Abstract

This article shows some results of a work that had as main objective to identify if it exists any relation between the type of technological resources used by the students of the Programa de Fomento a las Lenguas Extranjeras (PFLE) of the Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes and the opinion about these resources as a support for English Language Learning. The work performed was an inquiry, which used an online questionnaire as data collection tool that was applied to undergraduate students enrolled in the English courses of the PFLE within the period August-December 2010. The results presented in this document are those that respond to three of the research questions that guided the work and are shown later.
