This study was carried out at a state-funded school in Puerto Gaitán, Meta (Colombia) with 36 sixth graders between 12- 14 years old. This research used the Grounded Theory (Strauss & Corbin, 1997) and the theoretical and the methodological triangulation to analyse the information gathered via three instruments: students’ artefacts, teacher’s field notes, and video/audio-recordings. The outcomes revealed that working with contextualised workshops that embrace local culture with an attractive design fostered students’ meaningful learning, since the topics, localised colourful pictures, the examples provided, and the pedagogically sequenced activities or lessons, help them to learn and create an effective communication.

Esta investigación acción cualitativa exploró el desarrollo e implementación de talleres contextualizados en relación con el fortalecimiento de la comunicación oral y la conciencia cultural. El estudio se llevó a cabo en un colegio público en Puerto Gaitán, Meta (Colombia) con 36 estudiantes de sexto grado, entre los 12 y los 14 años. Este estudio usó el enfoque de teoría fundamentada (Strauss & Corbin, 1997) y la triangulación metodológica para analizar la información recolectada de tres instrumentos: artefactos de los estudiantes (talleres), notas de campo y grabaciones de audio y video. Los resultados revelaron que trabajar con talleres contextualizados que incorporan la cultura local con diseño atractivo fortaleció el aprendizaje significativo de los estudiantes, puesto que las imágenes locales a color, los ejemplos y las actividades o lecciones secuenciadas los motivaron a aprender y construir una comunicación efectiva. Del mismo modo, la comunicación oral fue un vehículo para expresar sentimientos e ideas, puesto que los estudiantes usaron movimientos corporales, adquirieron vocabulario y construyeron nuevos conceptos cuando compartían puntos de vista. Finalmente, los talleres contextualizados ayudaron a los estudiantes a fortalecer su conciencia cultural mediante el conocimiento de su propia cultura permitiéndoles pensar en acciones para cuidarla. 2022-07-01T14:11:21Z 2022-07-01T14:11:21Z 2021 Capítulo - Parte de Libro http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_3248 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_dc82b40f9837b551 Text info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart info:eu-repo/semantics/updatedVersion 9789587906769 https://dspace7-uexternado.metabuscador.org/handle/001/5226 eng 332 78 259 Defying culture hegemony through teacher generated EFL materials info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 4.0 Internacional (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf Universidad Externado de Colombia Bogotá |

and implementation of contextualised workshops in relation
to students' oral communication and cultural awareness.
This study was carried out at a state-funded school
in Puerto Gaitán, Meta (Colombia) with 36 sixth graders
between 12- 14 years old. This research used the Grounded
Theory (Strauss & Corbin, 1997) and the theoretical and the
methodological triangulation to analyse the information
gathered via three instruments: students’ artefacts, teacher’s
field notes, and video/audio-recordings. The outcomes
revealed that working with contextualised workshops that
embrace local culture with an attractive design fostered
students’ meaningful learning, since the topics, localised
colourful pictures, the examples provided, and the pedagogically
sequenced activities or lessons, help them to
learn and create an effective communication. Similarly, oral
communication was a vehicle to express ideas and feelings
because students employed body movements, acquired vocabulary,
and constructed new concepts when they shared
points of view. Finally, the proposed contextualised workshops
strengthen the students’ cultural awareness through
knowing about their own culture since they reflected on
actions to take care of it. |
