contents Motivational dynamics in English classes at a Brazilian public school Raquel Bambirra Educación co soft assembly adaptation english classes This paper seeks to discuss the interrelations between the motivation of an English teacher at a public federal high school in Brazil and that of her students from a dynamic systems perspective. Three teachers’ oral narratives and 14 students’ logbook entries were used for the data analysis. The teacher’s descriptions and comments on her pedagogical practice were compared to the students’ impressions and motivational levels in an attempt to understand this English classroom-system motivational dynamics and self-organization processes, focusing on how this teacher’s and her students’ motivation co-adapt and soft-assemble, influencing and being influenced by the context. The results seem to confirm not only that student motivation and teacher motivation are deeply interrelated, but also that they interact organically and continually, revealing that the context is contingent. 2017 artículo científico 1676-0786 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=339851657002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3398 Revista Brasileira de Linguística Aplicada application/pdf Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais Revista Brasileira de Linguística Aplicada (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.17
