SALAMANCA GONZALEZ, Fredy Orlando. Personal Narratives: A Pedagogical Proposal to Stimulate Language Students’ Writing. []. , 22, 1, pp.65-79. ISSN 0120-5927.  https://doi.org/10.19183/how.22.1.134.

^len^aIn a public university in Tunja (Colombia), undergraduate language students mentioned that writing was important and yet, they kept at a distance from it due to its requirements. The aim of this pedagogical intervention was to find a strategy to encourage students to write and, more importantly, to feel an identity with their texts. For this pedagogical intervention, students were required to write narratives that allowed them to portray their experiences using the target language and to look for the most accurate words and descriptions. From a pedagogical perspective, writing the narratives provided the teacher with the possibility of knowing his students better and to feel an affiliation towards them.^les^aEn una universidad pública en Tunja, estudiantes de pregrado de un programa de idiomas mencionaron que saber escribir es importante pero las exigencias escriturales hacen que se alejen de ella. La intención de esta intervención pedagógica fue la de encontrar una estrategia para que los estudiantes escribieran y, además hacer que ellos se identificaran con sus textos. Se implementó el uso de narrativas que permitieran a los estudiantes retratar sus experiencias en el idioma extranjero con palabras y descripciones precisas. Desde el punto de vista pedagógico, las narrativas le facilitaron al docente conocer a sus estudiantes y sentir afinidad hacia ellos.
