Aportes de liderazgo comunitario desde prácticas pedagógicas. Experiencia y reflexiones de acompañamiento 2019-II – 2020-I.

Abstract

The continuous training and updating for the teachers of the Faculty of Education at the Santo Tomás University occupies a fundamental place in the exercise of leadership for participation, empowerment and social projection, where the substantive functions are articulated and the communities are impacted. Because of our methodology (traditional distance with technological mediation) we can approach and influence broad sectors of the national territory, close to the context of teachers in training (students, practitioners) and vulnerable communities. These interventions and interaction empower the teacher in training in the management of concrete situations of the daily life of the educational communities and their relationship with the environment, the authorities, other institutions and experiences. The training strategies used by the University favor the empowerment, acquisition or strengthening of teaching competences, the confrontation of theories with reality so that a community intervention project can be organized, managed and evaluated that responds to the specific social needs of each context where the practice is carried out.
