QUESADA CHAVES, María José. The Creation of Educational Videos as a Teaching Strategy in the Training Process of Future English Teachers. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.1, pp.127-146. ISSN 1409-4703.

This article explores the process of introducing technology in the production and editing of videos to promote second language learning, as part of the course Teaching Practicum Experience. In this course, senior students from the English Major in the Pacific Campus of the University of Costa Rica must teach English classes in public high schools. The purpose is to implement the knowledge acquired through their process of teacher training. The origin of the proposal and the developed process of this research are detailed. Because in one way or another use of video as a teaching tool is not a strategy widely common in the public education system in the province of Puntarenas. The information collected was the result of observation of lessons and interviews in which relevant data were also obtained as well as the information reflected in the questionnaires administered to student - teachers, who determined the academic reality that is lived in the classrooms of mainly two public high schools in the area in which this study was carried on. It can be said as a conclusion that when there is a didactic purpose well established, a clear vision and teacher's motivation, the use of technology becomes a true ally to promote effective learning of English due to the multiple benefits given when using moving images instead of the traditional methods of language teaching.
