These strategies can be implemented in the classroom to improve their autonomy, interaction and participation. In this qualitative study, classroom observations and a focus group were carried out. Eight adolescent students from an educational institute in Mexico participated. The results show aspects related to the way in which students apply these strategies in their learning process and how they feel about it.
