Socialización de los niños y niñas del primero año de educación general básica en tiempos de pandemia del COVID – 19.

Abstract

This case study aims to analyze how socialization processes have developed in high school children in the context of the pandemic caused by the SARS - CoV2 virus. This analysis is based on the understanding of the fundamental role that interaction plays in the development of the child as a social being, since it is in early childhood that children move from the family nucleus to coexist with subjects with whom they share common characteristics and tastes. This problem arises from the need to know the impact that the Covid-19 pandemic has had on early education, since current research has discarded young children, focusing on the commotion it caused in basic and higher education. In order to achieve the proposed objectives, a qualitative methodology was used with techniques such as participant observation and group and individual interviews applied to the teachers. Among the findings we can evidence the constant interference of parents in educational processes, preventing children from socializing normally, generating disinterest in children, who prefer not to interact with their peers. Thus, several challenges faced by the educational community in times of pandemic are analyzed.
