Resumo: | Teletandem is a virtual autonomous VoIP2 technology-based context (webcam images, voice and text). Within this context, two students help each other learn their native (or other) language through intercultural and linguistic collaboration. Performative Theory can shed light on the constitution of these students' national identities, as they engage in linguistic performances of marking and discussing differences between their countries during teletandem. Based on critical approaches to discourse and intercultural communication, my analysis shows that this online intercultural contact opens innovative possibilities for foreign language teachers to promote intercultural contact with the different. However, without teacher mediation, teletandem interactions may fall into shallow performances of sedimented and pre-given representations of self and other. Subsequently, this article concludes with a discussion of relevant pedagogical points for foreign language teachers. |

Neste contexto, dois estudantes de línguas estrangeiras colaboram um com o outro na aprendizam de sua respectivas línguas nativas (ou de proficiencia) por meio da interação intercultural e linguística. A Teoria da Performatividade pode esclarecer a constituição das identidades nacionais desses alunos quando eles marcam e discutem diferenças entre seus dois países durante sessões de teletandem. Com base em abordagens críticas ao discurso e a comunicação intercultural, minha análise mostra que o contato intercultural on-line abre possibilidades inovadoras para professores de línguas estrangeiras promoverem o contato intercultural com o diferente. No entanto, sem a mediação do professor, as interações de teletandem podem se restringir a performances superficiais e pré-determinadas de representações sedimentadas de si e do outro. Concluo com uma discussão acerca de pontos pedagógicos relevantes para professores de línguas estrangeiras.Universidade Estadual PaulistaUniversidade Estadual PaulistaFaculdade de Letras - Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUniversidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)Telles, João Antonio2015-08-21T17:54:46Z2015-08-21T17:54:46Z2015-03-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article1-30application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1984-639820155536Revista Brasileira de Linguística Aplicada.
