Los estudiantes tienen algo que decir: tejer otros territorios posibles en el IED El Paraíso de Manuela Beltrán

Abstract

This project arises from the cycle of pedagogical research and innovation, framed within the line of research Geographic Education, Teacher and Citizenship Training of the Francisco José de Caldas District University, developed in the IED El Paraíso de Manuela Beltrán internship scenario (Ciudad Bolívar-Bogotá) during 2023 to 2024. In the process of knowing the daily life of the school through the teacher's diary, the background and the state of the art, a research object is constructed that questions how, through the spatial experiences of 5th grade students, citizenship training can be influenced by providing identity, belonging and participation in their neighborhoods. The development of pedagogical research is carried out through information taken from photography workshops, personal cartography, a field trip and the construction of a teaching booklet. Among the findings is the recognition of the territory as the setting where students' daily activities take place, thus forming an existential relationship with it; field trips as a means by which students can construct meaningful learning; and finally, the potential of the teaching booklet as an instrument for establishing other types of affections with the territory and thus, weaving other possible realities.
