Resumo: | With the internationalization of Portuguese and the economic development of Portuguese-speaking countries, we have been witnessing a growing interest both in learning Portuguese as a foreign language and in learning it in terms of business. When speakers enroll in these Business Portuguese classes, they are aware that, for a successful negotiation with Portuguese speakers, not only language skills would be needed, but also many other skills, such as sociocultural ones. In this context, the Project Pedagogy proves to be particularly fruitful, given the diverse potentialities that have been demonstrated in various research projects, particularly in the field of language teaching. In this text, we will describe a project activity implemented, precisely, in a Portuguese for Business course, based on the model of the television program ‘O lago dos Tubarões/Shark Tank Brasil’ and on a project already adapted from this same television program, and applied in a Korean course for professional purposes (Choi, 2018). The results obtained demonstrate, in fact, the importance of this approach, which led, for example, to the development and improvement of the students' communication skills not only in general but also, more specifically, in the field of business. In addition, students were also able to build specific knowledge, and not just linguistic, about an important area of knowledge, also improving skills that, most likely, they really may have to use, in the near future, in their professional field. |

Ao inscreverem-se os falantes nestas aulas de português para negócios, têm estes consciência de que, para uma negociação bem-sucedida com falantes de língua portuguesa, seriam necessárias não só apenas competências linguísticas como também muitas outras competências, como as socioculturais. Neste contexto, a abordagem da pedagogia por projetos revela-se particularmente profícua, atendendo às diversas potencialidades que têm vindo a ser demonstradas em diversas pesquisas desenvolvidas, muito particularmente, no campo do ensino de línguas. Ora, neste nosso artigo, descreveremos uma atividade de projeto implementada, precisamente, numa disciplina de português para negócios, baseada no modelo do programa televisivo ‘O lago dos Tubarões/Shark Tank Brasil’ e num projeto já também adaptado a partir deste mesmo programa televisivo e aplicado numa disciplina de coreano para fins profissionais (Choi, 2018). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram, de facto, a importância desta abordagem, que conduziu, por exemplo, a um desenvolvimento e aperfeiçoamento das capacidades de comunicação dos discentes não só em geral como também, mais especificamente, no campo dos negócios. Além disso, os alunos também puderam construir conhecimento específico, e não apenas linguístico, sobre uma sua importante área de conhecimento, aperfeiçoando também competências que, muito provavelmente, poderão mesmo ter de utilizar, num futuro próximo, no seu campo de atuação profissional.Universidade Estadual De Maringá2022-11-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://www.periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciLangCult/article/view/6310410.4025/actascilangcult.v44i2.63104Acta Scientiarum.
