Question

Our analysis of the Time to Share series revealed that it follows the principles of recent theories in the development of the learning activities although there is an excessive use of the Portuguese language. Students are somewhat well encouraged to actively participate but more could be done in this sense. Further responsibility could be put upon the students in terms of interactions and research on the web. They are digital natives and their familiarity with this new world can make a difference in their involvement with learning English online for today and for the future. Their success depends on them, and they must be encouraged to learn by themselves. (Reinildes Dias & Ana Emília Fajardo Turbin. The two “multis” and the multiliteracies pedagogy: “shaking hands” in the Brazilian English public education for teens.)
