dc.description.abstracteng: This investigation explores Problem -Based Learning as a model to promote persuasive writing. The purpose was to analyze how pre-service English language teachers with an upper intermediate level could achieve an understanding of controversial topics, and proposed, in writing, contextualized and well-structured solutions. The data gathered to identify the problem suggest that there are areas for continued development in writing. During the diagnostic stage, it was identified that participants did well in summarizing, analyzing, and interpreting but required guidance and practice in taking a stand, and having their academic voices heard. The study adopted an action research methodology which implied the design of workshops to appraise its appropriateness and give an account of the processes and outcomes evidenced in participants’ written products. The pedagogical intervention consisted on the implementation of six workshops based on issues related to the participants’ context. Then, Problem-based learning was selected as the approach to enhance persuasive writing since it uses issues for the analysis, integration, and adaptation of new knowledge, and it provides different types of instruction that help students develop their communicative skills (Barrows, 1996). This action stage was evaluated through different instruments such as a teacher’s journal, a self-assessment form, and a persuasive writing rubric to measure some strategies. The main findings of this study displayed positive results in terms of students’ effective writing performance, effectiveness of the use of Problem-Based Learning, and participants’ positive perceptions towards writing. Additionally, learners acquired pre-writing and writing strategies that contributed to improve their writing performance.eng
dc.description.abstractspa: Esta investigación explora el Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas como un modelo para promover la escritura persuasiva. El propósito de este estudio es analizar la manera como profesores en formación con un nivel superior-intermedio de inglés pueden alcanzar un entendimiento de temas controversiales y proponer soluciones escritas, contextualizadas y bien estructuradas. La información obtenida para identificar el problema sugiere que existen áreas de desarrollo continuo en escritura. Durante la fase diagnóstica, se identificó que los participantes se desempeñaban bien resumiendo, analizando, e interpretando información, pero requerían orientación y práctica para tomar una posición y hacer que sus voces académicas fuesen escuchadas. El estudio adoptó la metodología de investigación acción, la cual implicaba diseñar talleres para evaluar su conveniencia y dar cuenta de los procesos y resultados evidenciados en los productos escritos de los participantes. La intervención pedagógica consistió en la implementación de seis talleres basados en problemas relacionados con el contexto de los participantes. Port al motivo, el Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas fue la metodología seleccionada para promover la escritura persuasiva debido a que se adoptan problemáticas para el análisis, integración, y adaptación de nuevo conocimiento, y provee diferentes tipos de instrucción que ayuda a los estudiantes a desarrollar sus habilidades de competencia comunicativa (Barrows, 1996). La fase de acción fue evaluada a través de diferentes instrumentos tales como un diario docente, un formato de autoevaluación, y una rúbrica de escritura persuasiva. Los hallazgos más importantes de este estudio demuestran resultados positivos en términos del desempeño efectivo en escritura, efectividad en la implementación del Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas, y en las percepciones positivas de los participantes en cuanto a la escritura. Adicionalmente, los aprendices adquirieron estrategias que contribuyeron a mejorar su desempeño escrito.spa
