Dispositivo didáctico relacional en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje de la danza afrocontemporánea ecuatoriana

Abstract

Abstract: This research aims to create a methodological strategy based on the relational didactic device for the teaching-learning process of Afro-contemporary dance at the Afro-Ecuadorean Cultural Center Casa Yemayá in Quito, Ecuador. The proposal, based on the approach of Ordoñez (2023), highlights the importance of an inclusive approach that revitalizes cultural identity, fosters transdisciplinary creativity, and promotes critical reflection. The methodological strategy not only seeks to improve the quality of teaching in Afro-contemporary dance, but also to address cultural diversity and promote inclusive and equitable artistic education. Likewise, it focuses on the preservation and valorization of Afro-descendant traditions in a contemporary context, responding to the hegemonic model of dance teaching. The methodology used is qualitative, cross-sectional and with a descriptive exploratory approach, using Participatory Action Research as the main method to involve actors as protagonists in the construction of knowledge.
