dc.description.abstract [eng] The LGBTQ+ community has been actively fighting for civil rights in the last decades. However, despite their progress, society has not become completely equal, tolerant and accepting of LGBTQ+ people. Today, discrimination and bullying are highly present in Spanish high schools, and minorities frequently become the targets of these attacks, including LGBTQ+ teenagers. This study analyzes the situation of LGBT-phobia in two different high schools in Majorca, located in the Balearic Islands, Spain. Based on a survey, it was detected that some students still had extremely negative perceptions of LGBTQ+ people, which resulted in the creation of a didactic proposal to be implemented in a Compulsory Secondary Education (ESO) English classroom. The adaptability of the curriculum in this subject allows for this proposal to find a place during the English lessons, in which task-based learning activities enable the teacher to educate on LGBTQ+ history and its people. ca
dc.description.abstract [spa] La comunidad LGBTQ+ ha estado luchando activamente por sus derechos en las últimas décadas. Sin embargo, a pesar de sus progresos, la sociedad no es aún completamente igualitaria y tolerante con respecto a las personas LGBTQ+. Hoy en día, la discriminación y el acoso se encuentran a menudo presentes en los institutos de secundaria de España, y, con frecuencia, son las minorías las que se convierten en los objetivos de estos ataques, incluyendo a adolescentes LGBTQ+. Este estudio analiza la situación de LGBT-fobia en dos institutos de secundaria ubicados en Mallorca, en las Islas Baleares, España. Basándose en un cuestionario, se ha detectado que algunos estudiantes aún albergan unas percepciones extremadamente negativas sobre las personas LGBTQ+. Por ello, se ha diseñado una propuesta didáctica para ser implementada en la asignatura de Inglés en los niveles de enseñanza secundaria obligatoria (ESO), donde la adaptabilidad del currículum de esta asignatura permite profesorado educar sobre la historia y las personas LGBTQ+ mediante actividades del enfoque por tareas. ca
