Propuesta de Enseñanza-aprendizaje en Estudios Sociales para el Quinto año de Educación Básica de la escuela “Alfonso María Borrero”, año lectivo 2014-2015

Abstract

The research is based on a teaching-learning proposal in Social Studies based on activities with a critical-constructivist focus and applied during the Third Block of the School Year in the Fifth Year „EGB‟ of the School “Alfonso María Borrero.” The Traditional Education that is based in the textbook and the memorization persists in the Schools in spite of the effort of the Ministry of Education to change these practices, therefore this proposal tries to prove that the pedagogic practice and didactics from alternative focuses are feasible regardless of pressures of time or demand in the presentation of qualifications. Methodologically, it was carried out a diagnosis in which the traditional practices were observed; then two working groups were organized, the first one in which the proposal was applied and the second that continues with the usual work; finally, the results were analyzed. The alternative proposal based on critic and constructivist pedagogy, alternative to the traditional work, demonstrated that the activities were completed in the established times and the academic results were better.
