This article carries out an academic exercise around the public policy for primary and secondary education that has been implemented by the Republic for over 200 years. It focuses on the variables of objectives, coverage and quality, which are examined from primary and secondary government sources and public figures interested in the subject. Under such policy, education was intended to reach the largest possible number of people and to be solid, relevant, and in tune with the cultural, social and ideological dynamics that characterized a liberal, democratic nation entering capitalism. The explanation for all this historical path is divided into three parts. The first one deals with the independence period between 1810-1821, highlighting the enormous effort made by enlightened Criollos to organize the foundations of an educational system amid the political instability of the time. The second part takes place between the enactment of a law on August 6, 1821 and Decree 429 of January 20, 1893, conceived from the search for the appropriate structural formula to build a useful quality education. The third and last part covers the 20th century, from Law 39 of 1903 until the promulgation of Law 115 of 1994 and its effects to this day. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present article outlines certain observations to consider when embarking on the exercise of an empirical-historical research that leads to the knowledge of the process of elaboration of cultural identity, in the dimension of the social identity that makes a professional group look like and be seen as something unique and cohesive, exercise organized in four sections, the first of them of historiographic nature and the other three of strict conceptual order. On the first of them, it is addressed the dilemma of delimiting the space in which the object of study moves; in relation to the other three, it was decided to relate the research with the following concepts: modernization, profession and social identity; topics whose articulation will depend on the analysis of the events, milestones and dynamics of the annotated period.

In this paper, we present an explanation for the problem of the abstract versions of Peter Wason‘s four-card selection task: modest subjects‘ results when they are confronted with these tasks. Our explanation poses that individuals do not comprehend the task rule as a conditional sentence, but as a biconditional one, causing that subjects do not choose the correct cards. Santamaría presented an objection for any approach that suggests a biconditional interpretation in the task selection. In this work, we discuss this objection based on the apparent primacy of a logical rule in human reasoning: modus ponens. Additionally, we present a study based on Socratic dialogue seminars with a tutorial style, developed by us, to check whether our explanation is viable or not, and discuss the results achieved.

This article aims to reflect on the general trajectory followed by the public and private discourse that identified factors both internal and external that came together in the absence of an elementary/secondary education of high quality between the formation of the Gran Colombia and the end of the period of conservative rule in 1930. It describes and analyzes the unidimensionality of the public discourse in the nineteenth century, focusing on the anachronistic permanence of the method of rote learning in classrooms, compared to the multidimensionality of the private speech of the twentieth century, when variables of medical and economic nature were rescued to explain the roots of this phenomenon.

The Mapuche ethnic group has a wide distribution in the IX Region, the migration process of urban development itself, has made part of the Mapuche people move to the city of Temuco, modifying their lifestyles. The study of Body Mass Index (BMI) is the standard recommended by the WHO to know the nutritional status according to the technical standard nutritional norm in Chile. The somatotype is used to estimate body shape and composition. This study describes the nutritional situation and somatotype of a sample of Mapuche municipal schools of the city of Temuco. We evaluated 292 Mapuche adolescents of both sexes, 154 men (52.7%) and 138 women (47.3%), between 10 and 14 years of age. For somatotype anthropometric method was used described by Heath & Carter while the assessment and classification of nutritional status according to technical standards nutrition. The men presented a mesomorphic somatotype (4.9/4.4). Women are endomesomorfico (5.4/4.3). The nutritional status of the sample has the following results in the case of males and 11.7% were obese and 20.1% were overweight. In checkers, 9.5% were obese and 27.5% were overweight. A comparison by gender differences were found in the endomorphy for women (p = 0.00) and mesomorphy in boys, one (p = 0.00). Not so in ectomorphy that did not differ. However, no differences were found when comparing the somatotype components between the ages of the sample. Obese-genic environment which emphasizes the modification of lifestyle, diet, sedentary effect is equally affecting the Mapuche population as the rest of the school population when compared with samples of students in municipal schools.
