Este artigo constituiu um exercício de reflexão sobre um dos cenários
educativos mais promissores do Ensino Superior atual: o blended learning. Assumimos o
ponto de vista da Terminologia, disciplina que se ocupa da representação, da descrição
e da definição do conhecimento especializado através da língua. Neste quadro teórico,
os conceitos, enquanto elementos da estrutura do conhecimento, constituem um
objeto de investigação de complexidade não despicienda, pois, apesar do postulado de
que a língua é uma ferramenta fundamental para descrever e organizar o
conhecimento, o princípio isomórfico não pode ser tomado como adquirido. A
abordagem conceptual em Terminologia propõe uma visão precisa do papel da língua
no trabalho terminológico, sendo premissa basilar que não existe uma
correspondência unívoca entre os elementos atomísticos do conhecimento e os
elementos da expressão linguística. Não obstante, como será demonstrado, a análise
do texto de especialidade é uma ferramenta relevante para acesso ao conceito,
constituindo um dos principais ambientes discursivos ao dispor do terminólogo.
The paper aims at discussing one of the most prominent scenarios of current Higher Education: blended learning. We subscribe the view presented in Contemporary Terminology, which is a powerful discipline that aims at representing, describing and defining specialized knowledge through language. Concepts, as elements of the structure of) emerge as a complex research object. Can they be found in language? A concept-based approach to Terminology implies a clear-cut view of the role of language in terminological work: though language is postulated as being a fundamental tool to grasp, describe and organize knowledge an isomorphic principle cannot be taken for granted. In other words, the foundational premise of a concept-based approach is that there is no one-to-one correspondence between atomic elements of knowledge and atomic elements of linguistic expression. However, specialized text research is here regarded as a valuable tool to study concept, as text is a natural environment for scientific and technical discourse.
