La violencia de alumnos hacia maestros en escuelas secundarias de Colima, México
2014
This article discusses the experiences of secondary school teachers who have suffered
any kind of violence from their students during their teaching career. Through 25
in-depth interviews, carried out in various municipalities of the state of Colima, it
was possible to gather evidence on the ways in which teachers from public and private
schools experienced physical and verbal violence against them, as well as other attitudes
and acts such as: harassment, defiance of authority, aggression against their person
or property, and questioning when enforcing discipline and of institutional rules.
Teachers say that aggressive acts have risen considerably in the last few years. Verbal
violence is the most common kind, but there were also documented cases of a physical
nature, and as time has gone on they have suffered from a larger number of criminal
acts. The situations they described included daily discomfort in their jobs, problems
while teaching and keeping control of the classroom, difficulties in understanding the
attitudes of the teenagers, incapability of reaction during conflictive situations, and a
lack of strategies, as well as a lack of pedagogical resources and institutional support to
deal with this situation.
