Thirty-five students, divided into two groups – Content-and-language-integratedlearning (CLIL) vs. English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL), were asked about their experience with oral presentations, received theoretical and practical training in how to make good oral presentations, were engaged in tasks in which they had to perform an oral presentation in English, evaluate their peers’ and own presentations, and eventually assessed the whole educational experience. An onset and an offset questionnaire were administered at the beginning and at the end of the innovation experience. The offset questionnaire results indicated that in comparison with the significant gains reported by EFL students, CLIL students did not perceive that their English language skills had improved after the oral presentation training, which suggests that CLIL lessons, in contrast to EFL settings, may be focused on content to the detriment of the language component.

Treinta y cinco estudiantes divididos en dos grupos –Aprendizaje-integrado-de-contenido-y-lengua-extranjera (AICLE) e Inglés-como-lengua-extranjera (ILE) fueron encuestados sobre su experiencia con esta herramienta de aprendizaje, recibieron formación teórica y práctica sobre cómo hacer una buena presentación oral en inglés, realizaron tareas en las que tenían que llevar a cabo una presentación oral en inglés, que era juzgada tanto por ellos mismos como por el resto de compañeros, y por último evaluaron la experiencia educativa. Se administraron dos cuestionarios, uno al inicio de la experiencia de innovación educativa y otro al final. El análisis de las respuestas obtenidas a través del cuestionario final demostró que, en comparación con las ganancias significativas percibidas por los estudiantes ILE, el alumnado AICLE no percibía que sus habilidades en lengua inglesa hubieran mejorado después del tratamiento con presentaciones orales, lo que sugiere que quizá las clases AICLE, en contraste con las de ILE, se centran principalmente en el contenido y se olvidan considerablemente del componente lingüístico. En consecuencia, hacemos una llamada a una mejor integración del contenido y la lengua y al uso de técnicas de atención a la forma en los contextos AICLE en la universidad.Universidad de Alcalá.
