Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this article is to analyze the discourse of high school students in favor of healthy eating in the context of English language teaching in a public professional education school. Based on Dialogic Discourse Analysis, a corpus composed of 2 posts on Instagram by high school students enrolled in the technical course of Nutrition and Dietetics who produced verbal-visual texts during an action research with English classes inspired by Historical-Critical Pedagogy is explored. The analysis of the posts reveals that the discourse in favor of healthy eating is interrelated with the technical discourse, the everyday discourse, and the discourse about the consequences of fast food consumption. The analysis also shows that the posts have a negative value emphasis in relation to the consumption of fast food, and, through the pamphlet and the informative poster, they denounce the dangers of unhealthy food choices, also seeking to raise awareness among their interlocutors and promote a change in the social practice of these subjects. It is concluded that English classes inspired by Historical-Critical Pedagogy provide students with opportunities to disseminate discourses in a far-reaching social network, expanding their interlocutors, committing themselves to collaborate for a society that is more aware of its eating habits.

Instagram，快餐和历史批判教学法:英语教学背景下有利于健康饮食的话语成分

摘要:本文的目的是分析在公立专业教育学校英语教学背景下高中生健康饮食的话语。本文以对话话语分析为基础，探讨了在历史批判教学法启发下的英语课堂行动研究中，参加营养与营养学技术课程的高中生在Instagram上发布的2个帖子组成的语料库。对这些帖子的分析显示，支持健康饮食的话语与技术话语、日常话语以及关于快餐消费后果的话语是相互关联的。分析还表明，这些帖子强调快餐消费的负面价值，并且通过小册子和信息海报，他们谴责不健康食品选择的危险，也试图提高对话者的认识，并促进这些主题的社会实践的变化。结论是，受历史批判教学法启发的英语课程为学生提供了在深远的社会网络中传播话语的机会，扩大了他们的对话者，承诺他们自己为一个更了解其饮食习惯的社会而合作。
