    (2023-08-02) Pardo Cavadia, Juan; Pugliese De González, Gabriella
    In the teaching of English process, there are modalities to create efficient and dynamic classes for students who are learning English as a Foreign Language, that allow the proper understanding and acquisition of knowledge. The teaching of English in Colombia, mostly in public schools, has not been an easy and dynamic task. The problem of teaching English is that it is individual in most cases and for this reason it is necessary to implement new ways of teaching English in a complete and clear way, so cooperative learning is shown as an effective way. Implementing cooperative learning involves careful planning and structuring of group activities. Teachers must create a supportive classroom environment and establish clear expectations for participation, accountability, and mutual respect. Group formation should be strategic, considering factors such as students' abilities, diversity, and social dynamics. Moreover, instructors play a crucial role in facilitating discussions, providing guidance, and monitoring group dynamics to ensure an equitable and inclusive learning experience for all students. Cooperative learning not only works as a group dynamic because it is demonstrated throughout this experience that it is considered a necessary tool to foster oral production in students.

    This report describes the benefits of cooperation in improving speaking skills in upper-intermediate and intermediate students aged 10 to 16 as part of the Bilingualism for Peace program at Cristobal Colon, a public school in Monteria, Cordoba. The problem addressed is that the students had different and low English-speaking skills. To face this, the purpose of the internship was to help students improve their English-speaking skills with confidence trying to reduce the differences in levels that existed in the students. This was done using fun cooperative methods that promoted learning and personal growth. It included activities like group discussions, peer feedback, scaffolding, roleplay, and information gaps activities, to keep students motivated. Cooperative learning encourages small group collaboration, active communication, and peer support. This approach creates an environment in which students participate in meaningful conversations, regularly practicing their speaking skills on real-world tasks. The findings show that this method improves speaking skills and increases motivation, self-confidence, and language use in authentic contexts, in line with the program's goal of integrating language learning with peace-building values while promoting creativity and critical thinking.
