ENSINO DE LÍNGUAS BASEADO EM EVIDÊNCIAS: A INTERSECÇÃO ENTRE LINFE, ANÁLISE DE NECESSIDADES E LINGUÍSTICA DE CORPUS
Keywords:
Languages for Specific Purposes, Corpus Linguistics, Needs AnalysisAbstract
This article addresses the development of Language for Specific Purposes (LinFE) teaching, focusing on the Brazilian context and the use of Corpus Linguistics (CL) as a methodological resource. The evolution of LinFE teaching dates back to Antiquity, consolidating itself in the 20th century with the systematization of English for Specific Purposes (IFE). In Brazil, the National Instrumental English Project (1977), led by Maria Celani, stood out, which promoted teaching based on the real needs of learners. The article also discusses the main myths created around LinFE teaching and highlights the importance of needs analysis as a basis for creating courses aligned with academic and professional contexts. Corpus Linguistics is presented as an effective tool for developing authentic materials and directing relevant content, promoting student autonomy and a more realistic and grounded teaching. It is concluded that the integration between LinFE and CL favors teaching that is more adjusted to the contemporary demands of specialized communication.
