PEREZ DE OBANOS ROMERO, Gregorio. Methodological considerations for teaching and learning of additional languages in a multilingual and multicultural university context. Rev. filol. linguíst. Univ.

This paper justifies the relevance of a specific methodology for the teaching and learning of additional languages, according to educational contexts immersed in internationalization processes. To do this, the peculiarities of the Federal University of Latin American Integration are described. This university is a Brazilian public institution with an educational proposal of an interdisciplinary, intercultural, and bilingual nature, with Portuguese and Spanish as vehicular languages. The methodology is described on four components through a bibliographic review and the description of the pedagogical experiences carried out in this university: the integration of curricular content and language; the development of academic literacy, the configuration of an intercultural competence from a critical perspective; and, finally, the incentive for planned translanguaging practices. However, it is essential to analyze the pedagogical potential of this approach through the implementation of research projects, which focus on aspects such as curricular planning, teacher training and the development of teaching materials, among the main ones.

Keywords : intercultural and bilingual education; additional language; language and content integration; academic literacy; translanguaging.
