| dc.description.abstract | At Universidade Aberta, Portugal’s unique distance learning university, undergraduate degrees include foreign language courses in German, Spanish, French and English (A1 – C1). These are taught entirely online through a learning platform (Moodle) which includes tools and resources teachers may use in their classes. In our experience of e-learning, we have been engaged in exploring how to effectively teach language skills online resorting to the latest technology at hand. Since the onset of Covid, however, we have been faced with an even greater challenge: to reach further in our standards of innovation and reference in the field of distance and online learning in Portugal, and that means working collaboratively to develop new and creative methodologies that will help students to acquire, not only the necessary language skills, but also communicative and collaborative competences in a world undergoing many transformations. In this paper we focus on the use of texts in language teaching online and on how, because of Covid, the teaching-learning process has had to further reinvent itself, even at a University already designed to teach at a distance. To illustrate our ideas, we refer to examples of texts taught in the four languages, on the tools and resources used to create learning materials, their application in the foreign language virtual classroom and on the importance of using texts in language teaching. | pt_PT |
