From aesthetic thoughts to pedagogical practices: Notes about a teaching experience

Abstract

This article contains compilations derived from the author's teaching practice during the last decade. The analysis is presented from a sensitive perspective to gather, analyze, and rethink concepts from an aesthetic approach, given that this field is not widely explored in pedagogical studies in Colombia. Initially, the text will compile and redefine concepts to later construct the idea of the teacher as an intermediary and the relevance of artistic practices in educational processes. Then, experiences are collected through open-ended surveys that give voice to students present during various moments of the author’s training-practice process. Finally, by applying theoretical ideas to various findings about this teaching practice, the results are analyzed with the hypothesis of a potential impact of teaching on society through a sensitive relationship with students.
