Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss the factors involved in the construction of knowledge of English teachers-to-be in the English classes of an undergraduate foreign language teacher education course (Letras course) at a university in the state of São Paulo, having as theoretical constructs the concepts of guided participation, intersubjectivity, symbolic mediation, affect, and valoration. To achieve its objective, the discussions on English learning of ten students in this course in the period 2005-2006 were analysed. Results show that these factors inter-relate in classroom activities to build knowledge not only about the language but also about teaching and learning English as a foreign language.
