The production of open educational resources in the training of teachers of Portuguese as an additional language

Abstract

This article aims to contextualize and expose the work of production of didactic material as An Open Educational Resource (OER) in one of the disciplines of teaching Portuguese for Speakers of Other Languages (PFOL), of the English Letters Course of the Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR), Curitiba campus (CT), looking at the importance of this production in the training of Portuguese teachers for foreigners. We are interested in discussing the relevance of open education through materials that are configured as OERs, the students' agency in the production of teaching materials, the appropriation by them of this component in their formation as teachers, thus conforming the theoretical-methodological panorama of the construction of this discipline. Therefore, we describe how the discipline in question is organized and bring some reflections on the literature and assumptions that underlie its syllabus and how such organization is intertwined with the praxis of teachers in initial training.
