Interculturalidad, educación y lenguas indígenas: Una pedagogía para desaprender

Intercultural education we propose, will be underpinned by the cultural matrix of people and, consequently, there are imparted knowledge and problems are addressed, the feature will be supported by the conceptual body of thought whose origin is the own culture, with its historical depth and vision of the world, product of everyday practice and knowledge of the environment in which it is built, all of which, in a constant dialogue with contemporary universal thought. Consequently, indigenous middle schools will have to develop their pedagogical task, not from orthodox frameworks of traditional pedagogy, but from the needs of indigenous and non-indigenous world, so that the education of children has to be based on the characteristics own regions and in the task of solving the problems of welfare and community development, incorporating culture to the individual and collective consciousness to form a field of meaning and meanings that are part of the needs of a people, and education, understood as a relationship of knowledge, is a kind of mediation between the social and personal awareness. That is, culture is the reference establishing the social consciousness found in the subjects and these, condensed culture based on the references incorporated into your consciousness and are existing educational practices in which they participate.
