One of them is the emotions of the students during the learning process, referred to as the affective filter. The present master thesis explores collaborative learning as an instrument to moderate the affective filter in the ESL classroom. It also examines how working collaboratively and the regulation of the affective filter can enhance the oral production of students. The target of this thesis is 4th Year of Secondary Education Students. Therefore, a didactic proposal is presented following the above-mentioned principles. The didactic proposal seeks to implement collaborative work and opportunities to produce oral output. Additionally, the regulation of the affective filter of these students will be taken into consideration throughout the unit. Therefore, the main aim of this thesis is to provide 4th Year of Secondary Education ESL students with resources to improve their oral production while using collaborative learning and managing the affective filter.
