THE AFFECT OF PSYCHOANALYSIS ON LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING: CONVERSATION AS RESEARCH IN THE CONTINUING EDUCATION OF BASIC SCHOOL TEACHERS.

The general objective of this research project is to host other projects that take the conversation circles guided by psychoanalysis as a research methodology or use the corpus generated by them. It is hoped, as a result, that we can touch the real point (or way of obtaining instinctual satisfaction) of teachers and students of basic schools, that is, to make it possible for the impasses that leave these subjects impotent in the face of what they cannot explain find creative outlets, thus displacing the signifiers that paralyze them.
