The teaching resources in the teaching and learning of English: an exploratory approach

Abstract

This study identified the perceptions of 34 English teachers regarding the knowledge and use of learning resources in the classroom, during 2012. To this sample a questionnaire of the type of Likert scale was applied that allowed us to explore the use of the teaching resources from the perspective of the subjects involved. The results have enabled us to point out that teacher’s in the public education system emphasized, through resources, vocabulary development, while those of semi-public educational dependency stimulated the ability of oral expression and pronunciation.
