Description
Summary:This project has as purpose the improvement of listening comprehension of adult students through digital resources such as Nearpod, Kahoot! and Genially, among others. These tools are electronic means that help to deliver a learning program creating a bridge between the teacher and their students, giving as a result a virtual learning environment. This virtual classroom more than a luxury is a necessity nowadays due to the pandemic situation; therefore, making the most of the E-learning will be essential to implement this proposal. The pedagogical proposal aims to improve listening as one of the most important skills of all because, the more students hear spoken English, the more they are going to acquire it, since if students cannot comprehend what other person is saying, they will have difficulties to establish communication (Morley, 2001). In that regard, students are expected to increase their linguistic and non-linguistic knowledge, always aiming for a meaningful learning. With that being said, some video clips, short interviews, dynamic slides, online quizzes, games, and instructional material are going to be presented to the students, carrying out Bottom-up and Top down strategies tasks guided by the Task Based Learning Approach.
