Resumen

Uno de los principales retos de la Educación es que los alumnos aprendan a aprender por sí mismos. La lectura y la escritura pueden ser potentes herramientas para conseguir este objetivo. Por ello, en este estudio hemos diseñado y evaluado un programa de intervención en el que se enseñaba a los alumnos a realizar síntesis escritas a partir de la lectura de varios textos en la asignatura de Conocimiento del Medio. Se utilizó un diseño cuasiexperimental pre-post con un grupo cuasi control. Participaron 32 estudiantes de dos grupos de 6° de Primaria y sus respectivas tutoras. Los resultados mostraron que los alumnos a los que se aplicó el programa realizaron mejores productos escritos y utilizaron más procedimientos de lectura y escritura durante la realización de tareas de síntesis que aquéllos que no recibieron intervención. Además, la tutora que aplicó el programa lo valoró de forma muy positiva.

Abstract

One of the main challenges of Education is that students learn to learn for themselves. Reading and writing can be powerful tools to achieve this goal. Therefore, in this study we designed and evaluated an intervention programme that taught students to make written synthesis from reading some texts on the subject of Environmental Knowledge. We used a quasi-experimental pre-post design with a quasi-control group. Thirty-two students from two different groups of 6th grade and their class teacher participated in the study. The results showed that students who participated in the programme performed better products and used more reading and writing procedures during synthesis tasks than those from the quasi-control group. In addition, the class teacher who implemented the programme evaluated it very positively.
