone who does not accept ready definitions and prefers to make questions before agreeing or disagreeing with any concept. | en |
