Resumo
This study focuses on the collaborative learning of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) by ten deaf students who took Libras as a major at Universidade Federal de Goiás. It also aims to investigate if collaboration can help them learn this language and what strategies were taken by the teacher and the students to reach this goal. It also investigates the perceptions of the teacher about the learning of ESP by the deaf in an inclusive classroom and the perceptions of the deaf students about the collaborative learning process. It is a qualitative case study with ethnographic principles whose data were collected through video and audio recording, field notes, teacher's diary, teacher's explanatory notes and interviews and were analyzed according to the tenets of sociocultural theory and collaborative learning. Data analysis shows that some teaching strategies that are very effective for hearing students prove to be not so efficient for the deaf students and, likewise, effective strategies for deaf students are unnecessary for hearing students. The results also show that deaf students have very little interaction with hearing students since most listeners do not know libras. Among the deaf, however, the interaction was intense and provided them with strategies to overcome, in a collaborative way and through the use of scaffoldings, the difficulties they faced in the process of learning ESP. This study aims to raise reflections on the learning of ESP by deaf students, as well as to bring some orientations for future language teachers who may have to teach English in similar contexts.
