PINZON CAPADOR, Sandra Viviana  y  GUERRERO NIETO, Carmen Helena. Living the Teaching Practicum Within Dichotomies: The Story From Within When Implementing ICTs in the English Language Classroom. How [online]. 2018, vol.25, n.2, pp.69-89. ISSN 0120-5927.  https://doi.org/10.19183/how.25.2.459.

This article reports the results of an introspective research conducted by a student-teacher and her advisor. Both met regularly over a period of one year and a half as part of the student-teacher academic work for the Research I class. As a result of their conversation the student-teacher and her advisor decided to document the former’s experience during her teaching practicum as she was trying to implement an innovation using m-learning in a public school in Bogotá. The analysis of data (narrative introspection, introspective interview, and lesson plans) shows that the student-teacher lived her teaching practicum within dichotomies in three dimensions we named negotiating between epistemologies, making up for logistic/technological flaws, and mending the self: between frustration and achievement.

Palabras clave : Innovation; practicum; pre-service teacher; technology.
