Tejiendo nuevas historias, la travesía de ser niñas: Una propuesta pedagógica que busca fortalecer la creación de narrativas críticas y sensibles que cuestionen los estereotipos de las identidades femeninas de las niñas del grado 204 y 106 del Liceo Femenino Mercedes Nariño

Abstract

This research work was developed over a period of a year and a half (From August 2023 - to November 2024) and focused on constructing sensitive and critical narratives that facilitate the problematization and questioning the gender stereotypes influencing the configuration of female identities among students in grades 106 and 204 at the Institución Educativa Distrital Femenino Mercedes Nariño.The research process was divided into three phases: The first one focused on a participatory observation exercise in which it was possible to recognize dynamics of interaction and communication that reflected beauty ideals and gender stereotypes/roles present and reproduced in family, school, and social media contexts. In this way, several questions were proposed that led to the formulation of the following research question: How to strengthen the creation of critical and sensitive narratives that question the stereotypes of feminine identities of girls in grades 204 and 106 at the Liceo Femenino Mercedes Nariño through artistic experiences? In the second phase, the aim was to create spaces for exploration that allow the students to interrogate these gender stereotypes and beauty ideals. For this, different artistic languages such as literature, music and symbolic representation were employed in order to explore diverse forms of aesthetic expression. Finally, in the third phase, discussion spaces were created to show the dialogues collectively constructed regarding the perception of the feminine role in the social spaces navigated by the students. This research has enabled the recognition of diverse perspectives that students have constructed concerning femininity and how these perspectives influence their subjectivities and the configuration of their identities. Keywords : Gender stereotypes, feminine identity, critical and sensitive narratives, discussion spaces.
