After investigating some theories related to children’s language development, this methodology was administered to a group of 14 children from a kindergarten level in 8 sessions over a period of two months. This method focused on the improvement of vocabulary through graphic organizers along with other child-appropriate activities such as: songs, stories, games, chants, rhymes, mother goose, crafts and role plays. This study is based on the idea that graphic organizers are effective tools that help young children make connections in order to store and retrieve new information. The results during the eight sessions and in the post-test showed the positive effects of graphic organizers supported by Brain-Based Learning Theory; therefore, it is considered an alternative approach to teach English vocabulary in an EFL classroom especially to kindergarten students.Item Application of the suggestopedia method in the 5° of basic education in the San Pedro Nolasco primary school(2011) Rivera, María Teresa; Verdesoto, Paulina; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaItem Connecting myself with the English World through e-pals(2005) Timbe Castro, Lucy Cecilia; Matute Calle, Brenda Eulalia; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaItem Delimitación del perfil y funciones de la secretaria ejecutiva moderna(2003) Tigre Pañi, Lurdes Asunción; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaItem Developing ninth graders’ speaking skills through games for large classes(2014) Segarra Coyago, Mélida Piedad; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaThis thesis deals with the usage of games in English language teaching in large classes and their influence on speaking skills.

It is very interesting to read about how critical thinking strategies can help students and teachers in their academic lives. One main reason of why critical thought is important is that it lets the student think by him/herself, to be creative by giving an answer that is original and practical, and it allows the student to solve any puzzling situation, regardless of how many times the student fails. In the long term, it creates positive learning experiences and the sense of achievement grows as well as the students’ self-esteem. This outcome is possible when the teacher and parents provide the children with an appropriate environment. Each time the child talks to a grown up, the conversation should be taken seriously and should enrich the child’s opinion about the given topic. The use of critical thinking skills is a tool that can form a solid foundation of opinions and ideas in the students, which can enable them to “think out of the box”.

The participants were 20 first-level students at the morning schedule of the Software Development Major. This quasi-experimental research design used mixed methods for data collection. In order to collect qualitative data, two questionnaires were administered to determine the degree of interest in learning technical English before the intervention and observational field notes were taken during the application of the manual. The quantitative data were collected from a pre-test to determine their level of vocabulary knowledge, and a posttest after the application of the handbook to find out whether the students had made some progress. The data were calculated through the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 24). The results of the research demonstrate that students increased their vocabulary knowledge after applying an ESP handbook that was created for the Software Development Major.Item Estrategias para la implementación del trabajo en equipo en la empresa(2003) Pesántez Vimos, María Dolores; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaItem Estudio de la actual estructura orgánica del nivel asesor de la Ilustre Municipalidad de Cuenca en la parte administrativa(2007) Vivar O., Alexandra; Astudillo Neira, CatalinaItem Games in efl classrooms(1999) Triviño Pezo, Verónica; Astudillo Neira, Catalina
