El papel del maestro en la transformación educativa ante un escenario de incertidumbre: Reflexiones desde y para México
The role of the teacher in educational transformation in a scenario of uncertainty: Reflections from and for Mexico

Summary/Abstract: Today’s world has a markedly Dynamic character which demands the Mexican educational system as a whole, but specifically the schools where the new teachers are formed, as well as the classroom teaching practices, to be transformed to face that reality. We recognize the only unfailing agent that is able to generate that change is the teacher who embraces a critical pedagogy and who also knows the science, pedagogy and philosophy to exert a reflective practice. A critical and transforming teacher is formed in teacher education schools, developing and improving what a teacher who takes that role must have. These qualities are not attained by means of simple experience, what is truly necessary is that he or she obtains philosophic referents that allows him or her, first, to reflect on the impact of good teaching practices, then, become an agent of change. Additionally, he or she must contribute to the construction of an emerging philosophy that would help him or her solve real problems, such as the one that COVID-19 generated, where we witnessed that the educational authorities left aside this philosophic reflection by sustaining rigid, unwavering, and traditional conceptions of the curriculum.
