CONTRERAS LEON, Janeth Juliana e CHAPETON CASTRO, Claudia Marcela. Cooperative Learning With a Focus on the Social: A Pedagogical Proposal for the EFL Classroom. How [online]. 2016, vol.23, n.2, pp.125-147. ISSN 0120-5927. https://doi.org/10.19183/how.23.2.321.
This article is a report of a pedagogical intervention which was developed with a group of seventh graders during their English as a foreign language class in a public school in Bogotá. It is part of an investigation in which the main purpose was to foster students’ classroom interaction through the use of cooperative learning principles from a dialogical perspective that focused on social aspects of students’ school lives. Thus, the instructional design incorporated a methodology that focused on the students’ realities and provided opportunities for dialogue, cooperation, and reflection. From a pedagogical perspective, this experience promoted changes in the classroom practices allowing a new vision of group work, encouraging personal growth and social awareness among participants.
