Abstract

The changes experienced on the last times lead to the implementation of new ways of teaching a foreign language. This purpose can be reached by means of the application of software like the Adobe Adaptative which allows to propose other ways of presenting contents that facilitate the teacher´s work and the learning process of the student. This study seeks to analyze the impact of this tool in two English courses which participants were students with a ranging age between 16 and 35 years. In this study the efficiency of the use of this tool was measured with the intention of reaching a major domain of the foreign language after the software have being used by the students. By means of the implementation of the tool of Adobe Adaptative, them they demonstrated to have a major domain of the foreign English language.
