Teachers in different countries implemented technology-based approaches in their praxis in all school levels to cope with remote teaching due to the world health emergency. Within this challenging context, teachers were responsible to generate effective teaching practices using a wide range of apps and platforms in online school environments. The challenge teachers had was not only changing their established teaching approaches by adopting ICT tools but creating an engaging atmosphere in the classroom context to reach learners’ outcomes. Both, teachers’ and students’ engagement effects on learning have attracted research when using social media in the classroom context. The main objective of this research is to explore EFL teacher’s perceptions regarding engagement when using teaching apps and platforms in schools in Chile. The study is framed in a mixed research paradigm reporting 10 teachers’ perceptions regarding engagement in their teaching experiences during the Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) period. These perceptions, opinions and experiences were collected through a survey and a focus group. Results showed that various external and intrinsic factors are involved in engagement in online school environments. These factors are directly related to emotional and strategic or behavioural dimensions.enInglésMetodologíaEntornos Virtuales de AprendizajeEducación a DistanciaInvestigacionesProfesores de InglésActitudesTesis
