Following this theory, tenets such as implicit teaching, real language, and crossmodal input have been applied to the teaching of one group of 1st of Compulsory Secondary Education students for a two-week training period followed by two more weeks of treatment. The results show that students in the experimental group obtained higher academic results in a given unit of the course in comparison with students who simply followed the traditional teaching methodology. This little study thus calls for further research on more innovative teaching methods based on the dynamic nature of foreign language acquisition. %K Dynamic Systems Theory %K Chaos/Complexity Theory %K Secondary Education %K English as a foreign language %K Language learning theories %K Teoría de sistemas dinámicos %K Teoría del caos o complejidad %K Educación secundaria %K Inglés como lengua extranjera %K Teorías de aprendizaje de lenguas %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
