Development of Literary Competence Through a Semiotic Approach and Technological Resources

Abstract

Currently, literary competence is scarcely addressed in secondary education teaching. Therefore, the objective of this study was to design a didactic proposal to improve literary competence through a semiotic approach and technological resources in secondary school students of an educational center located in the city of Lambayeque. The research was quantitative, non-experimental and descriptive-propositive design. The instrument used was the "Likert scale to evaluate literary competence", which was applied to a sample of 32 fifth grade students, selected by non-probabilistic sampling. As a result, it was obtained that the students presented low levels of achievement, since 100% of them only evidenced beginning processes. In response to this problem, a didactic proposal for the comprehension and production of narrative discourse was designed and validated from a semiotic perspective using ICT resources. We conclude on the importance of the contributions in the area of communication, which can integrate didactics with technology, contributing to the pedagogical processes for current generations and educational systems of the globalized world.
