Principios del constructivismo social en la propuesta pedagógica institucional, en la Unidad Educativa Nuestra Señora del Cisne de la ciudad de Quito

Abstract

Abstract: Through this work it is intended to carry out an analysis of the different situations of the teaching-learning process of the students of the Nuestra Señora del Cisne Educational Unit of the city of Quito, in order to put constructivism into practice in teaching. Constructivism presents a prior knowledge to form a new knowledge, nothing comes from nothing; The learnings are not copied, nor are they transmitted. In this pedagogical current we can assume that the student is the protagonist of their education without leaving behind the teacher who becomes a tutor, a guide to learning for their classroom, that is, the student becomes an investigator of their own learning. Social constructivism is based on the interaction that the individual has with society, his experiences already known give way to a new one with the experiences of the people around him. His knowledge grows with the questions that he asks himself and those around him, the individual knows the world through the experiences lived by his environment and by himself. Furthermore, the principles of constructivism are not evident from a conceptual point of view but based on experiences, new knowledge through lived realities, human-society interaction, are based on living with the environment.
