Círculos de literatura para preparar la lectura inferencial de los egresados de la escuela secundaria para la prueba nacional de egreso

Abstract

Last year, the school under observation obtained low scores in the English section of the standardized exit test, specifically in the inferential reading part. This exam plays a role in higher education access. This study aims to determine to what extent students perceive that implementing a literature circle helps them improve inferential reading in the test called Prueba Saber 11. This document reports an inquiry on the implications of the literature circle as an extracurricular activity. Action research is the type of study conducted through public records, surveys, and questionnaires (mock tests)—the project’s structure chains with task-based learning (TBL) as the methodology for the implementation. As the project was not successfully applied, the theoretical background suggests a positive relationship between inference reading skills and didactic strategies such as literature circles.
