Teacher training in education for peace, in Escuela Normal Superior La Cruz – Nariño

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the teacher training in education for the peace process that is developed in the Escuela Normal Superior, in the municipality of La Cruz, Department of Nariño. To do so, the socioeconomic dynamics of the student population are characterized; subsequently, the teaching and learning strategies that are implemented in the complementary training cycle in the area of education for peace are identified and, finally, the strengthening of the training of teachers in the construction of a culture of peace is proposed, based on the teaching practice. Thus, through a qualitative methodological strategy, and through the case study of the municipality of La Cruz, it was possible to examine the pedagogical principles on which the training of teacher is based and to propose strategies that will enable teachers to help students in their pedagogical needs in terms of conflict resolution, school coexistence, reconciliation and student participation, consistent with the environment that surrounds them.
