Step 2: Watch a sci-fi movie and deduce two research ideas.

Selected movie: Her

 Technology can somehow replace human contact.

 The use of TIC in English language teaching.

 Digital storytelling as a pedagogical strategic in English language teaching.

Step 4: compare the ideas research inferred from the film and from the article and
answer the following questions:

 Are all ideas fruitful?

Although the film is science fiction has very fruitful ideas that are part of humanity,
such us the loneliness in which they live. They are immersed in the use of technology
to meet their needs. In relation to the article ideas are also fruitful. The use of
technology is important for learning a second language.

 Which ideas are more useful, those derived from the film or from the
scientific article?

I think the ideas of the film and the scientific articles are useful because in the film the
feeling of loneliness is a reality but the article is a research study that is also useful in
the education.

 How did the ideas happen?

In the film the ideas emerged by society in today´s world where everyday and
professional tasks are lost by technological advances. But reading the article it is
possible to do an analysis and get the ideas in an easy way.

Step 5: My research idea

Write your own research idea based on your learning-teaching experience of English as
a foreign language at UNAD.
 The use of ICT as a pedagogical strategy in teaching and learning English as a
second language.

English as a second language.
