Resumen

Uno de los géneros más innovadores de la comunicación empresarial actual es el denominado “Product Pitch” (PP), caracterizado sobre todo por su naturaleza multisemiótica (Daly & Davy, 2016), que precisa un enfoque multimodal para su análisis y enseñanza (Tamarit &S korczynska, 2014; Valeiras-Jurado, 2017). Sin embargo, es escasa la investigación sobre la enseñanza de los PPs a estudiantes de inglés empresarial. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un modelo pedagógico innovador basado en el estudio del género y dirigido por el propio aprendiz que se desarrolla en torno a un ciclo de enseñanza y aprendizaje que promueve el pensamiento crítico y la percepción de la multimodalidad (Querol-Julián & Fortanet-Gómez, 2019). Siguiendo las cuatro etapas del ciclo propuesto y con la ayuda constante del profesor, un grupo de estudiantes de negocios decodificó las agrupaciones multimodales de un PP de YouTube para posteriormente crear sus propios PP, que fueron evaluados desde el punto de vista multimodal por el resto de la clase (evaluación por pares) y por la profesora utilizando una rúbrica que incluye todos los modos.
