Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/jspui/handle/2011/16429The aim of this research was to develop an educational product focused on the wellbeing of pre-service language teachers. As an English undergraduate student at the Federal University of Pará (UFPA), I have experienced many challenges and difficulties throughout my trajectory which have had an impact on my wellbeing and sparked my interest in investigating this topic. Wellbeing is a construct that emerges from the interaction between personal characteristics and socio-contextual factors in all areas of human life; the aim of this interaction is to find meaning and connection with the world (Mercer; Gregersen, 2020). Various factors contribute to promote a person's wellbeing and flourishing, such as positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning and achievement (Seligman, 2011). In this research, the educational product developed is the Aflorar digital guide, which aims to enhance the wellbeing of pre-service language teachers through reflections and practices that can help them find points of balance in favor of their wellbeing. As a theoretical framework, we draw on studies conducted by Borges (2024), Mercer (2021), Mercer and Gregersen (2020), Oxford (2016a, 2018, 2020), Seligman (2011), Sulis et al. (2021), among others. The methodology adopted was applied research with a qualitative approach involving English undergraduate students at the School of Modern Foreign Languages (FALEM), at the UFPA, located in Belém. Four questionnaires were used to generate data. In the conception stage, bibliographical research and research of guides on teacher wellbeing were carried out. To characterize the context, documentary research was conducted. And in order to direct the development of the Aflorar guide's resources, a questionnaire was applied in which nineteen participants collaborated, with the aim of getting deeper insights into the audience and their wellbeing related needs. The guide was tested, evaluated, and validated with ten participants along two in-person meetings and two meetings involving asynchronous activities. Among the results of this investigation, a positive impact on the participants' wellbeing was evidenced, favoring reflection, identification and understanding of emotions, an increased appreciation of positive experiences, as well as improved time management to prioritize activities that promote their wellbeing. In addition, the guide's resources provided a more positive outlook regarding the challenges faced by participants and facilitated the strengthening of positive relationships. We anticipate that the Aflorar digital guide will make a valuable contribution to the field of language teaching and learning while also positively influencing the wellbeing of pre-service teachers.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Bem-estarGuia digitalEnsino e aprendizagem de línguasPsicologia PositivaFormação inicial de professores de línguasWellbeingDigital guideLanguage teaching and learningPositive psychologyPre-service language teachersDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAO::ENSINO-APRENDIZAGEM::TECNOLOGIA EDUCACIONALCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAO::ENSINO-APRENDIZAGEM::METODOS E TECNICAS DE ENSINOINOVAÇÕES METODOLÓGICAS NO ENSINO SUPERIOR (INOVAMES)METODOLOGIAS DE ENSINO-APRENDIZAGEM
