Literature, Collaboration, Teaching, Learning, TechnologyAbstract
This paper analyzes four collaborative English classes conducted by a teacher from a public school who used fairy tales to teach remotely while exploring WhatsApp and social networks to keep students interested in the subject. To generate the data, we transcribed one of the ninth-grade students’ interactions: an interview in which they expressed their impressions about the lessons and classroom observation notes. The results of the data analysis show that the students became highly motivated by having worked collaboratively because they could exchange opinions and points of view on the literary texts and better understand them by interacting with their peers.
