Pedagogical mediation and parallel text: an enriching experience

Abstract

This essay addresses the experience related to the elaboration of a basic text, mediated pedagogically in the subject of Environmental Chemistry, as well as the lessons and learnings experienced by students in the construction of their parallel texts. A pedagogically mediated educational text addresses the content and how to express it in a clear, accessible and creative way. It is also important to emphasize the relevance of not losing sight of the speakers, as active subjects in the conscious construction of their learnings. In this same order, three aspects are essential in pedagogical mediation: treatment from content, form and learning. These elements need to be present at all stages of the base text design. Other elements that we cannot fail to consider are: the contextualization of the themes with data and situations related to the profile of the race, as well as the encouragement towards an investigative attitude. In this way, as university educators we will be contributing gradually to make the learning process a playful, creative, pleasant and beautiful activity.
