Abstract

The present end-of-master dissertation aims at designing an innovative English didactic unit for students in the 4th year of Secondary education based on two main necessities identified during the periods of school placement in the Master’s: a rather traditional approach to teaching English, which leads to lack of motivation among students, and the rare percentage of cultural diversity in the school. Two innovations are proposed to deal with these necessities, which entail a change in the methodology of teaching English by dealing with a topic which is far from students’ every day’s experiences: cultural diversity and, more specifically, immigration. The methodology used to cover this topic is Project-Based Learning, while the principles of today’s predominant approach in language teaching are incorporated: Communicative Language Teaching. These innovations are complemented by the implementation of Cooperative learning. The final outcome of the project is to create a video with useful information and resources for new immigrants arriving in Zaragoza. Students collaborate with the organization “Distintos en la Igualdad” to create this product, which is published in the association’s YouTube channel as well as in other digital platforms.<br /> Lahuerta Bruballa, María; Lafuente Millán, Enrique

La me odología suge ida es el Ap endizaje Basado en P oyec os, cumpliendo al mismo iempo
con los p incipios ca ac e ís icos del en oque comunica i o. Es as inno aciones se complemen an
con la implemen ación del Ap endizaje Coope a i o. El esul ado inal de es e p oyec o es la

1. In oduc ion
Nowadays, English plays a p eponde an ole in socie y because i is he p ima y language
used o communica e all a ound he wo ld. I has eme ged as a lingua anca, gi en he
ac ha i is a p ac ical ool used by millions o people (Nagy, 2016), who do no sha e a

en iching bo h ou pe sonal and p o essional li es because i allows us o app oach o he
cul u es and o communica e wi h o he people. Fu he mo e, i is o en an ad an age o
p o essional p omo ion.
Richa ds (2006) s a es ha he global demand o lea n English has b ough wi h i

esou ces as well as a high-quali y English eaching. Cu en cu icula o eaching a
second language poin o Communica i e Language Teaching (hence o h CLT) as he
amewo k o e e ence. The p incipal objec i e o CLT is o each lea ne s
communica i e skills o make hem mas e he language bo h in a luen and accu a e
manne . The ocus is no on linguis ic o ms, as i used o be he case in many p io
me hods, bu on making lea ne s nego ia e meanings and in e ac in a meaning ul way,
hus, p o iding be e oppo uni ies o lea ning he language.
Ne e heless, se e al esea ches claim ha CLT p inciples a e no always
adequa ely applied in he EFL class oom. Teache s’ pe spec i e and unde s anding o his
app oach is some imes ansla ed in o eaching mos ly speaking, doing ole-plays and
o ge ing abou g amma ical o ms (Anani, Mon a ed and Sa a zadeh, 2016). In con as
o he eache s end o ocus only on g amma ac i i ies and epe i ion d ills (Ce ezo, 2007
as ci ed in C iado and Sánchez, 2009, p. 8). The e o e, he e seems o be a gap be ween
CLT heo y and p ac ice. Conc e ely, in Spain, whe e he legisla ion ad oca es he
de elopmen o CLT and he communica i e compe ence, some challenges ound by
P ima y and Seconda y eache s ega ding CLT implemen a ion a e connec ed wi h
conside ing i as an “umb ella e m” (Ga o e, Alonso and Gale i, 2018, p. 57).
Inadequa e implemen a ion o CLT a ec s s uden s’ lea ning as well as hei

owa ds only g amma ical o ms and epe i ion d ills do no p o ide s uden s wi h any

au onomous o de elop hei c i ical hinking and c ea i i y. All hese issues, o igina ed
by a adi ional app oach o eaching, can dec ease s uden s’ mo i a ion and in e es o
he subjec . Ellis (1994, as ci ed in Gömleksiz, 2010, p. 1) sugges s ha a nega i e a i ude
like his one can be an obs acle o lea ning a language. Fo his eason, a eaching
me hodology such as CLT, p e iously explo ed by he eache o be adequa ely

An impo an pa o CLT is se ing a eal con ex while encou aging he

cu icula con en s appea ing in he cu iculum which aim a eaching s uden s’
undamen al alues as well as a de eloping he in e pe sonal, in ape sonal o social ci ic

(1978) claimed he impo ance o lea ning h ough social in e ac ion. Using English, his
lea ning ( amed in a eal con ex ) can be encou aged and CLT plays a signi ican ole in

Di e se me hodologies adjus o he necessi ies p e iously commen ed. They can
apply CLT p inciples in class while wo king hemes ela ed o disco e o he social issues

Lea ning o P ojec Based Language Lea ning ( om now on PBL o PBLL). In his
disse a ion, i is mo e adequa e o e e o PBLL as he me hodology used, because PBLL
is he implemen a ion o PBL in a o eign language class. This is complemen ed by he
eaching me hod o Coope a i e Lea ning. The didac ic uni p oposed in his disse a ion

2. Pu pose and Objec i es
This Mas e ’s disse a ion consis s in designing a didac ic uni ha esponds o speci ic

The main pu pose o his uni p oposal is o elabo a e an inno a i e app oach o

3. Jus i ica ion, Theo e ical F amewo k and Me hodology
3.1. Jus i ica ion
The design o his uni plan comes om wo main aspec s obse ed du ing he placemen
pe iods o he Mas e ’s deg ee. The educa ional cen e in which hese placemen ook
place is he s a e- unded and ca holic school San a Ma ía del Pila (Ma ianis as) in
Za agoza. Loca ed on he banks o Canal Impe ial (Paseo Reyes de A agón 5), he
s uden s’ p o ile is in luenced by he school’s ca holic ideology and by he con ex o he
neighbo hood whe e i is si ua ed (Casablanca), in which, acco ding o ecen su eys
he e is only a 6,15% o immig an popula ion. In addi ion, he amilies in his school a e

we e examined in he i s school placemen ’s assignmen (appendix 1.1.).
The me hodology used in Seconda y class ooms in his school o eaching English
is a he adi ional. S uden s a e used o wo king wi h he book as well as wi h some

ocus on o ms and g amma con en s a he han on he unc ional use o language and
he de elopmen o he communica i e skills, which a e key CLT elemen s. This
me hodology seems o dec ease s uden s’ mo i a ion and in e es in he English subjec ,
as shown in he esul s o a ques ionnai e which was deli e ed o he s uden s as pa o a

1.3.). The ocus o his po olio is on analyzing in e ac ion in he class oom, on he

Based on hese wo c i ical aspec s o he eaching con ex (a limi ed pe spec i e on

As men ioned be o e, he me hodology chosen o elabo a e his didac ic p oposal is
PBLL. A e inishing he p ojec , s uden s a e expec ed o be mo e p epa ed and willing

Why his? As p e iously commen ed, s uden s and eache s in he cu en

Thus, he implemen a ion o new and inno a i e eaching me hodologies allows s uden s

Kagan (1994) de ines his me hodology as “a eaching a angemen ha e e s o
small, he e ogeneous g oups o s uden s wo king oge he o achie e a common goal”.
He es ablishes ou basic p inciples o his app oach (as ci ed by Do son, 2001):
1) Posi i e In e dependence, which e e s o he ac ha when a membe in he

Fu he mo e, he adds ha his app oach has many ad an ages. One o hem is ha i

Al hough i is an ac i i y used o encou age in e ac ion and equal pa icipa ion, i can be

Finally, he pe cen ages o each ma e ial o he summa i e assessmen a e he

5. Conclusion
The main objec i e o his Mas e ’s disse a ion was o iden i y se e al eaching
necessi ies and gaps du ing he mas e in o de o p opose some inno a ions and
35
imp o emen s. Du ing he school’s placemen pe iods, ce ain gaps we e iden i ied which
had o do wi h he me hodology implemen ed in he school and i s con ex .
To begin wi h, he main heme selec ed o his uni is cul u al di e si y,
conc e ely, immig a ion. The school’s pe cen age o immig an s is a e and, he e o e,
s uden s a e no used o deal wi h his eali y ha is pa o ou mul icul u al wo ld. The
cu iculum es ablishes c oss-cu icula hemes and compe ences ha a e ela ed o being
in con ac wi h o he cul u es and people as well as o p omo e alues such as ole ance,
equali y, espec and solida i y. The p ojec s ca ied ou in his school also encou age
hese alues. The e o e, hese opics make sense in he school’s con ex . Dealing wi h
hem aims a aising awa eness among s uden s abou o he people’s eali ies, cul u es
and di icul ies. The use o he English as a ool o communica e among people om all
a ound he wo ld, as a lingua anca, is also a key ma e in dealing wi h hese opics.
The class oom in which he uni is in ended o be implemen ed wo ks in a a he
adi ional way, ocusing on linguis ic o ms and epe i i e exe cises a he han on he
unc ional use o language. This is a e lec ion o he eal wo ld because, as explained in
he in oduc ion o his disse a ion, he de elopmen o he CLT p inciples and he
communica i e compe ence in he eal EFL class oom seems o be a pending issue in
some cases. The e o e, i is impo an o encou age me hodologies ha ha e CLT as i s
co ne s one. The p incipal eaching me hod o his uni plan is PBLL, which pe ec ly
adjus s o CLT. In addi ion o ha , Coope a i e Lea ning is also selec ed because i
complemen s PBL. Consequen ly, he ea u es o CLT a e inco po a ed in o his
class oom wi h he objec i es o p esen ing hese me hodologies o s uden s ha may
inc ease hei mo i a ion.
The challenge o he p ojec is o c ea e a inal ideo ha esponds o a se ies o
necessi ies ound by immig an s when hey a i e in a new ci y. The challenge app oaches
s uden s’ li es because he ideo is o an associa ion in Za agoza. The e o e, s uden s’
engagemen mus be highe due o he esponsibili y hey ha e and he au hen ici y o he
p ojec .
The ac i i ies designed o elabo a e his p ojec ollow he CLT app oach and mos
o hem a e designed o be done in he coope a i e g oups, ollowing B own’s (2007)
c i e ia. This way, in e ac ion is cons an ly p omo ed along he uni . Many o hese
ac i i ies ha e been aken o adap ed om eal sou ces o show s uden s uses o he
language in con ex , which is also a CLT p inciple men ioned by Richa ds (2006).
36
Fu he mo e, s uden s a e encou aged o e lec abou hei own lea ning and o be
au onomous h oughou he de elopmen o he p ojec wi h ac i i ies known as hinking
ou ines ha acili a e ac i a ion o p e ious knowledge, p ocessing new inpu , sel -
e lec ing abou gaps and limi a ions in he lea ning p ocesses, o ganizing ideas, e c. To
summa ize, s uden s ac i ely pa icipa e and his is undamen al o he p ope
de elopmen o he p ojec .
The eache ’s ole is ha o a guide and acili a o o he lea ning p ocess. Se e al
echniques a e implemen ed in his uni o suppo unde s anding among s uden s. These
s a egies ollow Gibbons’ (2014) ideas. Lea ne s a e p o ided wi h mul imodal sou ces
(w i en, o al, audio isual, e c,) o engage each s uden wi h his o he s eng hs and
abili ies. In addi ion, one piece o in o ma ion is p esen ed in di e en ways, based on
Gibbon’s (2014) concep o message abundancy.
Language suppo is also impo an in his uni . The speci ic language o he uni
and he unc ional language a e highligh ed by he eache in di e en manne s. Fo
ins ance, he g amma p esen ed in he uni is wo ked in an induc i e way, p esen ing he
wo ds in con ex and hen, making s uden s no ice and p ac ice hem. The unc ional
language is sugges ed by he eache w i ing in he blackboa d, gi ing s uden s ca dboa ds
wi h sugges ed exp essions and so on.
Finally, he e a e se e al imp o emen s ha mus be highligh ed, and which should
be included in u u e implemen a ions o his uni plan.
In he i s place, he uni plan should be mo e adap ed o s uden s wi h special
needs. In his case, he class o which he p oposal is designed does no ha e any lea ne
wi h special needs, bu his is a signi ican issue o keep in mind when planning o use
his uni in o he con ex s. Each school and class oom is di e en , so he uni would need
o he adap a ions and ac i i ies in a di e en con ex .
Secondly, he uni plan should guide s uden s mo e closely in he c ea ion p ocess
o he ideo (lesson 6). The amoun o ime dedica ed o his pu pose is a he sho and
i is p obable ha in a no mal si ua ion s uden s would need mo e ime o inish and o
e lec abou how o p oduce hei ideos. The e o e, in u u e occasions, he p ojec could
be designed o be implemen ed along mo e lessons, e en hough his is only an
assump ion because he uni plan has no been implemen ed
37
Thi dly, he sca olding p o ided and language suppo mus be aspec s o pay mo e
a en ion o. I is ue ha he uni p esen s ways o language suppo and sca olding bu
hey a e all e y simila , such as w i en ins uc ions, highligh ing wo ds, gi ing w i en
exp essions and h ough eache alk, small icons, e c. These echniques may no be e y
inno a i e and, pe haps, o u u e implemen a ions o his uni , mo e heo e ical
amewo k abou hese opics should be esea ched, con as ing ideas o di e se au ho s
and adap ing he mos adequa e ones o he school and he class oom in which he uni
plan is ca ied ou .
