Las fronteras se caracterizan, a menudo, por la aparición de relaciones de poder asimétricas que transmiten estructuras de dominación-subordinación que pueden contribuir a una experiencia negativa de su superdiversidad. Es importante deconstruir esta realidad mediante el desarrollo de conocimientos, destrezas y actitudes plurilingües e intercultura...

L'intercompréhension (IC) est une approche plurielle en didactique des langues (Candelier & al., 2012) des plus dynamiques. Elle est notamment très active dans les domaines de la recherche et de la formation. Partant du présupposé que tout concept didactique n'a de valeur que dans les mains de ceux qui le pratiquent, nous esquissons tout d'abord la...
In the paper, we examine the concept of mediation, through an analysis of an on-line, multilingual teacher education environment. In particular, we analyse the exchanges of the participants during an on-line session aimed at teacher development in Intercomprehension theories and practices.

The new forms of communication associated with virtual mobility have motivated a...

Against this background, we present a study based on the diagnosis of the reciprocal images of Portuguese and Turkish university students learning each other’s lan...
A investigação sobre intercompreensão em Didática de Línguas tem vindo a evidenciar os constrangimentos do conceito em termos da sua circulação fora dos espaços académicos, mais concretamente, na escola.

L’intercompréhension est une pratique, une approche didactique, un terrain de recherche mais aussi une posture. Nous faisons intercompréhension sans nous en apercevoir tous les jours : dans la rue, à la maison, sur internet, via les réseaux sociaux et dans d’autres innombrables occasions, en tissant des liens et en engendrant des réseaux vertueux d...

O “diálogo intercultural” tem vindo a ser um conceito progressivamente integrado nos discursos educativos, sendo a Didática de Línguas uma das áreas que ele mais tem inspirado. Efetivamente, abordar as línguas implica, metonimicamente, abordar as culturas, e trabalhar, em contexto pedagógico, o diálogo entre línguas, é sempre trabalhar o diálogo en...

We believe that with the positioning of Spanish as an international language and the prominent role of Hispano- American countries in the vitality and projection of this language (Mora-Figueroa, 1998), there is a need for the inclusion of linguistic and cultural varieties in the teaching and learning process of Spanish as Foreign Language, in a con...
