Abstract

¿El objetivo principal de esta investigación-acción era identificar el impacto del entrenamiento de habilidades de pensamiento crítico en contextos de enseñanza-aprendizaje del idioma Inglés en un grupo de estudiantes de octavo grado de tres colegios públicos en Colombia. Noventa y tres estudiantes de las Instituciones Lorenza Villegas de Santos en Medellín, Francisco Manzanera Henríquez en Girardot y Kilometro Doce en Montería participaron en el estudio. Después de un análisis de necesidades inicial se detectó dificultades de los estudiantes en el desempeño de habilidades tales como razonamiento, solución de problemas, toma de decisión y formulación de conclusiones. Los investigadores respondieron a esta situación implementando un plan de entrenamiento que consistió en tres fases. Primero, un perfil de pensamiento crítico cuyo objetivo era medir el nivel de entrada de las habilidades de pensamiento crítico. Segundo, una fase de entrenamiento en pensamiento crítico el cual consistió en la implementación de planes de clase incorporando estrategias y tareas basadas en la Taxonomía de Bloom. Tercero, la etapa de verificación de pensamiento crítico que consistía en verificar el impacto del entrenamiento. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de pruebas, artefactos, notas y un cuestionario aplicado a los estudiantes. Los resultados mostraron un progreso en términos de trabajo colaborativo, competencias en Inglés como lengua extranjera y desarrollo de pensamiento crítico después de implementar el plan de entrenamiento propuesto en la investigación.¿

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
