MARIN SANCHEZ, Claudia Isabel; LIBRADOTORRES, Emily e ALARCON AGUIRRE, María Eugenia. University Students and the Last English I Examination. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.1, pp.228-248. ISSN 1409-4703.
This research project is exploratory, qualitative and identifies the factors that lead students to an English final test called "the last-chance test". It was conducted at Universidad Veracruzana in Mexico. The study aimed to identify reasons why students have to make this exam. Participants were students, teachers and assessors from the Self-Access Centers. Results showed that the main reasons were lack of interest and lack of training in autonomous learning. We propose training for counselors, learning to learn workshops and an effective communication system to support students at risk of failing.
