Abstract

This article presents an overview of research on language and technology in the last 12 years at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais and includes a brief description of research on literature and technology. The thesis and dissertations produced at the Graduate Program on Linguistic Studies were divided into five thematic groups: language/ discourse characteristics; reading; writing; teaching and learning; and virtual learning spaces. The great majority of these studies were case studies, and data were collected by means of observation, interview and questionnaires. There is a predominance of studies focusing on teaching and learning, but there are few studies about interaction on the web. This study reveals that research is unable to follow the speed of technology innovation.
