Description
This research area works within teacher education (covering primary/basic, secondary and tertiary education in Portugal) and provides “add-on value” to CETAPS in terms of research in the field of social sciences and humanities.
Traditionally, research in this field is connected to a specific department or faculty, whether based in modern languages or education sciences. CETAPS/TEALS develops important activities in the specific area of teacher education since many teachers in both faculties (FCSH and FLUP) have been working within the pre-service and in-service teacher programmes offered to graduates of “first cycle” courses.
MA courses associated to this research area – MA in English language education (for primary and secondary levels and for both pre-service and in-service teachers) imply there is a commitment to original research and production of data-driven knowledge. This applies to the teaching staff as well as the student/in-service teachers as researchers, the latter more specifically through classroom-based action research as part of their assessed work.
PhD courses associated with this research area are:
- a) Languages Teaching – Multilingualism and Education for a Global Citizenship, a 3rd-cycle course offered jointly by NOVA FCSH and Open University (Universidade Aberta) in the mode of blended learning [link]. Currently, it has 34 students enrolled since 2015 and the first theses expected to be concluded in 2018. The main research topics involve predominantly English and Portuguese as Foreign Languages. All students who have completed the taught course are officially enrolled at CETAPS and involved in Teacher Education and Applied Language Studies.
- b) the Doctorate Programme in Education offered in a partnership between Universidade Nova de Lisboa – through the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities (FCSH) and the Faculty of Science and Technology (FCT) – and ISPA (Instituto Universitário de Ciências Psicológicas, Sociais e da Vida) [link]. CETAPS/TEALS has been teaching and supervising PhD students who work in theses related to languages teaching and teacher training, in particular teaching English as Foreign Language.
This research area has been enlarged over the years with many PhD scholars and students from very different national institutions (both from Polytechnics and Universities), which constitutes an additional value to the diversity of our studies on TEFL mainly.
Structure
TEALS members combine research with lecturing (at either University or Polytechnic levels). Researchers share an academic background in linguistic, literary or cultural studies. Within this shared general background, their diverse doctoral specialization topics allow for complementarity and multi-perspectivism.
TEALS has expanded its scientific activity to a significant degree. This can be seen in its increased number of researchers, in their academic progression, in the broadening of international cooperation networks, in activities carried out in cooperation with the larger community and in the vitality of its main instruments for scientific dissemination.
We have reorganized our activities in four different research strands that intersect:
- Research Strand D: Intercultural Studies in Second Language Education (convener: Ana Matos)
- Research Strand E: CLIL (convener: Maria Ellison)
- Research Strand F: Languages, curriculum and teacher education (convener: Carlos Ceia and Sandie Mourão)
- Research Strand G: Translationality (convener: Karen Bennett)
Aims
- To promote quality research activities in curriculum studies and teacher education related to language learning in Portugal;
- To engage with student/in-service teachers in academically informed and focused classroom based action research projects, to the benefit of the student/in-service teachers, the faculty staff and the host schools;
- To organize regular conferences in Lisbon and Porto with specially invited overseas speakers;
- To encourage the production of articles for publication based on student teachers’ final reports and in-service teachers’ Final Project Work (Trabalho de Projecto), according to norms defined within CETAPS;
- To publicize the activities and research findings of the research area through regular attendance at local and international conferences;
- To develop current and future international links with like-minded faculty members throughout Europe, making use of existing staff contacts;
- To support teachers and translators in practice to adapt to the changing needs of their profession;
- To create new internationally linked research projects with a strong impact on language education and translation;
- To offer systematic training to young researchers to help them acquire the skills necessary to present and publish scientific research;
- To explore new areas for interdisciplinary research considering the potential of intercultural multilingual and translation studies;
- To develop international research projects on CLIL (English and other foreign languages) within the network www.clil4children.eu, and applied to vocational learning and other specific academic fields;
- To continue developing the project Pan European Task-based Activities for Language Learning

Creative Approaches to New Democracy through Innovative Inclusive Citizenship Education (CANDIICE)
CANDIICE is a five-country collaboration to provide:
During the 2019 – 2022 period of Erasmus funding, CANDIICE.eu will grow into an inspiring online training and resource hub for all educators wishing to expand their uses of creativity, collaboration and learner empowerment. Continual work to rethink and improve genuine inclusion is essential as communities become more diverse – our methodologies are focused on recognising the changing attitudes and forces that deprive and exclude and will promote new uses of digital learning (often non-verbal) to ensure that marginal and disadvantaged learners play their full part. CANDIICE.eu will provide flexible training modules suitable for educators in different sectors of formal and informal education. They will be designed to fit into existing training structures to maximise adaptable ease of use. Training will build capacity, confidence and inspiration to incorporate creative flair into this most important aspect of education for a future inclusive Europe. Additional materials for education leaders and policymakers will give detailed recommendations and strategic guidance at the institution, locality and national levels to provide a roadmap to update citizenship education so that it successfully reinforces inclusive, pluralist democracy in a digital age. Educators responsible for citizenship learning carry a massive responsibility – to ensure that future generations understand and build successful coexistence in changing, diverse communities. A universal commitment to common European values is the bedrock of peaceful coexistence; until recently we assumed that established democratic processes would defend these basic tenets. The mechanisms of democracy have been severely jolted by rapid changes in communications technology, many groups in our populations have been left behind, or excluded in different ways. Citizenship education with extensive digital awareness is the space where future generations must formulate a sophisticated understanding of their part in a democratic future: whether they can be collaborative agents of change or disempowered consumers of manipulated attention and attitudes. CANDIICE.eu will be a major support for educators needing to work effectively in that space. CANDIICE will make exciting new learning materials and associated training freely available through CANDIICE.eu with extensive links through other European online resources and strategic guidance. Materials will be produced through repeated processes of collection and evaluation of best practice, research-based innovation and unique collaborations between our partners: leading European agencies in digital open learning, intercultural inclusion, citizenship, creative community arts, learner Call 2019 Round 1 KA2 – Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices KA204 – Strategic Partnerships for adult education FormId KA204-D0C01D8B Deadline (Brussels Time) 26 Mar 2019 12:00:00 EN 4 / 147 empowerment and professional adult education and training.
