This research is grounded on concepts discussed in the Brazilian National Curriculum Parameters to teach foreign languages in elementary and secondary schools (PCN-LE, Brasil, 1998 and PCN-EM, Brazil, 1999) as well as on currents of thoughts in psychology that form the basis for teaching-learning theories that have most influenced the teachinglearning of foreign languages in our culture (Williams & Burden, 1997, Vygotsky, 1934/2007). This study is also based on concepts of language descriptions (Hutchinson & Waters, 1987; Nunan, 1999), principles of Computer-Assisted Language Learning -- CALL (Warschauer & Healey, 1998, 2004, Beatty, 2003; Hardisty & Windeatt, 1989) and the criteria for didactic material evaluation proposed by Ramos (1998). This study, a case study, was conducted with six student-teachers. The data were collected in 2008, by questionnaires. The analysis of the course shows that the language description and the teaching-learning theory that underlie the course Interaction Teachers do not match the paradigms in the Brazilian National Curriculum Parameters to teach foreign languages in elementary and secondary schools (PCN-LE, Brasil, 1998 and PCN-EM, Brazil, 1999) because the course is based on the structural view of language and on the behaviorist teachinglearning theory. As far as the participants perceptions on linguistic and technological aspects exploited in the course are concerned, results show that they have not improved either their linguistic knowledge or technological skills as a consequence of attending the course / Os objetivos deste trabalho são: analisar como as visões de ensinoaprendizagem e linguagem apregoadas pelos PCN-LE (Brasil, 1998) e PCN-EM (Brasil, 1999) se manifestam no curso Interaction Teachers, um curso de inglês mediado por computador, e identificar as percepções de professores-cursistas sobre aspectos linguísticos e tecnológicos desse curso. As bases teóricas desta pesquisa foram: os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais Língua Estrangeira (Brasil, 1998) e Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais Ensino Médio (Brasil, 1999); correntes de pensamento da psicologia que serviram de base para as teorias de ensinoaprendizagem que mais influenciaram o ensino-aprendizagem de língua estrangeira em nossa cultura (Williams & Burden, 1997; Vygotsky, 1934/2007); as teorias de linguagem (Hutchinson & Waters, 1987; Nunan, 1999); o conceito de Computer- Assisted Language Learning CALL (Warschauer & Healey, 1998, 2004; Beatty, 2003; Hardisty & Windeatt, 1989) e os critérios para avaliação de material didático propostos por Ramos (1998). Esta pesquisa, um estudo de caso, foi realizada com seis professores-cursistas. A coleta de dados foi feita no ano de 2008, por meio de questionários. A análise do curso revela que as concepções de linguagem e ensinoaprendizagem que embasam o curso Interaction Teachers contrariam os paradigmas educacionais que subjazem os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais Língua Estrangeira (Brasil, 1998) e Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais Ensino Médio (Brasil, 1999); pois o curso se configura baseado na visão de linguagem estrutural e na visão de ensino-aprendizagem behaviorista. Sobre as percepções a respeito do curso, os professores-cursistas demonstraram que não obtiveram ganhos linguísticos ou tecnológicos como fruto de sua participação no mesmo
