Desarrollo de la expresión oral mediante recursos musicales para fortalecer el uso del idioma kichwa

Abstract

This research was conducted to address the lack of oral expression of the Kichwa language among students at the Luis Ulpiano de la Torre Bilingual Intercultural Community Center. The goal was to improve language skills, comprehension, and communication through music. The objective was to develop the oral expression of eighth-grade students through the use of musical resources to strengthen the Kichwa language in adolescents. The methodology employed was a mixed approach, with an action research design and a descriptive level. The study was implemented in a public educational institution with approximately 375 students. From these, a sample of 22 eighth-grade students was selected, consisting of 12 women and 10 men. The most relevant results were evidenced by the use of field diaries, which observed the positive impact of music and its resources on the development of oral expression in students, as well as its contribution to improving memory and creativity. In conclusion, the use of music in education contributes to emotional progress that involves learning and strengthening the Kichwa language. Furthermore, this strategy contributes to the development of different skills and abilities that are necessary for the optimal teaching-learning process, creating and promoting new techniques and strategies in education in order to achieve educational quality.
