Formación para la innovación curricular en el posgrado a través de proyectos integradores

Abstract

The results obtained from the implementation of the Master’s program in Educational Innovation of a Mexican public university, aimed at training competencies for curricular innovation by carrying out integrative training projects, are analyzed. The content of 22 projects is analyzed, carried out between 2016 and 2021, in various educational context from primary to higher level, involving different populations of educational actors. It was found that the projects have focused mainly on the design of newly created curricula, addressing topics such as the teaching of English, Mayan culture, technological tools, reading comprehension, digital literacy, active methodologies, among others. Innovation traits adopted include curricular flexibility, student-centered teaching, and the inclusion of information technologies. It is concluded that the incorporation of these projects in the postgraduate curriculum has promoted the development of the intended competences, and that the innovation traits adopted in the projects are consistent with current trends, and compatible with national and international education agendas, aimed at ensuring learning opportunities for all, in permanent, inclusive, equitable and quality manner.
