Resumen
Este trabajo presenta un proyecto de investigación llevado a cabo en una Institución pública articulada con el SENA CEDEAGRO en Boyacá, Colombia, con estudiantes de grado décimo. La investigadora decidió desarrollar este tema porque el análisis de las necesidades de los estudiantes informó sobre la falta de estrategias de lectura que se desconocían y que se podrían utilizar para identificar las ideas principales de los artículos Agronomía, así como por el énfasis de la competencia de Inglés del SENA que se basa en el requisito de mejorar la comprensión de textos. El proyecto se centró en el desarrollo de cuatro clases en las que se fomentó el uso de seis estrategias de lectura: predicción, activación de conocimientos previos, preguntas, relectura, resumen y evaluación. La recolección de datos se llevó a cabo mediante el uso de registros de los estudiantes, entrevistas y artefactos. El análisis de datos incluyó las percepciones de los participantes sobre la utilidad de las estrategias. Los resultados mostraron que los participantes consideraron que las estrategias de lectura les llevaron a una mejor comprensión de textos y así identificar las ideas principales, también a un incremento de vocabulario. Los estudiantes también se sienten más organizados y animados al leer ya que ellos siguieron un proceso completo en el que cada una de las estrategias les dio apoyo y andamiaje para comprender los textos. La investigadora espera que los resultados de este estudio aporten ideas a otros docentes de inglés que estén interesados en la mejora de la comprensión lectora de sus alumnos.
