Project of deepening high school education at colegio heladia mejía: Progress and perspectives

Abstract

This article, in the form of an educational experience, presents some considerations about the progress made after eight years of implementing the LEADERSHIP FOR SUSTAINABLE LIFE PROJECT MANAGEMENT project that guides the deepening core of secondary education at Heladia Mejía IED school. Comprehensive pedagogical support and diverse offerings in the subjects of Entrepreneurship, Research, Financial Mathematics, and Fundamentals of Mechatronics, based on the XXI century competencies, socio-emotional skills, and SDGs, with successful application of PBL, have allowed students in grades 10 and 11 to develop projects articulated with the four subjects that constitute their degree work. These projects contribute not only to advances in science and technology but also facilitate articulation with higher education and/or the job market. This has contributed to the formation of young people with human quality who, by building their life project, will transcend in society as competent citizens.
