Sowing knowledge, harvesting experiences

This book gathers reflections and pedagogical experiences arising in rural and urban scenarios in the department of Huila, Colombia, as a result of teaching practice processes in public educational institutions. Through three stories focused on the implementation of the "Viva la Escuela" program in La Jagua (Garzón), the practice in the Gabriel García Márquez Educational Institution and the inclusive experience in Promoción Social, it is shown how teaching, beyond transmitting content, implies creating human bonds, recognizing diverse contexts and transforming social realities. Each experience reveals the importance of adapting didactic strategies, strengthening fundamental learning and promoting an inclusive, critical and participatory education. The book seeks to inspire teachers and future teachers to understand the school as a community epicenter where knowledge is sown, empathy is cultivated and collective opportunities for social change are built.
