Estudios sobre las perspectivas interculturales de la educación y el diálogo epistémico. La Educomunicación como método pedagógico sonoro para la difusión de los saberes ancestrales

Abstract

This study illustrates a theoretical and practical review of the pedagogical method of educommunication in the learning process, with the purpose of spreading ancestral knowledge. The study considers thoughts of researchers that support the educommunicational approach and its integration within the educational curriculum, as well as holistic, integral and lasting experiences. These thoughts justify the fusion of communication, education and ancestral knowledge, with the aim of strengthening individuals’ consciousness and their education. Furthermore, educommunication supports the students’ right to acquire knowledge, produce information and communicate it. The proposal begins with theoretical considerations and then covers the objectives: to experiment in dynamic and interactive teaching environments and to study educators when using technological and communicational tools to generate spaces for participation and dialogue. Methodologically, radio production scripts were developed considering the educommunicative model; as well, research of information and the participants’ creativity were employed. Students of Basic General Education were chosen through a random selection, in order to participate in this project. As a conclusion, it is claimed that this tool opens a path for experiences and significant learning through the creation of radio products with content related to diversity and local and regional realities.
