“INTELIGENCIA EMOCIONAL Y AULAS INCLUSIVAS EN TIEMPO DE PANDEMIA: UNA ESTRATEGIA TRANSFORMADORA MEDIANTE LA COMUNICACIÓN Y LAS NARRATIVAS INFANTILES”

Abstract

As part of the Communication and Children's Narratives
Practicum Course of the Degree in Early Childhood
Education from the Faculty of Education and Humanities
at Luis Amigó Catholic University, the classroom project
called "Literature, a world of possibilities to get to know
me" is designed as an opportunity to approach and
intervene with the Lupines Foundation, a private nonprofit
organization that serves the population with
disabilities. The project involves two categories for analysis
which are emotional intelligence, supported by Goleman
(1995), and social skills from authors such as Caballo and
Verdugo (2005). These categories were the basis of the
study in relation to the management, understanding
and recognition of emotions, seen as a latent need
within the group at the practicum place. In addition,
during the process some considerations from Ministerio
de Educación Nacional, MEN, (2017) were taken into
consideration, some concepts that support the inclusion
process are contemplated such as: Inclusive education
and reasonable adjustments, necessary aspects to have
successful educational plans with students.

Moreover, from the decree 1075 (2015) the importance of
inclusive education is remarked once more, encompassing
difficulties, capacities, exceptional skills, among others,
besides necessary considerations in the educational
process as such.
The methodology proposed consisted of ten interactive
workshops, based on different strategies to promote
Children’s narratives. People who benefited were
15 students between 12 and 18 years old with varied
cognitive diagnoses, so it was necessary to adjust strategies
according to their needs.
