Perceptions of Colombian Teachers about the Didactics of Social Sciences

Abstract

The article seeks to answer the question about the perceptions that teachers have in training and in practice on the didactics of the social sciences in Colombia. To this end, a method with an interpretative approach with a mixed design is used to integrate the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data produced on these perceptions in the context of basic and secondary education. The results present from the perceptions of teachers some correlations between the didactics they claim to use and the way in which it is expressed in their pedagogical practice. The conclusions contribute to the design, implementation, and evaluation of educational policies in education, especially those aimed at improving the teaching and learning processes of the social sciences at different educational levels.

Explorando la relación Escuela-Familia en Colombia: un análisis descriptivo desde los productos investigativos de posgrado

“…Este estudio subraya la necesidad de una mayor conciencia y recursos para apoyar a estas familias. Además, Palacios Mena et al (2022), en su investigación ilustran cómo las percepciones de los maestros sobre la enseñanza de las ciencias sociales influyen en su práctica pedagógica. Este aspecto es crucial para entender cómo los educadores y las familias perciben y valoran diferentes áreas del currículo.…”
