BRAZILIAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: To disseminate the Brazilian language and culture overseas, To disseminate foreign languages and cultures in Brazil, To research and develop language teaching methodology based on Krashen's theory of language acquisition and Vygotsky's theory of social constructivism, To promote the understanding of the world and global awareness through an open exchange of ideas, values, and beliefs.

THE SETTING: Santa Cruz do Sul Santa Cruz tends to be different than the typical images that people have of Brazil. It is prosperous and safe compared to other Brazilian cities. We are 100 miles (160 km.) from Porto Alegre, the largest city, the state capital and the nearest commercial airport. The main economic activity of Santa Cruz is farm production, processing and exporting of leaf tobacco. Other industries are clothing, corn seed production, machinery, and rubber. There is also a small university, however not strong in linguistics. Strong economic measures to contain inflation in the 90's made the cost of living in Brazil, which had always been low, became comparable to the cost of living in the U.S. for a few years. As of February 99, after a strong devaluation of the Brazilian real, and a continuous devaluation during 2001/02, the cost of living has become a lot cheaper again. Santa Cruz is even cheaper than big cities and it might also be a better place to make friends and learn the culture.

Welcome to Wired News. Skip directly to: Search Box Section Navigation Content Search: Wired News Animations Wired Magazine HotBot (the Web) Tropicalismo 2.0 Page 1 of 1 06:24 PM Feb. 23, 1998 PT Quanta, was preceded by an advance track, "Pela Internet," first released on his Web site. At 56, Gil is the undisputed king of Brazilian pop music. A prolific songwriter and consummate instrumentalist, he has performed with countless international artists. In the late 1960s Gil emerged a leader of tropicalismo, a xenophilic movement that revitalized Brazilian arts. His global outlook, however, forced him into exile in 1970. He returned two years later, serving as minister of culture in his home city of Salvador. Lyrically, Gil addresses a range of topics including African and Oriental culture, social inequality, religious syncretism, and technology. He envisions a future of connectivity and tolerance, of environmental awareness and cross-cultural pollination, borne by an "infotide" washing over the planet. Wired: "Pela Internet" is based on an old Brazilian tune about technology, correct?

During the 1920s samba groups were organized into "schools" that would compete against one another during Carnival for prizes. Samba , which also refers to an accompanying dance form, is of African origin, with its percussion-dominated rhythms being traced to religious possession dances. The various drums, or bateria , are considered powerful instruments with supernatural connections to pagan gods."

Modulations , a new documentary by Brazialian-born documentarian Iara Lee, is the latest combination of the two art forms.

Lee considers Modulations a natural follow-up, another exploration of mundane oddity.

You don't need heating and may not have air conditioning. You pay someone to do your laundry and other household chores like cleaning and cooking. You're quite fastidious about neatness: yout house is very clean and you take one or (during summer) more showers a day.
