Resumen
This study aims to explore the use of virtual storytelling as a way to enhance students’ language skills in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) –specifically Business English–, and to develop new literacies they could potentially apply in their future careers. To this end, in the theoretical framework, we review the literature related to the competencies and skills students need nowadays, the evolution of the use of storytelling in the physical classroom to its digital format for online settings, and its application in the ESP classroom. Then we analyze the results obtained from a survey in which respondents provided information on their perceptions after completing a digital storytelling activity. This data allow us to answer the research questions of our study. In the conclusion, we reflect on the importance of conducting this kind of study as a way to adapt training to the competencies and skills that students need to develop in the 21st century.
