The student podcast as a pedagogical strategy of education for peace in the El Santuario neighborhood of the city of Barranquilla, Colombia

Abstract

The objective of this research is to design a pedagogical strategy that promotes education for peace for the vulnerable population of the El Santuario neighborhood in the city of Barranquilla, Colombia. The El Santuario neighborhood is one of the poorest areas of Barranquilla and one of the places with the highest rate of insecurity. Due to the above, an investigative process was developed with the high school students of Colegio Corazón del Santuario, through the methodology of research, action, and participation. With the theoretical contributions of Jares (2002), Tinto (2010), Nussbaum (2002), Ainscow (1998), and Vega (2018), a pedagogical strategy was consolidated through which the students of the Corazón del Santuario School designed reconciliation experiences from podcast creation. The results showed that the development of research with a focus on research, action, and participation, in which the community assumes a leading role in solving problems, facilitates the transformations required in processes of social innovation. In the same way, it was shown that the use of digital resources to promote teaching practices allows for increasing the pedagogical impact in specific contexts
