Resumen

Este artículo incluye un análisis de trabajos académicos que se centran en aspectos culturales escritos por estudiantes de máster en el programa ‘Teach & Learn in Spain’ en el Instituto Franklin-UAH. El porcentaje de trabajos académicos de estas características escritos por estos estudiantes que actuaron como auxiliares de conversación (AC) en colegios bilingües en España es bastante alto, lo que sugiere la importancia del componente cultural en la enseñanza del inglés como segunda lengua y su alto nivel de conciencia sociocultural. Por lo tanto, este artículo tiene varios objetivos: a) determinar la existencia de una conciencia sociocultural específica en los trabajos de investigación; b) identificar los aspectos culturales que fueron considerados esenciales por los AC en este programa y mostrar las estrategias utilizadas para proporcionar información; y c) comparar hallazgos considerando antecedentes teóricos. El método se basará en un enfoque mixto basado en análisis cuantitativos y cualitativos y será específico para cada uno de los objetivos.
