Estrategias para desarrollar la mediación docente en las aulas de EGB

Abstract

In this degree project, it is developed the topic of pedagogical mediation, understood as a process inherent to the educational act.

Educational mediation implicates doing adaptations needed to develop the effective communication within the educational interaction. For this reason, educational mediation pretends to develop a critic and reflexive thinking, placing the mediated agent in a self-development position, capable to understand social issues and to acquire a position on these.

Some specific aims of the investigation are to identify some constructivist approaches about the teacher mediation and the significant learning; to analyze the teacher’s role as mediator in the Basic General Education learning process, and to identify strategies to develop mediation within the classrooms. For their accomplishment, it has been worked methodologically with bibliographic investigation.

The results of the bibliographic research show that the educational mediation, considered as communicational interaction, represents a way to generate meaningful learning. The reviewed documentation reveals the existence of teaching strategies which may be a support in the classroom, so, through mediation, the active participation of students, and the building of their knowledge could be encouraged, as well as to contribute to the learner’s development.
