Innovation in language education, just as in any other discipline, is connected with changes whose primary goal is to make the process of language learning/language teaching more efficient. Examples of such innovations include, for instance, task based instruction, computer assisted language learning or the use of portfolio as a means of assessment.Innovation implies a new, qualitatively different perception of the language learning/ language teaching process, roles of teachers and learners, use of materials etc., hence it is believed to constitute a challenge for language teachers and their professionalism. The present article is an attempt to answer the question whether and to what extent the language teaching profession is actually prepared to deal with innovation.

Em uma perspectiva interacionista sociodiscursiva, advogamos que, para alcançar seus objetivos, o trabalho com línguas na rede regular pública de ensino pode ser planejado em sequências didáticas organizadas em torno degêneros textuais. Tais unidades visam ao desenvolvimento de capacidades de linguagem, entendidas como “aptidões requeridas para a realização de um texto numa situação de interação determinada” (DOLZ; PASQUIER; BRONCKART, 1993, p.30). A partir desses pressupostos, sequências didáticas foram aplicadas a alunos de uma escola municipal de Joinville, ao longo de um ano escolar, com o objetivo de possibilitar a participação efetiva em um projeto de troca de correspondências. Dentre os gêneros abordados, selecionamos receitas culinárias para o escopo deste artigo, que visa, assim, descrever o material elaborado e analisar as produções de um aluno de modo a ilustrar oportunidades (ou não) de desenvolvimento de capacidades de linguagem possibilitadas por um trabalho dessa natureza. Palavras-chave: Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo; gênero textual receita culinária; sequência didática; ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa; desenvolvimentode capacidades de linguagem.The work with a didactic sequence of recipes in English as an additional language in a public schoolAbstract In a sociodiscursive interactionist perspective, we advocate that, to achieve its goals, the work with languages in public regular schools can be planned in didactic sequences towards genres.

Since language and culture have muscle and bone relationship, the existence of one in the absence of another in unthinkable. But in practice, English language teaching has paid less attention to the local culture. It is commonly believed that the insertion of foreign cultural values is not in line with local cultural values. The insertion of local culture plays vital role in promotion of nationalism, different local cultures and local cultural wisdom. Similarly, it provides cultural identity and meaningful context for learning. Therefore, the main purpose of this article is to shed light on the importance of local culture in the English language classroom. In doing so, it aims at defining culture, language, shows relationship between them and puts forth some pedagogical guidelines. Journal of NELTA, Vol. 21, No. 1-2, 2016, Page:54-60
