También se analiza la necesidad de aumentar la conciencia y la comprensión de los maestros de estas metodologías, las creencias y los comportamientos de los docentes que se requieren para cambiar en el aula. Igualmente, presentó los hallazgos que revelaron que el enfoque centrado en el estudiante es una alternativa para los maestros en las clases y los colegios necesitan incluirlo en el Proyecto Educativo Institucional (PEI) para alcanzar el bilingüismo. Así mismo, permite a los estudiantes explorar, practicar y aumentar su autonomía y confianza en sí mismos utilizando el idioma extranjero.  application/pdfengspaUniversidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/enletawa_journal/article/view/8677/7209Copyright (c) 2018 ENLETAWA JOURNALhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Enletawa Journal; Vol. 10 No. 1 (2017): January - June; 87-96Enletawa Journal; Vol. 10 Núm. 1 (2017): January - June; 87-962463-19652011-835Xstudent-centeredEnglish as a foreign languageeducation policyaprendizaje centrado en el estudianteinglés como lengua extranjerapolíticas educativasReflections on student-centered learning: An alternative to traditional English classesReflexiones sobre el enfoque centrado en el estudiante: Una alternativa para las clases tradicionales de inglésinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1Fonseca Cely, Sulma PatriciaCano García, Leidy Girleza001/16047oai:repositorio.uptc.edu.co:001/160472025-07-18 11:15:16.921metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uptc.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UPTCrepositorio.uptc@uptc.edu.co
