Resumen
Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo general analizar desde el nivel de los discursos las construcciones y
significados que conforman el conocimiento pedagógico de los profesores universitarios sin formación pedagógica formal, del área de ciencias básicas, que desarrollan cursos teóricos y que además son considerados por sus estudiantes como excelentes en su labor docente en la Universidad de Costa Rica.
Se utilizó un método de investigación que se basó en técnicas de corte cualitativo, mismas que pudieran profundizar en las percepciones y expresiones de quienes conforman el espacio educativo en la formación profesional en las carreras de la Facultad de Ciencias Básicas, la cual tiene cinco escuelas.
Entre las principales conclusiones están:
• El abordaje del saber pedagógico no puede dejar de lado la dimensión personal y disciplinar de que
quién ejerce la docencia. Lo anterior se fundamenta en el hecho de que como actividad inminentemente
humana la educación sugiere la interrelación de estas dimensiones. Los esfuerzos por apoyar el
desarrollo pedagógico del docente universitario requieren considerar esta situación.
• Los procesos de selección de los documentos universitarios también se ven impactados por su interdimensionalidad, queda explícito la necesidad de revisar no solo el dominio conceptual si no también las
capacidades: comunicativa, de interacción personal y de concepción del acto comunicativo. Al mismo
tiempo es necesario revisar las bondades de los mentores como orientadores y modelos de quienes se
proponen como futuros docentes.
• Los resultados muestran que en particular los docentes seleccionados por los estudiantes sobresalen por
un enfoque pedagógico que trasciende el enfoque tradicional.
• Las limitaciones en el desarrollo del saber pedagógico sugieren un papel fundamental en el área administrativa.
Su naturaleza coadyuvante en los procesos educativos permite generar fluidez y facilitar su
concreción. Sin embargo las respuestas de los docentes entrevistados no dan cuenta de esta capacidad.
ABSTRACT: The main objective of this research is to analyze, from the level of discourses, constructions and meanings that shape the pedagogical knowledge of university professors without formal pedagogical training, in the area of basic sciences, who develop theoretical courses and who are also considered by their students as excellent in their teaching work at the University of Costa Rica. We used a research method based on qualitative techniques, which could deepen the perceptions and expressions of those who constitude the educational space in professional training at the School of Basic Sciences, which has five schools. Among the main conclusions are: • The approach of pedagogical knowledge can not leave aside the personal and disciplinary dimension from professionals which practice teaching. The above is based on the fact that as an eminently human activity, education suggests the interrelation of these dimensions. Efforts to support the pedagogical development of the university teachers requires to consider this situation. • The processes of selection of university documents are also impacted by their interdimensionality, it is explicit the need to review not only the conceptual domain but also the capacities: communicative, personal interaction and conception of the communicative act. At the same time, it is necessary to review the benefits of mentors as counselors and models of those who propose themselves as future teachers. • The results show that in particular the teachers selected by the students stand out for a pedagogical approach that transcends the traditional approach. • The limitations in the development of pedagogical knowledge suggest a fundamental role in the administrative area. Its coadjuvant nature in educational processes allows to generate fluency and facilitate its concretion. However, the answers of the interviewed teachers do not account for this capacity.
