Uma proposta de atividades envolvendo o Duolingo para o fomento da Cidadania Global na Educação Profissional e Tecnológica

The author of this study suggests that education for Global Citizenship, which concerns people who care about issues related to the local and global sphere (Belli; Luna, 2024), can be promoted through a proposal of activities, which encompasses virtual exchange, digital stories and the Duolingo application, with the aim of facilitating the learning of English in the Professional and Technological Education context. Thus, based on the theoretical contribution of researchers such as Schaefer and Heemann (2024a, 2024b), Silva (to be published) and Hanna (2024), this study seeks to present a proposal of activities, which involves the use of Duolingo, as a strategy for the learning of English and for the development of Global Citizenship in the context of Professional and Technological Education. These activities, which can be applied over 16 classes, consist of the virtual exchange between students from a Brazilian institution and students from an Indian institution. It seems possible to claim that that proposals of activities that comprise the work with different digital resources, just as the resources used in this study, can encourage Global Citizenship as well as integral formation through critical thinking in educational institutions.
