Descubro, redescubro e interpreto: guía interactiva para el aprendizaje de la geografía física” con estudiantes de 5to grado del colegio rural José Celestino Mutis

Abstract

The purpose of this degree work is to demonstrate the relevance of using innovative, significant and updated didactic strategies in rural educational contexts in relation to pedagogical and disciplinary knowledge, to improve the teaching and learning processes of physical geography. For this reason, this document presents the main research results associated with the design and application of the didactic unit "I discover, rediscover and interpret: an interactive guide for learning physical geography" with fifth grade students from the José Celestino rural school. Mutis, located in Mochuelo Bajo - Ciudad Bolívar, Bogotá D.C. The research was theoretically positioned from the constructivist pedagogical model, methodologically from the contextual ecological paradigm and the didactic planning proposal exposed by Arjona (2010). These theoretical-methodological approaches allowed us to analyze the educational context and design improvement actions based on its needs, achieving an approximation through questionnaires, closed surveys, semi-structured interviews and a review of primary documentary sources. With the application of the aforementioned, it was evidenced that it is possible to generate different pedagogical practices within the geography class, giving relevance to innovative learning and addressing environmental problems present in the local and national context.
