| Sumario: | "The context of the research was in a private primary school in Pachuca, Hidalgo, Mexico. The current research project aims to explore teachers’ cognition, more specifically into the teaching practice and emotional responses that English language teachers in the elementary level report when implementing the use of the iPad in their lessons. Four female English teachers were selected to be part of the current research project. A grounded theory method was selected to carry out the study and two instruments were chosen to collect and triangulate the data obtained, such instruments are guided teachers’ narratives and individual interviews. Results show that teachers’ practices and emotional responses evolve during the process of iPad implementation by following four main stages: initial reactions, sense of realization, change, and adaptation. Furthermore, similar emotional reactions and teaching practices were found in the four participants. Finally, all the participants agreed that the implementation of the iPad changed somehow the dynamic of their lessons as well as the way they used to teach". |
