De la comunicación a la educación: la dimensión pedagógica del diálogo cívico
Resumen
Este estudio versa sobre la adaptación de un dispositivo deliberativo (Civil Dialogue®) al mundo escolar, conservando el diálogo respetuoso, la escucha atenta y el entendimiento mutuo, pero transitando de una lógica comunicacional que enfatiza la autenticidad y la espontaneidad, a una que prioriza la dimensión educativa del proceso. El Civil Dialogue® es una técnica deliberativa estructurada sobre temas controvertidos que surgió como respuesta a la creciente polarización en la retórica política, los medios de comunicación y las redes sociales, y como alternativa al debate tradicional combativo y antagónico. El Diálogo Cívico Gamificado consiste en un proceso orientado, guiado e informado que ayuda a los estudiantes en la construcción de discursos, el reconocimiento de perspectivas diferentes, el trabajo en equipo y la toma de decisiones. Considerando el contexto educativo, proponemos cuatro variaciones al modelo original: el juego de rol, la investigación, el trabajo en grupo y la participación democrática. Esta propuesta tiene relevancia para la didáctica de las ciencias sociales y la educación patrimonial porque los temas controvertidos, el abordaje constructivo de los conflictos, los procesos deliberativos, el protagonismo infanto-juvenil y la gamificación se están convirtiendo en estrategias pedagógicas eficaces para la educación ciudadana.
