Description
Summary:ABSTRACT: This action research project explores the integration of English macro skills at Institución Educativa Inem José Félix de Restrepo in Poblado, Medellín. The project was carried out with students from eighth grade section nine. The aim of the project was to integrate language macro skills through some collaborative learning strategies (CLS) focused on students’ production. The data collection tools used included a formal interview with the cooperating teacher, a student questionnaire and student/researcher observations which were recorded in a field journal. Data was analyzed, categorized, and validated by using a triangulation method. The results show that implementing CLS facilitated the integration of English macro skills and students’ production.
