Conociendo la época del Bipartidismo en Colombia a través de la música: una propuesta didáctica para fortalecer la lectura inferencial en grado octavo

Abstract

The objective of this research work is to propose a didactic strategy to strengthen the level of inferential reading in eighth grade students through the connotative and denotative analysis of the lyrics of two Colombian songs with a historical background referring to the time of the two-party system; the first is A quién engañas abuelo by Arnulfo Briceño, and the second is El campesino embejucao by Óscar Humberto Gómez. The work arises as a result of the difficulties manifested in the standardized tests, which indicate a low reading comprehension on the part of the students, who only reach a level of literal reading, as well as the lack of the teaching of History in education Colombian that since years ago it was relegated and combined with areas such as Geography, Political Science, and among other disciplines, which diminishes its importance and causes conceptual gaps in students. To this end, this work is based on the postulates of various theorists about reading levels and, specifically, about the categories of denotation and connotation; also using a mixed methodology of an interpretive and constructivist nature with an educational action research approach, which results in the integration of the two problems present in each area through a didactic sequence in which music is the pedagogical tool that It helps students acquire the ability not only read the textual surface, but to read between the lines, in addition to recognizing and appropriating the history of their own country.
