Directrices para el diseño curricular en la enseñanza del inglés en el siglo XXI

Abstract

According to the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (Iztapalapa), conditions for creating competence in linguistic, communicative, intercultural, interdisciplinary and critical thought skills are fundamental requirements for teaching English as a foreign language, in order to ensure our students’ full personal, professional and social development. This article presents an outline of the multiregional guidelines underlying the curriculum design of the General Study Program English: An Interdisciplinary and Intercultural Perspective, designed by the Interdisciplinary Studies in the English Language and Anglophone Cultures Research team of the Philosophy Department at the Iztapalapa Campus.
