Evaluación de la expresión oral en inglés en la Educación Superior cubana
Resumen
Objetivo: Este artículo describe una serie de tareas y una escala analítica para la evaluación de la producción e interacción oral en inglés.
Métodos: Para lograr este objetivo se emplearon métodos tanto del nivel teórico como empírico, así como, métodos mixtos que combinan elementos de los paradigamas cualitativos y cuantatitativos.
Resultados: Como principal resultado, se obtuvo una propuesta de tarea para evaluar la expresión oral que incluye tanto la producción como la interacción oral. Asimismo, se elaboró una escala analítica de calificación, basada en los descriptores del Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las Lenguas y adaptada al contexto cubano.
Conclusiones: Este trabajo ha demostrado que el desarrollo de una escala de calificación es un proceso que comprende una profunda revisión de la literatura especializada, varias rondas de revisiones y reformulaciones hasta obtener un producto final de alta calidad. Igualmente, ha abierto un camino en el desarrollo de escalas de evaluación y exámenes en Cuba basado en el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las Lenguas.
