From the learning communities towards a community of reading teachers

De las comunidades de aprendizaje hacia una comunidad de docentes lectores

Critical reading is a necessity today, because we are in the information age and it is necessary to possess skills that allow the individual to read and understand the message of the text to relate its meaning to the reality that surrounds it. For this reason, it has become a challenge for the school to train critical readers, which means that teachers provide students with strategies and tools that allow them to understand different types of text. Based on this need, and based on the PTA of the Ministry of National Education, a study was carried out from the action research of the qualitative paradigm that sought to transform the learning community (CA) into a community of teaching readers. In order to achieve this goal, we started with an exploration of the needs of reading, then discussion groups were applied with teachers, a scenario that allowed us to unveil the conceptions that teachers had about reading, and in this same scenario, The socialization and implementation of several reading strategies from a sociocultural perspective, which were then observed in the development of the teachers' classes.
