Contribution of the praxeological model in the citizenship competences of higher education

Abstract

This reflection arises from the central agenda in the doctoral thesis of the Metropolitan University of Education, Science and Technology, UMECIT, which aims to describe the impact that praxeology has on the development of citizenship skills in higher education, illustrating aspects of social responsibility, formative research, Saber Pro tests, training of graduates and curricular criteria in UNIMINUTO; directly relating to the two central themes. The methodology developed is qualitative-reflexive. In this way, significant contributions of the praxeological model are identified taking into account its form of application in each phase, in addition to the tools it provides through the relationship between theory and praxis, the systematization of experiences and the social vision it projects. In conclusion, based on this academic reflection, the praxeological model contributes and positively impacts the development of citizen skills due to its comprehensive training method, although there are some problems and needs regarding the central axis studied, which are challenges rather than problems. for those who are teachers and students who develop their work under the methodology of praxeology.
