Resumen

El principal objetivo y mayor reto del idioma inglés es desarrollar la destreza oral. Sin embargo, las clases de inglés se basan en métodos centrados en el docente; por tanto, los estudiantes no se involucran en contextos de práctica del idioma. En este sentido, el objetivo de este estudio es analizar la relación entre el Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos (ABP) y la destreza oral del idioma inglés con estudiantes de cuarto nivel de un instituto tecnológico superior en el período académico noviembre 2025 – abril 2026. Para ello, se analizó la literatura para comprender de manera sustancial el ABP, así como los estudios relacionados con el tema. Acerca de la intervención, los estudiantes trabajaron durante cuatro meses en un proyecto, integrando tanto conocimientos de inglés como de otras asignaturas. Al final de este período, se aplicó un cuestionario de satisfacción y un examen oral. El estudio se desarrolló con base en el método cuantitativo. Los resultados muestran un buen grado de satisfacción y un nivel satisfactorio de destreza oral, es decir, se identificó una relación entre las variables, pero esta no es fuerte. En conclusión, la relación entre las variables no es suficiente para indicar que la satisfacción estudiantil es el factor determinante relacionado con el nivel de destrezas orales.
