2. Epistemic processes and deliberation with UPEL-IPB teachers, about creative didactic strategies

Abstract

Promoting epistemic and deliberation processes on the design and application of creative strategies with teachers of the Pedagogical University Experimental Libertador, University Institute of Barquisimeto (UPEL-IPB),, was the intention of this research work. For that, the dialogical interaction with the co-investigators was promoted, who reflected and made decisions about their teaching work. The sociocritical paradigm, the qualitative research and the action research method guided the investigative process in a recursive and reflexive way. The evidence was compiled through participant observation, discussion groups, focused testimonies, and field journals. And the evidence analysis and interpretation was assumed like an innovative, reflexive and flexible process throughout the research. Finally, the analysis and interpretation of the evidence revealed that the epistemic processes and deliberation about the design and application of creative strategies allowed the teachers to reflect and evaluate their own practice for improve it.
