Resumen
El objetivo principal de este artículo es identificar y analizar el uso de las TIC y la mediación pedagógica que los académicos del Área de Inglés de la Escuela de Literatura y Ciencias del Lenguaje (ELCL) utilizan para enriquecer las clases de inglés. A la luz del cumplimiento de los estándares de calidad de una carrera acreditada por el SINAES, los docentes del Área de Inglés reconocen la importancia de mantenerse actualizados en las estrategias innovadoras con el apoyo de las TIC. Se ha evidenciado que estas promueven el aprendizaje mediante una gama de herramientas virtuales que potencian los estilos de aprendizaje, las inteligencias múltiples, y las necesidades especiales de la diversidad de aprendientes con el fin de mejorar su rendimiento académico. Este estudio se llevó a cabo en febrero del 2015 con una muestra de 27 docentes quienes han mostrado un esfuerzo e interés en ser conocedores de diferentes recursos tecnológicos que ellos utilizan en sus lecciones. Igualmente, los resultados del estudio indican que la ELCL se esmera por mejorar este ámbito ofreciendo capacitación docente más permanente.
The main objective of this paper is to identify and analyze the use of ICTs and the pedagogical mediation that professors of the English Department at the School of Literature and Language Sciences (ELCL) at Universidad Nacional (UNA) use to enhance their English classes. By complying with the quality standards of an accredited major by SINAES, professors of the English majors recognize the importance of being up-to-date when it comes to innovative strategies with the support of ICT. It is plausible that these state-of-the-art technologies promote learning through a series of virtual tools that foster the students’ learning styles, multiple intelligences, and special needs, in order to improve their academic performance. This study was carried out in February, 2015 with a sample of 27 professors who have shown an effort and interest in knowing how to implement the different technological resources in their classes. Moreover, them results of this study demonstrate that the School of Literature and Language Sciences has gone to great lengths to improve in this area by offering constant profesional development activities on a regular basis.
