Improvement of suprasegmental features of pronunciation, namely intonation, stress and rhythm

Abstract

This investigation has been carried out to improve the sonorous aspects of the English language in students of the sixth grade “A” in Paul Harris and learn how to rhythmically intonate and accentuate the language according to plan. The object of the research is the teaching-learning process of the English language . It is based on a quantitative methodological paradigm with an experimental design, of the pre-experimental type, consisting of a pre-test and a post-test. The theoretical methods used were: The historical-logical method to analyze the evolution and most relevant contributions of the object and the field of research, the analytical synthetic method for the critical study of literature focused on the subject of study and the application of research methods. Besides, the methods used within the empirical level were scientific observation, experimentation as a research design and the pedagogical test for the diagnosis of previous knowledge. Due to the students' learning difficulties, it has been proposed that audiovisual media be used as a didactic resource in classes to achieve significant learning in the study of English language.
