For this reason, the purpose of this research was to detect the role of an L3 in the output of an L2. In order to find an answer, students who have English as L2 and were studying a third language (German and Korean) were submitted to three different speaking and writing exercises to identify crosslinguistic syntactic and phonological influences of their L3s due to typological closeness. The results were obtained by making use of an observation sheet and checklists; the data is presented on graphs and descriptive paragraphs. At the end of the research, it was shown that close languages (typologically speaking) create more conflicts in pronunciation for multilingual speakers than distant languages.

To do this, an approaching analysis of an eight-students A2 level group dealing with pronunciation problems was carried out. After that, an interview for collecting data about the most concurrent pronunciation problems appeared in the course. Valuable information was displayed to analyze the most common problems for pronunciation in A2 students. After interpreting the results, the pronunciation of regular verbs in the past tense was the most difficult problem for them. A specific strategy to cover students’ needs was designed. Since remote teaching conveys the use of technology and flipped learning is an option for the equipment available, the implementation of a video flipped learning task was designed. With the use of technology (authoring tools and mobile Apps), flipped learning, programmed instructional design students showed improvement in the pronunciation of regular verbs in the past tense. Finally, it is concluded that this innovative strategy can effectively be reproduced for developing some other learning content in remote teaching.","PeriodicalId":235847,"journal":{"name":"Revista Lengua y Cultura","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130229311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was found that beginning students are susceptible to get distracted and not following school rules, practices that make teaching difficult. Students with prior knowledge, and from higher levels, are more focused on learning the language, but both levels need to exercise their long-term memory. The eclectic approach is recommended for beginning students, and the communicative approach, for advanced students. It is recommended that teachers carry out diagnoses to characterize the students and based on these update their methods and materials; group management skills, and use lesson planning and log books for better teaching practice in English.","PeriodicalId":235847,"journal":{"name":"Revista Lengua y Cultura","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114374206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Así, el alumno interactúa y es capaz de comunicarse de forma eficiente en situaciones reales. No obstante, el apartado metafórico en el aprendizaje es poco explorado por los profesores de lenguas, en muchos casos. Actualmente, estudios, como los de Acquaroni (2008), Lamartí (2011) y Domínguez (2020), evidencian que la metáfora juega un papel más significativo del que se tiene contemplado. Aunado a esto, el papel de la cultura en la metáfora y los procesos cognitivos son elementos relevantes y cruciales que deberían incluirse en la enseñanza de lenguas. De ahí, la importancia de este trabajo en donde se analiza el papel de la cultura y la sociedad en los procesos metafóricos y el aprendizaje del idioma inglés. Esta investigación con enfoque cualitativo y con alcance descriptivo muestra resultados que sustentan la hipótesis de que existen elementos socioculturales en la L1 que generan, o inhiben, la interferencia lingüística, y se evidencian en el desarrollo de la competencia metafórica en L2. Los cambios en los contextos sociolingüísticos, las nuevas técnicas de enseñanza, así como sus enfoques, y el acercamiento que los alumnos tienen con distintos elementos lingüísticos ajenos a su propia lengua, predicen el surgimiento de fenómenos cognitivos que pueden dar pie a nuevas estrategias en el uso de las metáforas y, según Lakoff y Johnson (2003), muchas de las actividades diarias (discutir, resolver problemas, organizar el tiempo, etcétera) son metáforas en su naturaleza. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":235847,"journal":{"name":"Revista Lengua y Cultura","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126812511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identity construction is not an isolated process. Instead, it is the result of a continuous and social process that embraces a variety of factors and the tension of diverse forces, struggles, and adjustments that the individual deals with. In the last two decades, an increasing number of qualitative studies focused on EFL teachers’ professional identity have appeared. To identify how professional identity is constructed, it must be understood as a product of discourse, practice, and relationships. Moreover, identity is developed through the stories (narratives) describing life encounters that have shaped who they are as teachers. Both discourse and narratives help teachers define and redefine themselves as professionals through the meaning they give to their lived experiences. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to address discourse and narratives as two research perspectives to investigate EFL pre-service teachers’ professional identity. First, the link between qualitative and identity studies is presented. Then, discourse analysis and narratives as methodological alternatives are introduced. Finally, implications and reflections for teacher education are discussed.","PeriodicalId":235847,"journal":{"name":"Revista Lengua y Cultura","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117222917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
