RODRIGUEZ-FLOREZ, Carlos David. Research exercises in the classroom identifying differences among concepts on peace. Alteridad [online]. 2023, vol.18, n.1, pp.113-121. ISSN 1390-8642.  https://doi.org/10.17163/alt.v18n1.2023.09.

In Colombia, the General Education Law 115 of 1994 and Law 1620 of 2013 are elements that allow exploring fields of socio-cultural research in the classroom. The objective of this research is to determine if there are differences between the concept of peace between students. Records of exercises in class of 973 children between 10 and 15 years old were used, in the subject of Peace Chair in Grades 6, 7, 8 and 9 of the José Asunción Silva Educational Institution, Municipality of Palmira, Colombia. The appropriate ethnographic methodology was applied to the educational context for the observation and recording of information. In the cases of the variables Patience, Justice, Agreement, Tolerance, Hope, Protect, the H0 is rejected. In this research it was possible to identify two types of concepts associated with peace: 1. Stable and 2. Unstable. Despite the differences recorded in the analysis, all the concepts are part of the diversity of meanings that our student community associates and applies in the daily process of coexistence. As a whole, this exercise allows the use of indicators to evaluate and adjust pedagogical and curricular elements that are more closely related to the environment and the particular context of the classroom. At an academic level, it allows broadening the understanding of the relationship between the classroom community and the local community, facilitating the application of ethnographic techniques as part of the pedagogical process and enriching the teaching-learning dichotomy.
