dc.description.abstract El presente proyecto de enfoque cualitativo propone un Syllabus basado en competencias (Daniels, 2002), diseñado para el desarrollo de habilidades del pensamiento crítico a través de un círculo literario. Para llevar a cabo la propuesta de Syllabus, está fue basada en un análisis de necesidades (Johns, 1991) aplicada a estudiantes del programa de Licenciatura en Idioma Extranjero Inglés en la Universidad Minuto De Dios, con el fin de identificar sus dificultades y falencias en términos de pensamiento crítico. Lo anterior fue recolectado a través de entrevistas, cuestionarios y observaciones, lo cual nos permitió organizar los resultados en tres categorías principales. Posteriormente, las categorías y subcategorías descritas en el análisis de necesidades arrojaron el reiterado uso de habilidades simples del pensamiento crítico en los estudiantes de séptimo a noveno semestre de la Licenciatura y también los potenciales beneficios de una actividad extracurricular como es el caso de un círculo literario. Las evidencias recolectadas fueron la base para el diseño del Syllabus, a través de la creación de catorce sesiones, en las cuales las habilidades que componen el pensamiento crítico fueron desarrolladas en un proceso de andamiaje donde una habilidad procede de la otra para su apropiado desarrollo (Numrich, 2010). es_ES

dc.description.abstractenglish The current qualitative project proposes a competency-based syllabus (Daniels, 2002) designed to the development of critical thinking skills through literature circles. The syllabus proposed was based on a need analysis (Johns, 1991) carried out to students of the Bachelor Degree in English Language Teaching at Universidad Minuto de Dios in order to identify their needs and deficiencies regarding critical thinking skills. Those needs and deficiencies were identified using different data collection methods that allowed us to organize the findings within three main categories. Subsequently, the categories and subcategories described in the needs analysis provided evidences of low awareness of critical thinking skills in the students of seventh to ninth semesters from the Bachelor as well as the potential benefits of an extracurricular activity such as a literature circle. The evidences collected were the basis for the syllabus design guiding the creation of fourteen sessions in which the skills that compose critical thinking were developed in a scaffolding system where one skill preceded the other for its appropriate development according to Numrich (2010). us_US
