Resumen

Este artículo ofrece los resultados de un estudio llevado a cabo en dos asignaturas bilingües de primer año en una Facultad de Economía española. Un análisis del rendimiento académico 2010-2015 permite medir el impacto de las intervenciones metodológicas efectuadas y comparar su efectividad. Los resultados revelan la influencia en las notas de los diseños prácticos y centrados en el alumno, y la resolución de problemas de lengua, que sugiere estudiar el Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lenguas Extranjeras e Inglés como Medio de Instrucción según sus prácticas pedagógicas y no como dos enfoques separados. Finalmente, el estudio subraya la necesidad de promover la adaptación lingüística, la centralidad del estudiante y el estudio independiente en entornos bilingües.
