Un estudio de caso analítico sobre las prácticas pedagógicas, el currículo y la inclusión educativa en el contexto educativo de Montería, Colombia

Resumen

This article examines the findings of a doctoral research study on pedagogical practices and inclusive education at School Antonio Nariño in Montería, with the aim of understanding how didactic approaches and curricular policies shape the school’s response to diversity. The study adopted a hermeneutic perspective within a qualitative approach and was developed as a case study through semi-structured interviews, a focus group, classroom observation, and document analysis. The findings show that teachers recognize inclusion as a right and as an ethical horizon for teaching; however, that understanding is not always translated into anticipatory pedagogical planning or stable institutional agreements. A persistent gap was identified between normative discourse, the lived curriculum, and everyday classroom life, expressed in curricular rigidity, a predominantly administrative use of individualized plans, intermittent institutional support, and a teaching tendency to address diversity through immediate responses. It is concluded that inclusion has not yet been consolidated as an organizing principle of schoolwork; therefore, teacher training, interdisciplinary support, inclusive assessment, and the pedagogical organization of the institution need to be strengthened.
