Descripción:The observation of pre-university students in the Spanish language class led us to investigate 134 schoolchildren of different nationalities who showed deficiencies in linguistic awareness (CL) or language awareness. The objective is to identify the factors of the improvement of CL in the group of adolescents of 15-year-olds to which we teach in the Canary Islands (Spain). In order to obtain results, in the 2016-2017 academic year during 6 weeks, an investigation is planned through a writing workshop with its respective inductive and heuristic tasks which were evaluated by the teacher with a rubric, in which it appears the three dimensions of CL for grammatical errors: identification, justification of the error, and creation of the rule. The results obtained from improvement are examined quantitatively with the personal parameters analyzed: mother tongue, gender, international certification in languages, intrinsic motivation and having completed a bilingual primary school. The quantitative analysis concludes that the most influential factor in CL progress is gender, mother tongue and motivation. This result is useful for other teachers who seek to investigate CL in multilingual adolescents.
