Technological resources and English language teaching: an action research in the context of a supervised internship

This action research aims at analyzing two didactic interventions conducted in 2015. One of them, conducted with 9th graders, proposed the creation of a comic strip inspired by the Shakespearean play Romeo and Juliet through the website http://bitstrips.com. The other activity, conducted with 10th graders (1st year of high school), proposed the creation of a magazine cover using the Photoshop. In order to base the study, I list the advantages of using the new ICT in favor of the learning, once the insertion of technology may be a manner to transform education into something more significant to students. In order to evaluate the impact of the interventions, two questionnaires were applied: one prior to the activities and the other posterior to them. The results show that the activities appear to have positively influenced the way students perceive the collaborative work, encouraging them to be more active in the teaching-learning process.
