RAMOS HOLGUIN, BERTHA  and  AGUIRRE MORALES, JAHIR. Social Subjects Construction in EFL Teaching Education Programs: Challenges and Opportunities. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2022, n.40, pp.1-.  Epub May 14, 2023. ISSN 0121-053X.  https://doi.org/10.19053/0121053x.n40.2023.15118.

This article reports the partial results of a research project aimed at interpreting how social actors in Bachelor Degrees programs in Foreign Languages understand the meanings of education. As such, this paper is a first attempt to understand that English Teacher Formation programs have been conceived based on economic models that focus on the construction of skills related to knowledge of the field of study, instead of providing spaces that strengthen the construction of social subjects. We conclude that for English Teacher Formation programs it is necessary to concentrate on possibilities that allow future teachers to be aware of their interculturalities in order to become social subjects. This requires that future teachers negotiate with their communities, the critical evaluation of teaching materials, and the comprehension of local contexts.

Keywords : subjects; interculturality; pre-service teachers; English teaching; humanism.
