Resumen

Este artículo presenta los resultados de un estudio longitudinal llevado a cabo con 1.033 alumnos AICLE y 991 alumnos de inglés como lengua extranjera en 53 centros públicos, privados y concertados de 12 provincias españolas sobre los efectos del AICLE en el aprendizaje de la lengua extranjera (gramática, vocabulario, comprensión lectora, comprensión oral y producción oral). La evolución del aprendizaje lingüístico de ambos grupos, cuya homogeneidad en nivel de inglés, motivación e inteligencia verbal se había garantizado previamente, se examina de Educación Primaria a Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y a Bachillerato a través de la aplicación de post-tests y pruebas de seguimiento. Además de estas comparaciones intergrupales, también se realizan análisis intragrupales para determinar la evolución lingüística del alumnado bilingüe y no bilingüe a través de los precitados niveles educativos. Por último, se realizan análisis discriminantes con todas las variables intervinientes (motivación, inteligencia verbal, exposición extramural al inglés, ámbito y nivel socioeconómico) para determinar si el AICLE es realmente responsable de las diferencias observadas o si estas se pueden adscribir a otras variables.
