A didactic guide for teaching and learning english through web sites

Abstract:

At present, To be communicatively competent in English has become an important qualifying asset for any profession or job. This is the reason why it is important to improve the methods of teaching and learning English. Teachers and pupils do not give the necessary importance to learning English. Students are not motivated by the traditional methods of instruction. The classrooms are overcrowded, and the teachers are unable to provide instruction suitable for the different learning styles of the students. Today, children enjoy learning through visual stimulation, movement and sound. This project consists in writing a Didactic Guide for teachers and students of the 6th and 7th grades. The Guide includes a collection of classroom activities, selected websites, accuracy-oriented exercises, and electronic learning activities. It also includes sound and image as contributing factors to stimulate interest, concentration and attention. This Guide is based on the theoretical framework of David Ausubel s Significant Learning Theory. The activities use different methodological principles taken from the Computer-Assisted Language Learning, Communicative Approach, and Task-based learning. Actual activities and relevant websites are included in the Guide to assist the teachers in using these different methodological principles. The activities were tested with students enrolled in the Yanuncay Education Unit. The recommendations and conclusions found in this thesis are based on the experiences of the writers
