SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES • To analyze the teacher’s methods and techniques that affect the students’ motivation to learn the English language • To determine how the lack of using Didactic-Teaching material affects the communicative learning process • To characterize the significant learning by the implementation of new strategies to develop their English competences

11. JUSTIFICATION Due to globalization we have seem the necessity of learning the English language in order to improve our social status and knowledge in different fields, wherever some problems have arisen during the development of education process that we have felt when we did our practices at ‘SARAGURO’ Technical Institute. Motivation is the one of the main problems that students have in their educational formative development; it can be external or internal factors which difficult the learning and interest of English as second language.

23. CHAPTER IV ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

24. Independent Variables Students’ lack of motivation: it means someone is not be interested in or not being able to do anything. Dependent Variable Incidence in the learning-process of English language: it is a cause of effects or disagreements in the unfolding of it. Communicative competences: they are the skills someone has to develop for a good communication in real life situations. VARIABLES WORKING OUT

25. Question 1: Do teachers use the latest methodologies in the development of the English classes? Such as Suggestopedia, the Silent way, Cooperative learning, the Audio Lingual Method so on. Alternatives Frequency Percentage Yes 18 14% No 105 78% Sometimes 10 8% TOTAL 133 100% Methodologies 8% 14% Yes No Sometimes 78%

29. CHI SQUARE FORMULA

30. CHI SQUARE CALCULATION THEORETICAL SQUARED CHI GL = (Row N0 -1) (column N0 -1) GL = (2-1) (3-1) GL = 2 Significance Level: 0, 01 Statistical Decision: With 2 grades of freedom and a level of Significance of 0, 01 correspond to a THEORETICAL SQUARED CHI de 9,210 established in the statistical table of values of squared chi

31. Statistical Decision for Specific Hypothesis ONCE CALCULATED SQUARED CHI (34, 95) higher than the THEORETICAL SQUARED CHI (9,210) the Null Hypothesis Ho is not accepted, this means that the lack of motivation in students is affecting the English learning-process at fifth courses in the “Saraguro” Technical Institute

32. CHAPTER V CONCLUSIONS • TEACHERS APPLY TRADITIONAL METHODS (Translation method and Task Based Approach) • STUDENTS LACK OF MOTIVATION DURING THE LEARNING PROCESS RECOMMENDATION • TO PLAN COURSES OR SEMINARIES (competences and up to date d methods) • TO TEACHERS` WELL PREPARED (values, F.C.E. and daily planning)
