Resumen
DIAZ MONSALVE, Ana Elsy y CARMONA AGUDELO, Nadia Carolina. Holistic Training: Teachers' views of pedagogy. Colomb. Appl. Linguist. J. [online]. 2010, vol.12, n.1, pp.7-26. ISSN 0123-4641.
This article reports the results of a qualitative investigation. It explored the representations on the concept Holistic Training that EFL teachers have in Medellin's public, primary schools. This work had the collaboration of 19 teachers, holding a B.Ed or a specialization in English. They answered a questionnaire and an in-depth interview. The interpretation of this information revealed that the representations of these teachers about the Holistic Training have two different dimensions: instrumental and transcendental. Both are structured around student's personality, motivation, their communicative competence and socio-cultural context.
Palabras clave : representation; holistic training; personality; motivation; communicative competence; and socio-cultural context.
