dc.description.abstractThe present study reports on an action-research project conducted with the participation of fifteen subjects who were taking the Reading for Business English course at Universidad Tecnológica de Chile Inacap. The aim behind this AR is to explore the impact of the explicit teaching of a derivational morphology intervention to improve reading comprehension on a group of A2 higher education students. The fifteen participants attended to four online training sessions and the effects were assessed through the application of a pre and a post-test. In addition, subjects’ opinions were collected through a survey to provide this research with a qualitative aspect. Results suggest that explicit teaching of derivational morphology awareness is an effective method to improve reading comprehension in EFL and the opinions collected through the survey show that subjects perceived the usefulness of morphological awareness on their learning process.
