Resumen
Se presentan los resultados de una investigación que se enmarca dentro del modelo investigación-acción, en donde se planteó la necesidad de indagar sobre mecanismos para promover el liderazgo pedagógico en docentes de inglés en servicio, egresados de la carrera Bachillerato en la Enseñanza del Inglés de la Universidad Nacional, Sede Regional Brunca (UNA-SRB). Este estudio se constituyó de cuatro etapas: detectar el problema, diseñar la propuesta, evaluar dicha propuesta y analizar los datos de esta evaluación. La propuesta consistió en formular las Redes de Educación Continua (REEDUCO) dirigida a docentes de inglés para proveer un espacio de aprendizaje, comunicación y retroalimentación paralelo a las funciones de docencia, con el fin de fortalecer su liderazgo pedagógico. Para alcanzar los objetivos, se diseñaron cinco módulos de trabajo junto con su respectiva guía para facilitadores, y se implementaron dos de estas sesiones de trabajo en talleres. Esto dos talleres y módulos fueron evaluados por dos expertas y el grupo de participantes. Dentro de los principales resultados se destaca que la UNA-SRB, no posee ningún programa para dar seguimiento a egresados de la carrera en estudio, así como tampoco a docentes que se encuentran laborando y que han sido graduados de otras instituciones públicas y privadas. Además, que la totalidad del profesorado de este estudio afirmó estar muy interesado en temas de liderazgo pedagógico.
The results of a study are presented within a research-fieldwork model which analyzed mechanisms to promote pedagogical leadership among English Teachers currently in service that had graduated from the Brunca Regional Headquarters Campus at National University of Costa Rica (UNA-SRB) with a Bachelor ́s Degree in English as a Foreign Language. The study consisted fo four stages: detect the problem, design a proposal, assess the proposal and analyze the information obtained from this assessment. The proposal consisted in establishing a Continuous Education Network (REEDUCO) aimed at English as a Second Language Teachers with the goal of providing educational, communication and feedback opportunities regarding their teaching performance to strengthen pedagogical leadership skills. Five models were designed to attain this objective. Each model included a corresponding Facilitator ́s Manual. Both models were then used in the workshops. The two workshop modules were assessed by two experts and the group of participants. Among the main findings, it can be highlighted that UNA-SRB lacks a follow-up program for graduates in this discipline. Neither does it keep track of the other public and private higher learning institutions current teachers graduated from. In addition, all of the teachers involved in this study stated that they were very interested in pursuing teacher leadership skills
