The Impact Of A Pedagogical Intervention To Enhance The Communicative Skills Of 7th-Grade Students At The Filadelfia School, Colombia (2021-2022)

Abstract

This research used a quasi-experimental, explanatory, and longitudinal design to examine the effects of the pedagogical strategy known as Tenemos Potencial (We Have Potential) on the development of meaningful learning, reading, narrative writing, interpretive skills, and critical thinking skills in a sample of 40 seventh-grade boys and girls. The participants were assigned to two different groups, namely the experimental group and the control group. The findings showed a favorable influence on all factors assessed, increasing comprehension, cohesive articulation of ideas, and discretionary evaluation. Despite certain limitations, such as the lack of consistent control over variables and small sample size, the results of this study are of significant value to the field of education and shed light on the advantages of pedagogical interventions in strengthening communicative competencies, providing a basis for further research and the development of impactful educational initiatives.
