    Del simulacro a la realidad: mejora del rendimiento de los estudiantes ante el TFM a través de un proyecto de innovación docente
    (Universidad de Murcia, 2019) Fidalgo, Camino; Collado, Silvia; Senís, Juan
    Master’s Thesis (TFM) is a difficult task for Master students. They face the writing and oral examination with anxiety, low levels of self-efficacy and a general lack of the necessary competencies for its correct execution. Our study reflects the results of a teaching innovation project aimed at reducing students’ anxiety and increasing their self-efficacy to face their TFM. Five theoretical-practical seminars were designed to improve student’s competences related to academic-scientific skills, both oral and writing ones. Through a pre-post experimental procedure, we evaluated students’ self-efficacy and levels of anxiety towards their TFM. In addition, students’ performance has been examined through a simulation of TFM and its subsequent oral defense. Our results show statistically significant differences between pre and post-intervention in all the aspects evaluated in the program. On one hand, participants obtained in their TFM when compared with the students of previous years which did not take part in this project. On the other hand, participants were more successful in completing their TFM and showed lower levels of anxiety after taking the seminars

    Desarrollo de la oralidad en la Educación Secundaria
    (Universidad de Zaragoza, Asociación Universitaria de Formación del Profesorado (AUFOP), 1998) Trigo Cutiño, José Manuel
    Exponemos algunas ideas sobre la importancia que tiene para el adolescente el dominio del lenguaje oral -comprensión y expresión- en orden a la adquisición de la competencia comunicativa que, sin duda, constituye un predictor significativo tanto en el éxito de la escolarización como en los diversos ámbitos sociales. Nos fundamentamos para ello en el Diseño Curricular Base para la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, del MEC y también aportamos algunos conceptos, junto con una escala de observación para evaluar el aprendizaje de la lengua oral, del Diseño Curricular de Lengua Española que, con motivo de la Reforma, emitió la Junta de Andalucía. Insistimos en la necesidad de eliminar el predominio casi absoluto de las prácticas escritas en la enseñanza de la lengua y de atender programada y sistemáticamente al desarrollo de la oralidad.

    Estudio contrastivo de las competencias orales en las aplicaciones móviles (apps) para el estudio del Francés Lengua Extranjera (FLE).
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021) Arévalo Benito, Mª José; Aldama Epelde, Arrate
    The purpose of this article is to establish a comparative analysis of four mobile applications (apps) designed to acquire French as a Foreign Language (FFL). Two of them are aimed at a general public where French is one of the languages offered: Bussu and Duolingo. The other two were created exclusively for FLE learning: Le Bon Mot and Français Premiers Pas. The bibliographical review allows us to affirm that autonomy and simplicity are assets of the use of apps, while the repetitive side remains a constraint. We will then focus on the study of the exercises proposed in the selected apps with regard to the oral skills of comprehension and expression. Our study comes to the conclusion that, even if comprehension skills are quite well developed, expression skills could be improved to make these apps efficient tools.
