Resumen
The situation experienced by education systems in Latin America and the entire world is the product of the results obtained from the management of educational policies and the contextualization of education for the development of the regions. For this reason, we describe below some aspects intended to identify the work of teachers in this set of changes that make education a fundamental pillar of contemporary society. To understand the current dynamics the work of teachers is going through, this document presents three important challenges for teachers: a) Teacher participation in educational policies, analyzing the situation of some Latin American countries and their progress in terms of teacher ties in the public educational agenda, b) Academic training in teaching work: this challenge is consolidated as a key point in teacher qualification and we examine the objectivity of this training in the transforming function of education, and c) New competences in the teaching task, perhaps this situation is a common denominator that, with the passing of the 21st century, has been established as an answer to transform education from the classroom, taking into account the contexts in which the globalized world is moving forward. Ultimately, the conclusions reached after these analyses are included, together with the bibliographical references that make this writing.
