Le présent travail est encadré dans le domaine de la linguistique appliquée de l'espagnol comme langue étrangère (ELE), et plus spécifiquement dans l'enseignement du genre grammatical en ELE. Notre intérêt en tant que enseignants c’est de pouvoir établir une méthode fiable selon les critères du Plan curricular de l'Institut Cervantès et la technique du consciousness-raising, ainsi que élaborer des activités destinées à l'enseignement du genre grammatical dans la classe d’ELE. L'enseignement d'ELE au Québec suit les mêmes méthodes qu'en Europe. En ce qui concerne l'enseignement du genre grammatical, les études consultées ratifient le manque d'instruction pertinente à propos du genre grammatical, ainsi que la difficulté dans la concordance même dans des niveaux avancés. Cependant, l'analyse de manuels d'ELE utilisés dans les diverses institutions de Montréal permet de conclure que ceux-ci ne suivent pas les règles établies par le Plan curricular en ce qui concerne l'enseignement du genre. Pour vérifier ces faits un travail de champ a été mis en place avec 84 étudiants et étudiantes de six institutions de Montréal pendant deux mois et deux semaines. Les résultats de la recherche et l'analyse d'erreurs nous montrent qu’il y a des problèmes avec le genre grammatical chez les étudiants de niveau intermédiaire et que les erreurs ne disparaissent pas avec les activités de renfort créées. Il est donc nécessaire d’adopter une méthode plus appropriée à l'apprentissage du genre grammatical dans une classe d’ELE et la présence du professeur pour la présenter. En effet, l'exécution d'activités créées n'est pas suffisant, car bien que les résultats montrent un léger progrès dans le cas du groupe B, ou d’expérience, en comparaison au groupe A, ou de control, on a constaté qu’une instruction formelle aurait entrainé un meilleur et plus complet apprentissage du genre grammatical dans le cas de nos étudiants; de là la nécessité d'établir une méthode fiable pour son enseignement. / The present work is part of the applied linguistics area; it particularly focuses on the methodology of teaching the grammatical gender in TSFL. Our interest as a teacher is to put together a reliable method, under the criteria of the Plan curricular of the Cervantes Institute and the technique of the consciousness-raising, also to elaborate activities for the teaching of the grammatical gender in Spanish as a Foreign Language SFL class. SFL is thought in Quebec with the same methods as those used in Europe. In regards to the grammatical gender, the consulted studies show the lack of pertinent instruction of the grammatical gender, as well as the difficulty in the assignment of the concordance in advanced levels. The analysis of SFL's manuals used in the diverse institutions of Montreal confirms that they do not follow the guidelines established by the Plan curricular. To verify these facts a two months and two weeks long fieldwork was carried out with 84 students. The students came from six different institutions of Montreal and were, therefore, divided in groups. The research’s results and the Errors’ Analysis confirm the existence of the grammatical gender problems in the students of intermediate level. Furthermore, the research shows that these mistakes do not disappear with reinforcement activities designed. In fact, it is necessary to adopt a method specifically adjusted to the learning of the grammatical gender in a SFL's class. Just as the method, the teacher should take a specific posture when teaching the grammatical gender. As shown by the results of the investigation, the execution of activities is not sufficient. The data demonstrate that the group B - categorized as of experience- has a slight progress in comparison to group A - control. Such results indicate that the formal instruction would have led to a better and more complete learning of the grammatical gender, hence the need to gather a reliable method of teaching. / El presente trabajo se enmarca dentro de la lingüística aplicada, y más específicamente dentro de la enseñanza del género gramatical en ELE. Nuestro interés como docente es poder armar un método confiable, bajo los criterios del Plan curricular del Instituto Cervantes y la técnica del consciousness-raising, y elaborar actividades para la enseñanza del género en clase de ELE. La enseñanza de ELE en Quebec sigue los mismos métodos que en Europa. En cuanto a la enseñanza del género gramatical, los estudios consultados muestran tanto la falta de instrucción pertinente sobre el género gramatical, como la dificultad en la asignación de la concordancia en niveles avanzados. El análisis de manuales de ELE utilizados en las diversas instituciones de Montreal confirma que no siguen las pautas establecidas por el Plan curricular. Para comprobar estos hechos se llevó a cabo un trabajo de campo con 84 estudiantes, divididos en grupos, de seis instituciones de Montreal durante dos meses y dos semanas. Los resultados de la investigación y el análisis de errores nos muestran que existen problemas de género gramatical en los estudiantes de nivel intermedio y que los errores no desaparecen solo con las actividades de refuerzo diseñadas, es necesario un método más adecuado para el aprendizaje del género gramatical en clase de ELE y la figura del profesor para presentarlo. En efecto, la ejecución de las actividades no es suficiente, pues aunque los resultados del grupo B o de experiencia exhiben un ligero progreso en comparación a los del grupo A o de control, se constata que la instrucción formal hubiera conducido a un mejor y más completo aprendizaje del género gramatical por parte de los estudiantes de la muestra; de ahí la necesidad de armar un método confiable para su enseñanza.

La presente tesis doctoral aborda los usos de se, su tratamiento en los diccionarios románicos actuales y su representación en un diccionario de aprendizaje de español como lengua extranjera. Su objetivo principal es proponer un modelo de representación para verbos que muestren estos usos. Para ello, se atenderán los siguientes aspectos:  El estado de la cuestión tanto en los estudios de gramática (capítulo 2) como en los lexicográficos (capítulo 3).  La representación de los usos pronominales en los diccionarios románicos actuales, en concreto los de aprendizaje de segunda lengua (capítulo 4).  El análisis sistemático de los usos de se en el corpus, enfocado desde la perspectiva de la Theory of Norms and Exploitations y el Corpus Pattern Analysis de Hanks (2004) (capítulos 5 y 6).  La elaboración de un modelo de entrada lexicográfica verbal que contenga usos con se para un diccionario de ELE (capítulo 7). Los resultados de la tesis son principalmente la elaboración de una base de datos sobre verbos con usos pronominales (capítulo 6, SCPA) y de un prototipo de 20 entradas lexicográficas de los mismos verbos analizados con CPA (capítulo 7). / The present Ph.D. thesis studied the uses of the Spanish particle se, its treatment by current romance dictionaries and its representation in a dictionary for learners of Spanish as a foreign language. The main objective is to propose a model for the representation of the verbs that present the use of se. For this, the following aspects will be analysed:  The review of related work in grammar studies (chapter 2) as well as lexicography (chapter 3).  The representation of pronominal uses in the current romance dictionaries, particularly in those for learners of Spanish as a second language (chapter 4).  The systematic analysis of se in corpora from the perspective of Hanks’ (2004) theory of Norms and Exploitations and Corpus Patterns Analysis (chapter 5 and 6).  The elaboration of a model of a verbal lexical entry for a dictionary of Spanish as a second language containing uses of se (chapter 7). The results of the thesis are mainly the elaboration of a database on Spanish pronominal verbs (chapter 6, Spanish CPA) and of a prototype of 20 lexical entries with the same verbs analysed with CPA (chapter 7).

Considering changes in the point of view of the subject in one of the versions, how do these changes happen and which are the relationships established through meaningful effect? 3. In which ways can the process of rewriting the text facilitate the composition of the authorship in schools? 4. How can the point of view of the subject in the different versions, compete to form or reinforce socially fossilized meaning? Background Theories: In order to reach the proposed goals, we consider some theories of statement, specially Bakhtin´s ideas (1929,1979); French Speech Analysis, particularly the third phase, with the contributions of Maingueneau (2001, 2006), Baptista (2005), Possenti (2001, 2002) and Authier-Revuz (1998, 2004). Moreover, we have also based our ideas on Applied Linguistics, through the works of Coracini (1999, 2001) and Abaurre, Fiad e Mayrink-Sabinson (2001). Methodology: Our selected corpus presents sixty written productions with three different versions each, resulting in an amount of one hundred and eighty argumentative texts in Spanish Language. Those texts were written by the undergraduate students of Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language of the Federal University of Ceará in Brazil. This research was carried on during the second term of 2006 as an assignment of the class of Comprehension and Production of Texts in Spanish Language. The methodology used consisted on a contrastive analysis of the three different versions of each text in the corpus. The objective was to identify in which ways the subject, when taking the position of author, had some attitudes such as: allow other interlocutors to manifest speech or keep the distance from the text. Results: The result of the analysis has shown that the process of writing the text is an efficient methodology to facilitate the composition of the authorship in school texts. This happens because this process allows the subject to interfere and reflect about the text during the writing process. Key Words: Speech Analysis, Applied Linguistics, Spanish as a Foreign Language, Rewriting of a text. / Este trabalho resultou de nossas indagações a respeito da relação existente entre os posicionamentos do sujeito e a instauração da autoria, nas diferentes versões originadas no processo de refacção de textos argumentativos produzidos por estudantes universitários, futuros professores de língua materna e/ou estrangeira. Entre os questionamentos suscitados, visamos responder às seguintes questões: 1. Que tipo de relação se estabelece entre a assunção da autoria nos textos e os diferentes posicionamentos assumidos pelo sujeito durante o processo de refacção textual? 2. Ocorrendo modificações no posicionamento do sujeito, em uma das versões, como se dão essas alterações e quais as relações que se estabelecem em termos de efeito de sentido? 3. De que maneira a refacção empregada no processo de produção de textos em ambiente escolar pode ser facilitadora da assunção da autoria? 4. Como os posicionamentos de cada sujeito-autor, nas diferentes versões, concorrem para instaurar ou reforçar sentidos já socialmente cristalizados? Referencial teórico: Para o alcance dos objetivos propostos, baseamo-nos numa articulação entre as teorias enunciativas, especialmente os postulados de Bakhtin (1929, 1979); a Análise do Discurso Francesa, particularmente na sua terceira fase, com as contribuições de Maingueneau (2001; 2006), Baptista (2005), Possenti (2001, 2002) e Authier-Revuz (1998, 2004) e, ainda, a Lingüística Aplicada, com os trabalhos de Coracini (1999, 2001) e os de Abaurre, Fiad e Mayrink-Sabinson (2001). Metodologia: Selecionamos como corpus sessenta produções escritas, com três versões cada, que totalizaram cento e oitenta textos argumentativos, em língua espanhola, produzidos e recolhidos no curso de graduação em Letras/Espanhol da Universidade Federal do Ceará, no segundo semestre de 2006, durante a disciplina de Compreensão e produção de textos em espanhol. A metodologia empregada consistiu numa análise contrastiva das diferentes versões de cada texto que compõe o corpus, tendo em vista verificarmos de que modo o sujeito ao assumir a autoria realizou determinadas atitudes: dar voz a outros enunciadores e manter distância do próprio texto. Resultados: As análises realizadas permitiram perceber que o processo de refacção pode ser considerado um procedimento metodológico facilitador da assunção da autoria nos textos de escolares, por permitir ao sujeito um espaço de intervenção e reflexão sobre o texto no momento de sua produção.

The main goal consists of investigate how the assessment is an instrument of social representation of multiple dimensions (cognitive, discourse, linguistics, and social). The analysis of the organizational semantics of the lexicon, which is embedded in discourse manifestations, allows for the understanding of assessment as content knowledge. The study addresses the following questions: (1) How do instructors and pre-service teachers view assessment in the pre-service context? (2) Which social representation of assessment emerges in the discourse of instructors and pre-service teachers when asked about assessment? (3) What are the key lexical items of social representation constructed by the participants involved? The analysis is based on the Theory of Social Representation, especially that of Moscovici (1976, 2009) and Jodelet (2001), on the Critical Discourse Studies proposed by Van Dijk (2003, 2008), and on the studies of Coracini (2003), Moita Lopes (2007) and Bordón (2004) in Applied Linguistics. Data were generated by semi-structured interviews and free word association techniques. The methodology employed for data analysis was content analysis, based onBardin’s (2010) propositions. Two teaching environments were considered: face-to-face and distance education. Results indicate that the participants have two perspectives of assessment: (1) as predominantly a verification of learning, based on instruments such as exams, seminars and portfolios; and (2) as a fundamental part of teaching and learning that serves as a “regulator” of the process. However, in the discourse of the participants, the evaluation process is not considered an important mechanism of control and exclusion, which indicates a lack of critical understanding of the sociological and ideological aspects involved in assessment. In broad terms, results indicate that assessment needs to be considered as an important issue in the preparation of pre-service teachers, and new alternatives of assessment should be discussed, studied and implemented. Furthermore, this study contributes to other studies that investigate how language and social representation mutually shape and affect each other. / Este trabalho resultou de nossas indagações a respeito da representação social de professores e tutores sobre a avaliação em um contexto de formação de professores de espanhol como língua estrangeira. O principal objetivo consistiu em investigar como a avaliação constitui-se um objeto de representação social considerando-se suas múltiplas dimensões (cognitiva, discursiva, linguística e social) e como, por meio da análise da organização semântica do léxico, presente nas manifestações discursivas dos sujeitos ao se posicionarem sobre o tema, pode-se mapear o significado construído para a avaliação enquanto objeto de conhecimento. Entre os questionamentos suscitados, visamos responder às seguintes questões: 1. De que forma os professores se posicionam acerca da avaliação num contexto de formação de professores de língua estrangeira? 2. Que representação social sobre a avaliação está presente nas manifestações discursivas dos professores ao se posicionarem sobre o tema? 3. Que itens lexicais, produzidos pelos sujeitos, podem ser tomados como vetores da representação social construída? Para o alcance dos objetivos propostos, baseamo-nos numa articulação entre a Teoria das Representações Sociais, particularmente os postulados de Moscovici (1976, 2009) e Jodelet (2001); os Estudos Críticos do Discurso propostos por van Dijk (2003, 2008), e, ainda, a Linguística Aplicada, com os trabalhos Moita Lopes (2007) e Bordón (2004). Os dados foram gerados por meio da técnica de associação livre de palavras e por entrevistas semiestruturadas. Para a análise dos dados foi empregada a metodologia da análise de conteúdo, de acordo com as proposições de Bardin (2010), considerando-se o exame dos posicionamentos presentes no discurso docente em torno da avaliação, tanto na modalidade presencial quanto na semipresencial de ensino. As análises realizadas evidenciaram que os sujeitos concebem a avaliação em duas direções: 1.como predominantemente circunscrita a uma concepção de avaliação como mera verificação da aprendizagem, centrada na aplicação de instrumentos como provas, seminários e portfólios e 2. como parte fundamental e inerente ao processo de ensino e aprendizagem, cuja função é “regular” esse processo. No entanto, o funcionamento do processo avaliativo como mecanismo de controle e de exclusão não aparece como uma questão importante nos discursos dos sujeitos, ficando ao largo uma compreensão crítica dos fatores ideológicos e sociológicos que perpassam tanto o discurso sobre a avaliação, como as condições em que essa é produzida. Em linhas gerais, o presente estudo oferece relevantes elementos para se pensar alternativas e caminhos para eventuais transformações das práticas de avaliação e sobre sua relevância na formação de futuros professores de línguas, além de fazer avançar a contribuição dos estudos que investigam a relação entre linguagem e representação social, tendo em vista a forma como estas se afetam mutuamente.

Ce travail a pour objet l’étude des procédures linguistiques employées par les enseignants universitaires d’espagnol comme langue étrangère dans la gestion discursive de la relation interpersonnelle avec les élèves. En partant d’une perspective discursive nous postulons que la gestion discursive de la relation interpersonnelle peut être considérée comme la manière dont l´enseignant, en qualité de parlant/producteur (et agent social), gère un ensemble de procédures linguistiques pour établir la relation interpersonnelle avec les élèves dans la salle de classe, en fonction des limites et possibilités qui encadrent son travail dans un espace social et un espace discursif. À partir de cette proposition nous avons déterminé que le sens de la gestion discursive dans le domaine didactique et pédagogique réfère spécifiquement à l'aide que l'enseignant, en sa qualité de compétent et facilitateur de l'apprentissage, fournit aux étudiants. En outre, selon nous, cette aide résulte d’une logique croisée dans laquelle convergent deux principes antinomiques: une hétéronomie et une autonomie discursive. En nous basant sur l’analyse des transcriptions de classes filmées et des entretiens avec les élèves, on montre que les procédures linguistiques employées par les enseignants correspondent au phénomène de la modulation et opèrent à deux niveaux, un micro et un macro fonctionnement. On confirme également que ces procédures se situent dans la logique croisées qui est propre au sens de l’aide. Néanmoins, on constate que la gestion discursive des enseignants qui se situe dans cette logique croisée est problématique dû à la distribution des procédures linguistique et son éventuel contre-sens. / This work is about the the study of linguistic procedures used by university teachers of Spanish as a foreign language in the discursive management of interpersonal relationships with students. Starting from a discursive perspective we argue that the discursive management of interpersonal relationship can be considered as how the teacher as speaker / producer (and social agent) manages a set of linguistic procedures to establish the interpersonal relationship with students in the classroom, based on the limits and possibilities that surround his work in a social and discursive space. From this proposition we determined that the sense of the discoursive management in the didactic and pedagogical domain refers specifically to the help which the teacher, in his capacity as a competent being and as a facilitator of learning, provides to the students. In addition, we believe that this help results from a crossed logic in which converge two contradictory principles: discursive heteronomy and autonomy. Based on our analysis of transcripts of videotaped classes and interviews with students, we show that the procedures used by language teachers correspond to the phenomenon of modulation and operate at two levels, a micro and a macro functioning. We also confirm that these procedures are in a logic which is particular to the sense of help. However, we note that the discursive management of teachers, which is in this logic, is problematic due to the distribution of linguistic procedures and its eventual unproductiveness.

The use of computers is a reality in the contemporary world and is present in several fields of professional activities, including educational environments. For the investigation hereby proposed, we have analyzed three Spanish as a Foreign Language course book series, published from 2001 to 2005 containing activities for online navigation with the presumed goal of leading the student to an immersion process in different Spanish-speaking countries and cultures, by using the Internet. Our research aimed at identifying, in the course books studied, coherence relationships and implications among the following aspects: the technical qualities of the corpus of sites suggested for online tasks, cultural themes developed in the lessons and the level of learning expected in the course books. As a basic methodological tool, we drew comparative charts containing the online navigation activities suggested by the three course books selected and analyzed them considering as reference: (i) a framework for the analysis of the technical qualities of the sites compiled, based on the studies supported by Gibaldi (2003), Alexander and Tate (1999), Tomaél et al. (2004), Ambre et al. (1999), Lázaro (2001), Henderson (2005), Blattmann and Fragoso (2003), Rodrigues (2000) and Araújo (2003); and (ii) a synoptic chart reflecting the Global Assessment Scale and Reference Chart of learning based on the guidelines presented in the Common European Framework of Reference for Foreign Languages (2001). The analyses developed were qualitative and interpretative in nature and suggest that although the online navigation activities proposed were, in gerenal terms, coherent with the cultural themes discussed in each lesson, they do not match the linguistic level expected from the students. In addition to that, the activities indicated in the course books studied do not stimulate the teacher to take on a critical posture while navigating in virtual contexts. The ability to evaluate sites critically must be developed by the teacher who is willing to incorporate online navigation activities in his or her classes; it is important for the teacher to know the basic criteria to consider while analyzing sites and selecting possible online activities for his students in order to be able to use the technology available critically and meaningfully. The thoughtful use of technology by the teacher may contribute to the learning process; otherwise, it may be reduced to the use of one more fashionable resource offered by the modern world. / O uso de informática e das novas tecnologias de comunicação e informação é uma realidade no mundo contemporâneo e está presente nos mais diversos ramos de atividades profissionais, incluindo ambientes educacionais e livros didáticos. Nesta investigação analisamos três Coleções de material didático de língua espanhola para brasileiros, editadas no período de 2001 a 2005, que apresentam atividades de navegação on-line visando, segundo seus autores, a conduzir o aprendiz à submersão, por meio de internet, em culturas de diferentes países que falam a língua espanhola. Buscamos identificar, nos livros didáticos analisados, relações de coerência e implicações entre as qualidades técnicas do corpus de sites sugeridos em tarefas on-line, os temas culturais das lições e o nível de aprendizagem esperado. Como recurso metodológico elaboramos um quadro com os exercícios de navegação on-line propostos nas Coleções selecionadas e utilizamos uma grade de critérios para análise de "qualidades técnicas" de sites, compilados a partir das perspectivas de Gibaldi (2003), Alexander e Tate (1999), Tomaél et al. (2004), Ambre et al. (1999), Lázaro (2001), Henderson (2005), Blattmann e Fragoso (2003), Rodrigues (2000) e Araújo (2003) e um quadro sinóptico com os "Níveis de Referência e Escala Global" de aprendizagem constantes das diretrizes do Quadro Europeu Comum de Referência para as Línguas Estrangeiras. As análises, de base interpretativista e qualitativa, sugerem que, apesar de coerentes com os temas culturais apresentados em cada lição, as propostas de atividades de navegação on-line, em determinados aspectos, não condizem com o nível lingüístico esperado dos aprendizes e usuários desses livros didáticos. Além disso, os guias dos livros didáticos analisados não instrumentalizam o professor a assumir postura crítica diante da utilização de contextos virtuais. O professor deve conhecer critérios de análise das qualidades de fontes digitais ou sites para que possa incorporar atividades de navegação on-line de modo crítico e consciente no que se refere à tecnologia, para que esse uso possa ser mais bem explorado e não se configure apenas como um recurso ou um modismo do mundo moderno. / Mestre em Estudos Linguísticos

Il existe actuellement un nombre considérable d'instruments qui précisent quels sont les principes et les dispositifs propices à la mise en place d'une politique encourageant l'intégration linguistique des migrants adultes en Europe. Cette thèse examine ces outils et elle essaie de montrer leur pertinence dans le cas de la communauté autonome de Cantabrie en Espagne, un territoire qui a vu augmenter sa population étrangère de manière considérable et inhabituelle pendant les premières années de ce siècle. Pour ce faire, un état des lieux des formations linguistiques destinées aux migrants adultes existant dans la région a été établi. Le document qui combine des procédures mixtes de collecte de données a été analysé postérieurement en prenant en compte des variables considérées comme essentielles. Le travail inclut également une série de propositions qui se veulent une invitation à l'adoption d'une approche plurilingue pour aborder la problématique de la formation et de l'intégration linguistiques des migrants adultes. Le destinataire primaire de ce travail est l'ensemble des acteurs de la politique linguistique de la région. Or, cette thèse entend avoir comme destinataires également tous les professionnels qui d'une manière ou d'une autre et sous d'autres latitudes travaillent sur l'intégration linguistique des migrants adultes, particulièrement ceux qui cherchent à améliorer la qualité des dispositifs mis en place ou à concevoir de nouvelles planifications pour des territoires qui sont dépourvus de ces mécanismes. / There is currently a considerable number of instruments that specify the principles and the mechanisms favorable to implement a policy for encouraging linguistic integration of adult migrants in Europe. This thesis examines these tools and tries to show their relevance in the case of the autonomous community of Cantabria in Spain, a region that has seen its foreign population increased dramatically and unusually during the early years of this century. A study on the situation of existing language courses for adults migrants in the region was conducted. The document which combines data collection procedures was subsequently analyzed taking into account a group of variables considered essential. The work also includes a series of proposals that constitue an invitation to adopt a multilingual approach in order to address the issue of linguistic training and integration of adult migrants. The primary recipient of this work is the language policy setters in the region. However, this thesis also intends to have as recipients any professional working in one way or another on the linguistic integration of adult migrants, particularly those seeking to improve the quality of the systems implemented or devising new plans for territories where there is lack of these programmes.

The purpose of this study is to explore and analyse if films, as well as being a possible tool to develop linguistic skills of the students of the upper secondary school, can be the basis to introduce and develop cultural elements and aspects related to the students’ values. A survey was responded by 36 teachers of the Swedish upper secondary school in order to study how film in general, and Pedro Almodóvar’s in particular, is used in the teaching of ELE in order to treat basic values and cultural content. The results show that teachers use film to talk about culture and some basic values, but in general the films are not used in Spanish classes very often. / El objetivo de este trabajo es investigar si el cine además de ser una posible herramienta para desarrollar los contenidos lingüísticos de los alumnos del nivel de bachillerato puede ser la base para introducir y desarrollar los elementos culturales y aspectos relacionados con los principios básicos de los alumnos. A través de la entrevista realizada a los profesores de español de los institutos suecos hemos estudiado si el cine en general y las películas de Pedro Almodóvar en particular es usado en la enseñanza de ELE con el propósito de tratar los valores básicos y los contenidos culturales. Los resultados demuestran que se trabaja con el cine para hablar sobre la cultura y algunos valores básicos, pero en general no se usa las películas en las clases de español con mucha frecuencia.

Este estudio presenta los resultados de una investigación que examina la efectividad del enfoque léxico como forma de instrucción explícita sobre la adquisición de la competencia léxica en aprendices de español como lengua extranjera. El estudio esta guiado por dos preguntas de investigación. La primera pregunta de investigación (PI 1) examina el impacto del enfoque léxico sobre la adquisición de la competencia léxica. La segunda pregunta de investigación (PI 2) examina si la efectividad del enfoque léxico en el grupo de alumnos examinados viene condicionada por las creencias de los participantes acerca de las estrategias empleadas en dicho método. La aplicación del enfoque léxico se basó en una propuesta pedagógica consistente en una unidad didáctica de creación propia. Se analizaron los datos obtenidos tanto de forma cuantitativa como cualitativa. Los resultados confirmaron empíricamente la validez del enfoque léxico como principio metodológico para adquirir la competencia léxica. Del mismo modo, se encontró una relación entre las creencias de los participantes y las estrategias de aprendizaje empleadas. / This paper reports the results of a study that examined the effectiveness of the lexical approach as a form of explicit instruction in relation to the acquisition of lexical competence in learners of Spanish as a foreign language. The study was guided by two research questions. The first question aimed to examine the impact of the lexical approach with regard to the lexical competence. The second question asked whether the effectiveness of the lexical approach was conditioned by the learner’s beliefs regarding the learning strategies inherent to the lexical approach. The lexical approach was applied by means of a lesson plan based on a self-created design. The data obtained was analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The results obtained empirically confirm the validity of the lexical approach as a methodological principle suitable for the teaching of lexical competence. Similarly, a relationship was found between the learner’s beliefs and the learning strategies they employed.
