Resumen
Este artículo se enfoca en algunas particularidades que docentes de inglés con Propósitos Específicos (IPE) debería considerar mientras instruyen estudiantes adultos. Las personas docentes de IPE pueden estratégicamente diseñar lecciones para discentes adultos a la luz de teorías de aprendizaje en adultos. A través de los años, las personas docentes de inglés que atienden diversos estudiantes podrían haber ignorado el factor de la edad. Personas menores de edad y adultos internalizan el conocimiento y desarrollan habilidades lingüísticas a ritmos distintos a pesar de condiciones de enseñanza similares. Esta revisión bibliográfica tiene como objetivo discutir principios andragógicos y maneras de abordar y adaptar a estudiantes del inglés adultos durante el diseño instruccional o curricular en contextos IPE. Una breve comparación entre la pedagogía y la andragogía arroja algunas diferencias perspicaces entre enseñar a menores e instruir a adultos. Es recomendable que las personas docentes de inglés para propósitos específicos consideren que el alumnado adulto responde diferente a los esfuerzos académicos y requieren adecuaciones para aprender este lenguaje meta efectivamente. Así pues, tanto la elaboración del plan de lección como la instrucción para el alumnado adulto requieren de un escrutinio cuidadoso de los principios andragógicos y los más recientes resultados de investigaciones resumidos en este artículo para abordar la instrucción del inglés para esta población.
