Resumen
[ES] Esta investigación presenta una unidad didáctica basada en unos principios didácticos que giran en torno a la interconexión lingüística y cultural principalmente entre dos lenguas: inglés como lengua extranjera y griego clásico. Para el desempeño de dicha labor docente se explora una metodología profundamente influenciada por un enfoque ecléctico, compuesto tanto de principios tomados de métodos lingüísticos tradicionales como de enfoques más actuales e innovadores. Así pues, este estudio considera la asignatura de inglés como una herramienta que debe incorporar una serie de objetivos, competencias y contenidos interdisciplinares a otras asignaturas. Es, en definitiva, de esta forma por la que se consigue adaptar fácilmente cualquier tipo de contenidos, competencias y objetivos a cualquier tipo de asignaturas, aulas y factores, bien internos bien externos; y consecuentemente, la culminación exitosa de un aprendizaje significativo donde el alumnado adquiera competencias, individuales y colectivas, que resulten realmente valiosas para su desarrollo profesional y personal.
