- Learning to use R2L in PortugalPublication . Gouveia, Carlos A. M.; Alexandre, Marta; Caels, Fausto Felix Geert; Claire Acevedo, Claire; Rose, David; Whittaker, RachelThis chapter reports on the use of the genre-based literacy pedagogy Reading to learn (R2L) in the cultural, educational and linguistic context of Portugal. R2L was officially introduced during the European Comenius project Teacher Learning for European Literacy Education (TeL4ELE). Following the project, R2L was introduced in pre-service teacher training programmes and in different university courses as part of their literacy development strategies. R2L workshops have been conducted in different parts of the country and there is a growing body of research on the use of R2L in different fields and educational settings (articles, book chapters, theses). Working closely with teachers and school boards, and creating interdisciplinary teams have proven to be crucial in overcoming initial resistance by professionals who claim to possess prior knowledge of genre principles (language teachers) and by those who fear R2L will compromise content teaching (subject teachers). Lack of materials on genre pedagogy, and the pre-existence of genre-related terminology in the Portuguese curriculum has led to a project to describe and exemplify the genres of the Portuguese curriculum and to promote dialogue between different genre-based approaches in use in Portugal.
