Abstract

This article reports the results of a case study research focused on the influence of Project- Based Learning and Task-Based Learning on tenth grade students at a public school in Envigado, Antioquia. After analyzing the data gathered through a questionnaire, a naturalistic observation, and a focus group, the findings revealed that such approaches could impact students’ perceived value of English learning, promote active engagement, contextualized reach, and collaborative learning, and transform students’ negative feelings into positive ones. In conclusion, Project-Based Learning altogether with Task-Based Learning are approaches that enhance learners’ intrinsic motivation in the English classroom.
