Apresentação
Caro(a) Acadêmico(a),
Com esta unidade didática muitos de vocês iniciarão os primeiros passos no estudo de uma língua es-
trangeira. Outros terão a oportunidade de revisar e consolidar o que já estudaram há algum tempo. Outros,
ainda, poderão não encontrar novidades no conteúdo a ser apresentado, pois já o dominam e terão, portanto,
tempo para refletir e auxiliar os demais colegas com os recursos utilizados nas aulas ministradas pelo pro-
fessor interativo. Seja como for, todos temos um objetivo comum: a comunicação em outro idioma. Como
temos um tempo delimitado (três anos apenas) para aprendermos a nos comunicar utilizando outra língua,
precisamos aproveitar o máximo possível todo o tempo disponível e todos os recursos interativos para alcan-
çarmos nosso objetivo comum. Espero que as dicas apresentadas durante o curso os auxiliem a se tornarem
alunos autônomos, interessados e estratégicos, e que tornem nosso tempo juntos, além de produtivo, agra-
dável e prazeroso.
Cordialmente,

LABORATÓRIO DE PRÁTICAS
INTEGRADAS
Prezado(a) Acadêmico(a),
O Curso de Letras visa formar profissional inter-
culturalmente capacitado a atuar em todas as áreas
afins do mercado de trabalho, sendo capaz de lidar,
de modo crítico, com as linguagens, principalmente
a verbal, nos contextos oral e escrito, refletindo e
discutindo questões concernentes aos conhecimen-
tos lingüísticos e literários.
Para tanto, será oportunizado, além dos conhe-
cimentos estudados nos módulos específicos do
Curso, exercício reflexivo que se dará por meio do
Laboratório de Práticas Integradas, compreenden-
do os eixos:
a) teoria e prática: situação em que você de-
verá investigar uma realidade, fazendo uso de um
aporte teórico estudado;
b) interdisciplinaridade: instância propícia
em que você poderá relacionar conteúdos estuda-
dos em diferentes módulos ou unidades didáticas;
c) contextualização: oportunidade em que
você poderá relacionar os conhecimentos adquiri-
dos com o seu contexto, visando a melhoria de seu
meio social, a partir da atuação que você terá en-
quanto profissional.
Espera-se, com isso, que o Laboratório de Prá-
ticas Integradas contemple o exercício reflexivo de
teoria e prática, bem como conhecimentos multi-
disciplinares e vivências das rotinas ligadas à área de
Letras e das realidades de cada região.
Abraços,
