Unit 2 - Phase 3 - Proposal of an action plan - Action Plan

What is the problem you want to address? I would like to "Analyze the impact of students being free to select and bring into the classroom visual material of their interests (short-films) to foster classroom debating." What outcome do you hope to achieve with this project? I would like to be able to offer evidence to the fact that letting students bring into the classroom learning tools of their preference fosters students' interest to participate, debate, discuss and create around language learning. Context of the Problem What evidence do you have that there is something that needs changing in your locus of control?

My pedagogical mediations as an English teacher and student + master degree expectations

In my short-term experience as a EFL student and teacher in virtual and presential environments I have had the chance to experiment diverse pedagogical mediations, and here below I would try to summarize some significant ones.
