Collaborative work in virtual forums, windows to the dialogic attitude

Abstract

The implemented didactic strategy in the political rationality forum of the course "Philosophical problems of UNAM’s Bachillerato a distancia (B@UNAM) is presented. This strategy revisits the theoretical elements of Coll and his colleagues (2007), Díaz Barriga Arceo (2006), Luna Dávila (2013), and Adela Cortina (2000), illustrating their practical implementation in online educational forums. The significance of these forums lies in their role as an ideal space for fostering collaborative work and cultivating a dialogical attitude. This environment allows students to reach social agreements, enabling them to become conscious and engaged citizens. The role of social networks is also recognized, in this case, WhatsApp, as the platform for real-time debates and subsequent contributions to the online forum. Additionally, there is a proposal to incorporate buttons that enable students to assess their peers' work, further enhancing the learning experience.
