dc.descriptionspa:El presente proyecto de investigación reporta los hallazgos de un estudio cualitativo de investigación acción realizado con catorce docentes en servicio (DS) que laboran en el nivel de básica primaria de una escuela pública indígena en Colombia. Esta propuesta describe el impacto de un programa de desarrollo profesional (PDP) sobre las prácticas de enseñanza de inglés de DS a través de talleres, considerando el conocimiento del idioma y las prácticas de enseñanza. En la etapa de diagnóstico, la aplicación de un cuestionario a estudiantes y docentes, algunas observaciones de clase y un grupo focal permitieron identificar el problema principal considerando principalmente el perfil de los docentes y sus necesidades profesionales. Esas características fueron la base para planificar los talleres desde dos aspectos importantes: el dominio del idioma y la metodología. Durante la etapa de acción, los instrumentos aplicados fueron una prueba de idioma, cuestionarios, rúbricas, observaciones de clase y un post-test que determinaron el impacto de los talleres a lo largo del PDP. Los hallazgos sugieren que los docentes en servicio del nivel de básica primaria no cuentan con la formación suficiente para enseñar inglés, lo que hizo necesaria la implementación de un PDP para que aprendieran las diferentes destrezas del idioma reflexionando a su vez con colegas sobre los aspectos académicos y metodológicos respecto al conocimiento y manejo de enfoques de enseñanza del inglés. Por lo tanto, los DS evidenciaron una mejora en las habilidades lingüísticas y una forma innovadora de implementar estrategias efectivas con estudiantes de primaria. Para concluir, este programa de desarrollo profesional permitió a los DS implementar diversos enfoques y herramientas dentro de la clase. Además, reflexionar sobre sus prácticas cotidianas al momento de enseñar inglés a sus estudiantes.
dc.descriptioneng:The present research project reports the findings of a qualitative action research study conducted with fourteen in-service teachers (ISTs) who work at the elementary school level of an indigenous public school in Colombia. This proposal describes the impact of a professional development program (PDP) on the English teaching practices through workshops, considering language proficiency and methodology of ISTs. In the diagnostic stage, the administration of a questionnaire to students and teachers, some class observations, and a focus group interview allowed the identification of the main problem considering mainly the teachers’ profile and their professional needs. Those characteristics were the basis to plan the workshops from two important aspects: language proficiency and methodology. During the action stage, the instruments conducted were a placement test, questionnaires, rubrics, class observations, and a post-test which determined the impact of the workshops throughout the PDP. Findings suggest that in-service teachers at the elementary school level do not have enough training to teach English which made the implementation of a PDP necessary for them to learn the different language skills and the reflection on academic and methodological issues with colleagues regarding current English teaching approaches. Thus, IST evidenced improvement in language skills and an innovative way to implement effective strategies with elementary school students. To conclude, this professional development program empowered IST to implement diverse approaches and tools inside the class. Furthermore, they reflected on their everyday practices when teaching English to their students.
