Pedagogical Disruption in Secondary Education through Instagram: #Instamyths, a Case Study

#Instamitos, un estudio de caso

Abstract

This text studies an educational proposal that used Instagram in an analogical way in Secondary Education Spanish Language and Literature. The purpose was to learn from the voices of its own participants how the innovative educational experience is developed, what are the limitations and possibilities of the Secondary Education stage to carry it out and in what ways the students learned, participated and dialogued in it. A case study was conducted in which data was collected over three months in an Andalusian school for At-risk students through observation, group interviews and shared field notebooks. The conclusions show that the proposal was disruptive without necessarily being technological, that the processes of collaborative or shared reading allowed the educational act to be converted into full social experiences and that linking educational practice to a research process helped to overcome certain limitations that usually exist at this stage.
