Resumen

Este estudio de investigación cualitativa fue realizado con dos grupos de estudiantes principiantes de inglés, quienes se encontraban en cuarto semestre de psicología en una universidad colombiana. El objetivo general de esta investigación acción fue la de analizar las percepciones de los estudiantes sobre el uso de la estrategia denominada justo antes del tiempo de enseñar en una página web 2.0. Los datos fueron obtenidos por medio de los trabajos de los estudiantes, diarios y entrevistas. Los resultados de esta investigación indican que los estudiantes se sintieron interesados por las actividades diseñadas. Este interés se evidenció a través de la inversión de tiempo para ampliar información y de la generación de participación por medio de la reducción del filtro afectivo.
