Extracurricular activities, a means to increase motivation in the English learning language

Abstract

Currently, globalization plays an important role in world communication; this has increased the interest of university students, especially because there is a standard in the curriculum to be met to obtain their academic degree in Ecuador. The key to the successful development of the knowledge society in commercial areas is internationalization, which is why efficient learning of a foreign language plays an important role in the formation of the student's personal and cultural qualities. The present work exemplifies the organization of several extracurricular activities applied in four test groups with administration students, supervised by the teachers who teach the English subject at the levels planned for each degree. The associative and coexistence factor is fundamental for the normal development of activities such as English clubs, weeks and summer schools and artistic and cultural activities such as theater and singing.
