Objectius

The main aim of this research is to explore the use of the video to improve communicative strategies of the future teachers.

This way, students are considered as the object of the analysis and a distinction is made between students as authors of audiovisual production (contrastive grammar capsules, video reviews, linguistic autobiographies on video, etc.) and the protagonist of these (exhibitions, classroom recordings of your performance in practical classes). In other words, the students will be studied as a subject of analysis both in terms of their own activity (through self-confrontation or cross-self-confrontation) and in terms of some aspect of the video they have produced (of which they are the author). This objective is broken down into specific and concrete goals.

Those objectives aim to improve the training of teachers, who will later become practicing professionals, in a crucial aspect of educational intervention, knowing how to develop their students´ oral skills in various language, as well as their digital competence.

It also seeks to improve the involvement of university professional who train teachers and professionals in training in relation to the teaching of oral and digital skills in the multilingual context.
