Ítem Fostering Listening Skills and Initial Intercultural Communicative Competence in EFL Pre-Service Teachers Through the Use of ICT.(Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, 2015) Arias Soto, Luz Dary; Gómez Rodríguez, Luis Fernando; Vera Rodríguez, EsperanzaThe increasingly interconnected and knowledge-driven 21st century world calls for groundbreaking changes in language teaching and learning. To convey this objective, the authors of this book cogently fuse key elements within a sound pedagogical proposal that has been carefully designed to demystify the study of intercultural competence in its traditional settings. Not only does their study ne-tune strategies for the development of critical cultural awareness, but it also unveils paths to authentic interaction, critical thinking, and cooperative, collaborative, and self-regulated learning experiences that evolve in an adaptive learner-centered setting. The scenario chosen to expand students’ communicative boundaries is a hypermedia learning environment that invites learners to travel throughout the United States with a dual focus in mind: the development of listening skills and intercultural competence, as well as nurturing a pluralistic view of the learning of English mediated through the use of technologies. Additionally, the study strives to provide groundwork to less restrictive approaches for the inclusion of eective computer-assisted language learning in the classroom, demonstrating that an interdisciplinary integration of agents and knowledge for ecient design and practice is possible. A unique aspect of this book is that it illustrates a myriad of features underpinning the design of the hypertext, which was entirely created and validated by the authors. All in all, this qualitative case study encompasses a wide range of strategic learning stances in the EFLclassroom, and acts in response to the needs of learners (and instructors) seeking a critical and analytical process of understanding and examining culture. I suggest that this book be used as a reference for language and interdisciplinary courses, as well as professional development programs that combine studies of language skills development and culture.Ítem Encouraging critical thinking development in an EFL classroom through urban legends.(Editorial Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, 2016-01-01) Leal Hernández, Mariela; Gómez Rodríguez, Luis FernandoVivimos en una sociedad en la que los conflictos sociales como la inseguridad, el crimen, y la pérdida de valores, entre otros, son parte constante de la realidad. Estos conflictos no están desligados de la vida escolar. Por ello, este artículo describe un estudio de investigación acción llevado a cabo en una clase de inglés como lengua extranjera que exploró el desarrollo de las habilidades de pensamiento crítico de estudiantes de grado once mediante la discusión de temas sociales relacionados con sus vidas. Para tal efecto, se utilizaron varias leyendas urbanas estadounidenses como medio para desarrollar el pensamiento crítico. Se recogieron datos de las opiniones de los estudiantes y de sus trabajos en clase así como de las notas de campo escritas por los profesores investigadores durante la intervención pedagógica. Los hallazgos revelan que los estudiantes desarrollaron en distintos grados las habilidades de pensamiento crítico, tales como evaluar, criticar, y crear, mientras que mejoraron las habilidades comunicativas en la lengua inglesa.Ítem Enhancing intercultural competence through U.S. multicultural literature in the EFL classroom.(Editorial Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, 2013-12-11) Gómez Rodríguez, Luis FernandoEste artículo informa parte de una experiencia de investigación acción llevada a cabo en una clase de inglés avanzado del programa de lenguas de una Universidad Pública en Bogotá, Colombia en el 2011. El estudio propone la incorporación de textos literarios multiculturales en el contexto de inglés como lengua extranjera como medio para desarrollar la competencia comunicativa intercultural (CCI). Los datos recolectados demuestran cómo los estudiantes adquirieron conocimiento cultural, desarrollaron habilidades críticas y crearon actitudes positivas -aspectos del modelo de CCI propuestos por Byram- cuando leyeron cuentos literarios. Los resultados muestran que la integración del lenguaje y la literatura en EFL constituye un aporte pedagógico para construir conciencia intercultural crítica.Ítem Fostering Listening Skills and Initial Intercultural Communicative Competence in EFL Pre-Service Teachers Through the Use of ICT.(Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, 2015) Arias Soto, Luz Dary; Gómez Rodríguez, Luis Fernando; Vera Rodríguez, EsperanzaThe increasingly interconnected and knowledge-driven 21st century world calls for groundbreaking changes in language teaching and learning.
