Background: English language teaching requires support to strengthen communicative practice in the classroom; consequently, audiovisual resources are increasingly being integrated into school-based educational processes. Objective: To analyze the relationship between audiovisual resources and English language learning among students at an educational institution. Methodology: The study employed a quantitative approach, basic research type, correlational level, and a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The non-probabilistic sample consisted of 120 primary school students from an educational institution in Peru. A survey was used as the data collection technique, utilizing two questionnaires as instruments. Results: Descriptive statistics showed that 50.83 % of students rarely used audio media, 65.00 % rarely used audiovisual media, and 76.67 % never engaged in oral comprehension and expression activities. Spearman's Rho revealed a moderate positive relationship between the two variables (Rho = 0.364; p < 0.001; n = 120), with a moderate association for visual media (Rho = 0.375), a weak inverse association for audio media (Rho = -0.248), and a weak positive association for audiovisual media (Rho = 0.191). Conclusion: The students evaluated demonstrate a moderate positive association between the two variables; thus, the pedagogical integration of these media represents a suitable approach to strengthening language instruction within the evaluated school context.
Contexto: la enseñanza del inglés demanda apoyos que fortalezcan la práctica comunicativa en el aula, por lo que los recursos audiovisuales ganan espacio en los procesos formativos escolares. Objetivo: analizar la relación entre los recursos audiovisuales y el aprendizaje del inglés en estudiantes de una institución educativa. Metodología: el estudio siguió un enfoque cuantitativo, tipo básico, nivel correlacional y diseño no experimental transversal. La muestra no probabilística comprendió 120 alumnos de nivel primaria de una institución educativa de Perú. Se empleó la encuesta como técnica y dos cuestionarios como instrumentos. Resultados: los descriptivos mostraron que el 50.83 % empleó pocas veces los medios auditivos, el 65.00 % recurrió pocas veces a los medios audiovisuales y el 76.67 % nunca realizó actividades de comprensión y expresión oral. El Rho de Spearman puso de manifiesto una relación positiva moderada entre ambas variables (Rho = 0.364; p < 0.001; n = 120), con asociación moderada para los medios visuales (Rho = 0.375), inversa débil para los medios auditivos (Rho = -0.248) y positiva débil para los medios audiovisuales (Rho = 0.191). Conclusión: los escolares evaluados exhiben una asociación positiva de magnitud moderada entre ambas variables, de modo que la incorporación pedagógica de estos medios representa una vía pertinente para fortalecer la enseñanza del idioma en el contexto escolar evaluado.
