This narrative inquiry study aims to unveil the incorporation of policy agency within the construction of teacher identity of pre-service teachers in their academic practicums. Drawing on a critical-sociocultural approach to narrative inquiry, language policy, and teacher identity, the narratives of five students of an English teaching program in Medellín, Colombia, were examined. Their reflections and decision making on foreign language policies regulating their pedagogical practices at various schools show their social and critical awareness. Teaching represents a high moral load for them as they embrace a humanistic perspective. However, their narratives also pose challenges to language teaching programs in helping pre-service teachers to build micropolitical agency supported on solid theoretical knowledge to participate in policymaking. On the one hand, their narrations of the policy appropriation process they undertook show their frustration and disappointment in trying to participate when policy structures and other policy arbiters were close to them. On the other hand, when policy structures and arbiters openly allowed their policy participation, their actions and reflections focused on methodological concerns but rarely addressed social or critical awareness regarding curriculum design and development. Therefore, supporting pre-service teachers in strengthening their identities with solid theoretical constructs should be a priority because they will build micropolitical agency to overcome political tensions and negotiate their policy participation.
The purpose of the research is to recognize the impact of pedagogical academic management on the educational quality of school organizations in the municipality of Santa Rosa de Osos, Medellín, Colombia and whose findings contribute knowledge to improve pedagogical and teaching-learning processes. The paradigm is historical -hemeneutic of qualitative type and as a research strategy the case study is privileged. In this order of ideas, academic and pedagogical processes are related to the quality of the educational institutions studied. It is expected in the immediate future to integrate the results in the reformulation of projects, policies and programs that seek to improve the quality of education.
El escenario de esta investigación es el Colegio Jesús María; Institución en la cual se observa cómo los docentes de preescolar están enseñando las matemáticas y cómo incorporan el juego en las aulas de clase.

La metodología utilizada en el proyecto está en marcado en el paradigma cualitativo con un enfoque hermenéutico en tanto lo que se busca, es analizar la incidencia del juego en el desarrollo de las nociones lógico matemáticas en las niñas de pre-jardín B.
El presente texto tiene como objetivo reflexionar sobre el papel de la interdisciplinariedad en la formación avanzada a partir de las discusiones académicas de los integrantes del semillero de investigación [ÍN] Ínter/Nos (durante el año 2022) - Escuela de posgrados de la Universidad Católica Luis Amigó (Medellín, Colombia). Este es un estudio cualitativo con un enfoque hermenéutico. El texto muestra: A) Una perspectiva interdisciplinar para la comprensión del mundo relacional y de las ideas; B) Experiencias de los investigadores y cómo estas contribuyen a la discusión y comprensión de saberes desde diferentes perspectivas; C) Un camino de oportunidades y réplicas investigativas en el campo avanzado. Se concluye con la invitación a labrar caminos en la academia a través de la educación avanzada en áreas que den respuesta a necesidades actuales y no pasadas.
