El equilibrio como de enseñanza de la ciencia y música a una comunidad Tikuna en el Programa Todos a Aprender

Abstract

This report presents a pedagogical account and reflection derived from participation in the Ministry of National Education’s (MEN) program ´´Tutorias para el Aprendizaje y Formación Integral´´ (PTAFI), implemented in the rural Indigenous community of Nazaret, located in the Amazonas region. The program aims to improve educational quality in rural areas by supporting pre-service teachers, with a focus on holistic education. The methodology was based on a social and educational context analysis, a review of national regulations regarding rural and ethnic education, and the implementation of experimental classroom activities. An educational proposal was designed around the creation of a center of interest integrating music and science, specifically through the study of physical balance and sound, as a way to connect scientific knowledge with cultural expression. Key results included improvements in students' understanding of basic arithmetic operations (addition and subtraction), increased engagement in musical and scientific activities, and a better comprehension of physical phenomena such as balance. Structural challenges faced by the community—such as infrastructure and accessibility—were also identified. The study concludes that the integral and context-sensitive approach strengthened learning from an intercultural perspective, emphasizing the importance of connecting science with artistic expressions rooted in the local environment. It also highlights the need to care for community infrastructure and to reflect on the impacts of climate change in the Amazonas region.
