Uso de Redes Sociales como Herramienta para Mejorar la Escritura en Inglés Como Lengua Extranjera
Resumen
La enseñanza y el aprendizaje de idiomas ha sufrido varios cambios como resultado de la pandemia del coronavirus. Las escuelas y universidades respondieron cambiando a nuevos entornos de instrucción, como el aprendizaje en línea y la Enseñanza Remota de Emergencia. Esta situación los llevó a buscar alternativas que les permitieran continuar con su proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje. Las Redes Sociales brindaron estas alternativas y reportaron un gran crecimiento de uso durante la pandemia. Este estudio de caso exploratorio tiene como objetivo analizar la forma en que los estudiantes de Inglés como Lengua Extranjera utilizan las redes sociales como una herramienta para mejorar sus habilidades de escritura durante la pandemia de COVID-19, así como sus percepciones, y las ventajas y desventajas de su uso. Los participantes fueron diez estudiantes avanzados matriculados en un programa de Licenciatura en Lengua Inglesa de una universidad situada en el estado de Veracruz, México. La recolección de datos se realizó a través de un cuestionario y una entrevista semiestructurada y se analizó utilizando aspectos de la teoría fundamentada. Los hallazgos indicaron que las Redes Sociales puede verse como una herramienta para obtener práctica adicional y mejorar sus habilidades de escritura en un idioma extranjero. Además, reveló que los estudiantes de Inglés como Lengua Extranjera tienen una percepción general positiva del uso de Redes Sociales como una herramienta para practicar y mejorar su escritura, ya que se reportaron más ventajas que desventajas.
