Incidencias de los elementos ciudadanizantes presentes en los programas de educación ciudadana Bogotá 2008-2015

Abstract

The present study aimed to determine the incidence of citizenship elements in the citizen education programs implemented by the District Education Secretariat of Bogotá between 2008 and 2015. To achieve this, a documentary review was conducted using the tools provided by the ATLAS Ti 9 program. Textual blocks from the source documents were selected and decoded into clouds, which allowed for the identification of the citizenship elements to be analyzed. Subsequently, each of these elements was encoded by selecting key concepts that indicated their meaning, characteristics, citizen focus, and supporting authors from the documents. This process resulted in the formation of coding networks that express their relationships and incidences through a descriptive analysis. The findings referred to the transformations that each citizenship element has undergone according to the citizenship approaches that have historically been present in the Colombian educational process. In general, the study concludes that the District Education Secretariat of Bogotá currently emphasizes the importance of citizen formation from an alternative approach, aiming to educate active social individuals who recognize democracy, rights, culture, and coexistence. Finally, this research opens the door for academics to investigate the topic of citizen education in Colombia from other perspectives.
