Abstract
El material en el aula es un complemento esencial para los profesores. ¿Pero somos realmente conscientes de ello? El trabajo presentado a continuación tiene un estudio de caso y un enfoque cualitativo que se centra en el material utilizado dentro del aula y su relación con la motivación. Nosotros, como investigadores, hemos decidido estudiar este aspecto tan importante para los alumnos ya que desde nuestra práctica se ha evidenciado la falta de material y actividades por parte de algunos de los profesores de una escuela primaria pública. Como consecuencia, los alumnos muestran un bajo nivel de motivación al momento de desarrollar sus actividades, o el material creado por el profesor lo que simultáneamente está afectando su comprensión. Para estudiar este fenómeno presentado anteriormente, el método de estudio de caso y el enfoque cualitativo nos ayudaron a comprender hasta qué punto el material del profesor influye en la motivación de los alumnos de una población de tercer grado entre 8-9 años y las creencias que tiene profesor de inglés respecto al material estandarizado y el material auténtico. Además, los instrumentos que nos permitieron obtener información relevante para este fenómeno fueron una encuesta a los alumnos, notas de campo y entrevistas a los alumnos y al profesor.

The monograph that we present below has a case study and qualitative approach that focuses on the material used inside the classroom and its relation to motivation. We as researchers have decided to study this important aspect for learners since from our practice settings we have evidenced that some of the teachers have a lack of material and activities of a primary public school. As a consequence, students show a low level of motivation at the moment of developing their activities, or the material that the teachers create which simultaneously is affecting their comprehension. The purpose of this study is to understand to what extent the teacher’s material influences students’ motivation from a third grade population between 8-9 years old and the English teacher’s beliefs regarding standardized material and authentic material use in class. To achieve this objective, we decided to carry out a case study and a qualitative research using a student's survey, field notes and interviews with students and the teacher.
