Research paper thumbnail of English for specific purposes (ESP): characteristics and current tendencies in language teaching

Revista EntreLínguas, 2016

One of its branches, English for Academic Purposes, can be considered a current tendency in language teaching due to its aim at focusing on specific communicative needs of members that participate in the academic contexts either conducting research and publishing results or interacting with foreign researchers through the target language. The internalization process of Brazilian universities, the role of English as the language of science and English teaching programs at universities (such as Language without Borders) has intensified the proposal of courses for specific purposes, especially for academic purposes, which categorizes itself as a current tendency in English teaching contexts.

Considerando esse panorama, este trabalho tem como objetivo discutir necessidades linguisticas e pragmaticas apontadas por alunos de uma universidade publica do Estado de Sao Paulo, participantes de programas de intercâmbio (por meio do programa Ciencia sem Fronteiras), especialmente nos Estados Unidos, Canada e Inglaterra, para que se possa pensar em pressupostos ao se planejar cursos e materiais didaticos que considerem necessidades e desafios linguisticos previsiveis para universitarios brasileiros candidatos a intercâmbio em paises de lingua inglesa. Para alcancar tal objetivo, temos como base teorias relacionadas a analise de necessidade (DUDLEY-EVANS E ST JOHN, 2010), questoes pragmaticas (ANDRADE, 2013) e culturais (HINKEL, 2012).
