Salgado Salazar, Ana MilenaSierra Cogollo, Andrea Estefania2025-06-262025-06-262025-06-25https://repositorio.unicordoba.edu.co/handle/ucordoba/9207The main purpose of this internship was to strengthen the professional development of the future English teacher, through direct immersion in a real teaching environment, where it was possible to apply the theoretical and methodological knowledge acquired throughout the academic training. This allowed the teacher trainee not only to put into practice effective didactic strategies, but also to consolidate the essential pedagogical skills for the teaching practice. To carry out this teaching-learning process, I decided to focus on the Project-Based Learning (PBL) methodology with the aim of promoting activism and developing critical reading skills among students. For example, the Narrative activity which consisted on three big stages: First, the previous activity before the project, the second one that took place during the project and last the post narrative, after the project. I also worked on the design and implementation of projects that would allow students to address relevant social issues using English as a tool for investigation, reflection, and action. In addition, I focused on three key areas: scaffolding learning strategies, developing critical awareness, and planning activities centered on youth activism.ABSTRACT ............................... 5INTRODUCTION ............................................ 61.
