This research study takes into account the strategy of association as a tool to increase students’ participation in the English class. It is fundamental to know that this proposal explores two types of associations. Association with pictures and association with a topic. Following this logic, this study was made as a qualitative research in order to understand how students are affected by everything that surrounds them before and after the implementation of this strategy.28 p.enghttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/Association strategyStudents’ motivationParticipationhttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_16echttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_7a1fhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/a
