Therefore, there is consensus among theoreticians that teaching and learning a foreign language has to be mainly oriented to foster communication than to focus on grammar and accuracy. The aim of this study was to collect students’ opinion and observe attitudes regarding the implementation of Task-Based Language Teaching and Learning Activities in three private-subsidized schools in the fifth region of Chile. This investigation was conducted for a two-month period. For this multiple case-study the researchers decided to apply a number of tasks in three grades from three different schools; two 7th grades and one 8th grade. After the implementation of the method, the authors collected data about students’ opinions and observed attitudes using different instruments, such as; logbooks, surveys, and questionnaires, that were analysed using the investigator triangulation method. Finally, findings show learners’ good predisposition to TBLT as a pedagogical tool, since most of them evaluated the implemented tasks with a high level of acceptance. Additionally, students’ reactions towards the implementation of tasks were in general positive, as recorded in the logbooks. It is also important to mention that the tasks implemented in this investigation might provide teachers with appealing activities that are directly related with real world situations.enMetodologíaComposición y EjerciciosEnseñanzaTesis
