(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Calero Silva, Vanessa; Gutiérrez Estrada, Laura Alejandra; Arenas Reyes, Julio Cesar
The hypothesis established by the group was that according to the standardized national testing system, students at 3rd grade group under scored in the Instituto Técnico Comercial e Industrial Providencia’s percentage based on the Pruebas Saber 2016 in their reading comprehension in the mother tongue (Spanish), and that the same presumably happens in their foreign language (English). Based on this, the objective is set, which is to look for an answer of the hypothesis presented. This objective is to test whether the problems that students have in their mother tongue in the reading comprehension are resembled in their foreign language. In addition, the group created 3 tests to be applied in three different moments, in all the three groups of third grade; firstly, because of the problems shown in the Pruebas Saber, and secondly, to basically know if there is a correlation between the difficulties in both languages.
