Caracterización de las capacidades educativas en la institución educativa «Cerca de Piedra»

Abstract

The objective of the study is framed as follows: "To identify the ancestral moral virtues that converge in the ethical development of the youth in order to enhance their quality of life in the current context of the Cerca de Piedra community (Pacheco, 2020)." To achieve this, we construct a three-fold analytical framework that encompasses Nussbaum's capabilities theory (2012-2017), Bauman's concept of fluidity and instability within a liquid society (2013-2016-2017), and the educational proposition of critical pedagogy, rooted in Paulo Freire's principle of conscientization and its liberating function (1982-2005).

Additionally, our chosen methodological approach follows the phenomenology of practice as proposed by Max Van Manen (2003). This approach allows for a nuanced exploration of the contextual nuances, giving prominence to the researcher's perspective. Our aim is to describe the inherent needs of individuals who coexist within both the rural and educational communities. This description, in turn, facilitates the establishment of criteria for the political, educational, and ethical realization of the community.

In essence, this article contributes to a diagnostic examination of the community in terms of what individuals can achieve and becoming within their environment (Nussbaum, 2017). With regards to the coexistence of citizens and their quality of life, the document presents alternative methods of reconciliation, drawing from extracurricular school dynamics. These strategies take into consideration anecdotal narratives that depict the socio-emotional conditions of certain students, aiming to establish potential guidelines for interventions that promote the human development of the individuals who share both the territory and the academic life of the Cerca de Piedra Educational Institution.
