Most students who start an Adult Education have failed in compulsory education and this educational option is probably their last chance. For this reason, the aim of our study has been improving the student's performance and attitude towards the English language using an adaptive methodology that, in contrast to the traditional one, has allowed a variety of teaching methods and techniques to adequately respond to the diversity of all students. From our study it is clear that the adaptive method is the one performing best when using attitudinal and aptitudinal metrics in written and oral expression over time. It is however worth mentioning that improvement in terms of understanding capacity can be observed from the very beginning. Already in the first iterations we have opted for the experiments to be truly operational, functional and applicable in the context of everyday English classes for adults. This has enabled the creation of a bank of resources to complete the units of Adult Education School. |
