Resumen (en)
This reflective paper aims at disseminating a proposal for instruction to promote learning strategies in the foreign language classroom. The proposal was constructed based on the results of two action-research projects conducted at the Foreign Language Teacher Education Program (English – French) at Universidad del Valle, in Cali, Colombia. The results of these projects suggest that the implementation of learning strategies requires a specific sequence to develop learner autonomy and that finding the right dosage of strategies to cover in a course is paramount for their successful acquisition and implementation. Thus, the authors propose an adaptable instruction model that considers the findings of their research experiences. In this paper, the authors claim that while some strategies can be developed spontaneously throughout the learning process, some other strategies are more difficult to grasp, and therefore they require explicit instruction in just the right amount.
Resumen (es)
Este artículo de reflexión se propone socializar una propuesta de instrucción para promover estrategias de aprendizaje en el aula de lengua extranjera. La propuesta se construyó sobre la base de los resultados de dos proyectos de investigación, los cuales se llevaron a cabo en el programa de Licenciatura de Lenguas Extranjeras (Inglés–Francés) de la Universidad del Valle, en Cali, Colombia. Los resultados de estos proyectos sugieren que, por un lado, la implementación de estrategias de aprendizaje necesita una secuencia específica para que el aprendiz desarrolle autonomía; y, por otro lado, que para adquirir e implementar exitosamente las estrategias de aprendizaje es indispensable encontrar la dosis justa en el número de estrategias a trabajar. Así, los autores proponen un modelo adaptable de instrucción que toma en cuenta los hallazgos de sus experiencias investigativas. En este artículo, los autores argumentan que, si bien algunas estrategias pueden desarrollarse de manera espontánea, otras son más difíciles de adquirir y requieren, por lo tanto, una instrucción explícita en la medida justa.
