Résumé

The primary objective of this research paper is to introduce a conceptual framework that can serve as a guide for research development in the Field of languages and applied linguistics, particularly in the context of teaching at higher education. This conceptual framework was devised by doctoral students during the early stages of their research. One of the key aims of the conceptual framework is to help Doctorate students grasp the significance of having a well-defined conceptual framework in research. It enables them to understand how a conceptual framework serves as a foundation for their studies and helps them organize and structure their research effectively. Furthermore, the research paper emphasizes the importance of critically evaluating existing conceptual frameworks in modern research. By engaging in this critical analysis, Doctorate students can identify the strengths and weaknesses of different frameworks and gain insights into how to develop a more comprehensive and dynamic conceptual framework. Another crucial aspect covered in the research paper is the assessment of the impact of a conceptual framework on research outcomes. This text highlights the importance of understanding how a conceptual framework affects research and its outcomes. It states that a research paper aims to provide guidelines for creating and utilizing a conceptual framework, specifically for Doctorate students. The paper includes explanatory texts that explain the theory behind the framework, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of its principles and concepts. Overall, the text presents a conceptual framework for research development in languages and applied linguistics, particularly in the context of teaching at a Higher education.

O objetivo principal deste artigo de investigação é apresentar um quadro conceptual que possa servir de guia para o desenvolvimento da investigação na área das línguas e da linguística aplicada, nomeadamente no contexto do ensino no  ensino superior. Esta estrutura conceitual foi desenvolvida por estudantes de doutorado durante os estágios iniciais de sua pesquisa. Um dos principais objetivos da estrutura conceitual é ajudar os alunos de doutorado a compreender a importância de ter uma estrutura conceitual bem definida na pesquisa. Permite-lhes compreender como um quadro conceptual serve de base para os seus estudos e ajuda-os a organizar e estruturar a sua investigação de forma eficaz. Além disso, o artigo de pesquisa enfatiza a importância de avaliar criticamente as estruturas conceituais existentes na pesquisa moderna. Ao se envolverem nesta análise crítica, os estudantes de doutorado podem identificar os pontos fortes e fracos de diferentes estruturas e obter insights sobre como desenvolver uma estrutura conceitual mais abrangente e dinâmica. Outro aspecto crucial abordado no artigo de pesquisa é a avaliação do impacto de uma estrutura conceitual nos resultados da pesquisa. Este texto destaca a importância de compreender como uma estrutura conceitual afeta a pesquisa e seus resultados. Afirma que um trabalho de pesquisa visa fornecer diretrizes para a criação e utilização de uma estrutura conceitual, especificamente para estudantes de doutorado. O artigo inclui textos explicativos que explicam a teoria por trás do quadro conceitual, garantindo uma compreensão abrangente de seus princípios e conceitos. No geral, o texto apresenta um quadro conceptual para o desenvolvimento da investigação em línguas e linguística aplicada, particularmente no contexto do ensino e extensão no ensino superior.
