Production of narrative texts in the history classroom: lexicometric analysis of an interdisciplinary proposal

Abstract

Within the framework of an experience of service-learning with interdisciplinary character, the UCSH collaborated with the development of disciplinary competences of universal history in seventh grade students of the Los Bosquinos school in Maipú. For this, a didactic module was carried out that guided the writing of narrative texts related to unit 3 of the program of studies. The objective of this work was to show the impact in the development of disciplinary competences in the students of said institution through a lexicometric analysis that allows to compare the corpus generated in the pretest and posttest using the Iramuteq tool. The results indicate that the texts elaborated from a project focus and written in a procedural manner show an increase in the presence of disciplinary lexicon, which is directly related to a greater mastery of the study area.
