Resumo: | Narratives reveal complex nets of experiences, typical of dynamic systems. Disentangling them reveals their nature, broadening and deepening the understanding of complex language teaching and learning processes. In this paper, we present over 20 years of research done in Brazil, focusing on foreign language teaching and learning experiences. Reviewing the motivation that led Author 1 to the emergence of experiential research, we discuss experience as a construct and unit of analysis and its complex nature; share visual representations of the complexity of teaching and learning experiences with illustrative data excerpts; and finally present teachers’ and students’ experiential frames of reference for research. To conclude, we defend experiential research as a successful approach to investigate language teaching and learning, hoping that other researchers may find it useful. |

Desembaraçá-los revela sua natureza, ampliando e aprofundando a compreensão de processos complexos de ensino e aprendizagem de idiomas. Neste artigo, apresentamos mais de 20 anos de pesquisas realizadas no Brasil, com foco em experiências de ensino e aprendizagem de línguas estrangeiras. Revendo a motivação que levou o autor 1 ao surgimento da pesquisa experimental, discutimos a experiência como um construto e unidade de análise e sua natureza complexa; compartilhar representações visuais da complexidade das experiências de ensino e aprendizagem com trechos ilustrativos de dados; e, finalmente, apresentar os quadros de referência experientes de professores e alunos para pesquisa. Para concluir, defendemos a pesquisa experimental como uma abordagem bem-sucedida para investigar o ensino e a aprendizagem de idiomas, esperando que outros pesquisadores possam achar útil.

Narratives reveal complex nets of experiences, typical of dynamic systems. Disentangling them reveals their nature, broadening and deepening the understanding of complex language teaching and learning processes. In this paper, we present over 20 years of research done in Brazil, focusing on foreign language teaching and learning experiences. Reviewing the motivation that led Author 1 to the emergence of experiential research, we discuss experience as a construct and unit of analysis and its complex nature; share visual representations of the complexity of teaching and learning experiences with illustrative data excerpts; and finally present teachers’ and students’ experiential frames of reference for research. To conclude, we defend experiential research as a successful approach to investigate language teaching and learning, hoping that other researchers may find it useful. |
