    The development of communication skills, using English as a foreign language, represented a climactic problem in the educational environment at "Educational Unit San Jose La Salle." The failings of the institution and the dissent between docents and students became more noticeable with each day, given the total lack of practical language application in real situations. It was sought then to verify the achievement of domination of the four English language skills (reading, writing, listening, speaking) through the application and utilization of audiovisual material. For this reason, the primary research objective consisted in evaluating the different levels of student progress in the development of the aforementioned English language skills by way of designing audiovisual material based on the methodology of the Project Book CRADLE "OUR WORLD THROUGH ENGLISH for third year of Basic Education with the ultimate goal of standardizing the didactic processes. In order to achieve this objective, the proposal was supported in a qualitative investigation, given that it focuses a real problem that affects a social group and is founded in guideline questions. The enforceability and functionality of the methods and techniques that were employed, allowed to obtain a knowledge of the real situation supported by a theoretical basis, the same also being based on bibliographical sources. The validity and dependability of such were determined under the support of the applied instruments with the assurance of increasing subject interest in administration, teaching staff, and students alike. This result serves as a basis for future projects and applications of this research in other Ecuadorian educational institutions, given that it represents a contribution with the potential to elevate the quality of education found in "Educational Unit San Jose La Salle," of the city of Latacunga.
