- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoTeaching strategies to develop the writing skil(Universidad de Guayaquil. Facultad de Filosofía, Letras y Ciencias de la Educación., 2016) Tacuri Hidalgo, Jenny; Fernandez Villegas, Miriam; Torres Vivar, LarryThis project consists of four chapters. The themes is: Teaching strategies to develop the writing skill, the proposal of this Project is design a handbook with practical activities to motivate the students of eight year of basic education at Republica de Alemania public high school of the Canton Naranjal, Province of Guayas to develop the writing skill. Diagnostic tests regarding strategies used by teachers during class have been previously performed on students during preliminary field research at the institution. Weaknesses were detected in the student’s abilities in the English subject. This was especially the case with their writing skills, and their interest in it. They also had very little knowledge of basic vocabulary, due to a lack of innovative strategies, which led to a lack of motivation. Although they were able to pronounce simple words in English, the students had a hard time writing them. This is because pronunciation is very different from writing which is why these students were unable to express their ideas in the form of writing. There are not enough teaching materials.We proceeded to take a sample of 44 students from the eighth grade year and then collect bibliographic information of theories related to the topic. We decided to design a manual with activities that will motivate the student to work on their writing skills. Writing skills is one of the most difficult skills in the English language and mastering it does not only consist of students copying a text in a mechanical manner, it also consists of one being able to express themselves through writing. This is the purpose of the proposal. The authorities of the school, the teachers, parents, as well as the students are supportive of achieving the same goal. With this proposal we will be contributing to education as a greater understanding of the English language will be achieved.
