Mediación lectora de profesores destacados de distintas disciplinas : ¿Qué podemos aprender de ellos?

Abstract

According to the available evidence, reading teaching practices in Chile is predominantly reproductive and present a limited cognitive challenge. In this context, the research objective was to analyze the perceptions of outstanding primary education teachers regarding their reading mediation practices in different disciplines. Regarding the methodology, the design was a descriptive and qualitative multiple case study. The participants were 11 teachers from 7 public schools in La Araucanía, Chile, to whom in-depth semi-structured interviews were applied and whose coding was carried out in three phases and with a phenomenological paradigm. Results show that teachers focus more on accompanying and motivating reading than on teaching specific strategies. They offer spaces for dialogue to mediate it, although, in general, a generalist and non-disciplinary approach to reading still predominate in them.. The identification of the good practices of outstanding teachers can contribute to the development of the pedagogical practices of other teachers.
