Distance Education: Possibilities of Inclusion and Student Participation

Given the social confinement measure by Covid-19, educational institutions have opted for the distance education modality. In Mexico, one of the strategies implemented in basic education was the Learn at Home program, which consisted of disseminating videos with educational content of study plans and programs through television. This study analyzes the participation forms promoted in television videos of the educational program "Aprende en Casa", which was promoted in response to schooling during Covid-19 pandemic in Mexico. A descriptive and interpretive study is presented, based on the content analysis method from 153 sample of high school video-classes. The results show that the participation which is promoted with adolescents determines a passive role in their learning, which exposes homogenizing pedagogical practices that take distance from an inclusive perspective education. These results allow us to notice a reproduction of traditional educational practices in creation of content for the distance modality. It is recommended to assume technology as a key to connect multiple realities and worldviews to construct new learnings.
