Inglês como Meio de Instrução, formação de professores, desenvolvimento do currículo, educação superior no Brasil, internacionalizaçãoResumo
As atividades de pesquisa em Inglês como Meio de Instrução (English as a Medium of Instruction–EMI) têm crescido nas últimas duas décadas; não obstante, a formação inicial e contínua de professores de EMI tem recebido pouca atenção até agora—uma situação que é ainda mais evidente no contexto da educação superior no Brasil. Respondendo a essa lacuna, com uma contribuição orientada à prática, este artigo apresenta algumas das lições mais importantes que emergiram ao pilotar um curso de treinamento para EMI em uma universidade privada no sul do Brasil. O artigo está organizado em cinco temas, ou ‘lições aprendidas,’ que correspondem a novas áreas de conhecimento, resultadas da experiência piloto. Essas lições se interrelacionam com algumas das questões mais urgentes encaradas por pesquisadores, professores, e elaboradores de políticas vinculadas a EMI no contexto da educação superior. Ao alinhar áreas
práticas e teóricas, este artigo busca chamar atenção para a necessidade de mais investigações sobre a formação de professores em EMI—sobretudo no
contexto do Brasil.
