El papel de las artes en un mundo de color: apoyo y asistencia pedagógica en la introducción a la imagen y el color

Abstract

In this text, I present my memories of the internship I did at the Los Puentes campus of the I.E.D. La Merced school in the municipality of Mosquera, Cundinamarca, Colombia. This territory was assigned to me by the Ministry of Education's PTAFI program, where I was able to develop a pedagogical process using the visual and plastic arts as a curricular discipline to generate curiosity, dialogue, and personal expression about image and color in children in grades one through five. This program aims to generate alternative educational processes where children and young people from rural areas of Colombia can voluntarily participate in training spaces that strengthen their comprehensive, cultural, and community development. In this case, the plastic and visual arts are understood as an artistic language that dialogues with the community through social and cultural expressions.
