During the last academic year, different teaching methodologies have been applied, many of them of technological nature, in order to mitigate the adverse effects caused by COVID-related confinements. In this paper, we present the implementation of an experience based on peer reviewing in a Telecommunication degree at the University of Málaga. This experience is part of an educational innovation project, and as a useful tool, one of the reasons is that it can be applied in different teaching scenarios. In this work, peer review has been implemented in two semesters of the same subject, belonging to the same degree in two consecutive years, one preCOVID and the other during COVID. Hence, a detailed assessment is provided in order to decipher possible unknowns about the impact that the pandemic may have had on the learning of our students.","PeriodicalId":240185,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The World Conference on Education and Teaching","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129560794","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}

The purpose of this study was to develop an understanding of (1) the level of intercultural sensitivity and EFL interests and (2) whether the degree of intercultural sensitivity (including its subcomponents) and EFL interests differ according to students’ demographic characteristics, including students’ academic majors, duration of learning English, frequency of traveling to other countries, and gender. A total of 1191 college-aged students (558 males, 633 females) participated in this study. Participants filled out a battery of questionnaires, including the Intercultural Sensitivity Scale (ISS) and Interest in Foreign Language Scale (IFLS). Results found that the degree of intercultural sensitivity (including its four subcomponents) and EFL interests differ according to certain demographic characteristics.","PeriodicalId":240185,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The World Conference on Education and Teaching","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115166397","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}
