Reading mediation practices |
This line of research will include work that addresses the what, how, why and why of mediation practices. reader. We talk about reading mediation practices, following the cultural manager Lucina Jiménez, away from the view of promoting reading as strategies or mere technique for achieving comprehension or reading skills. Practices as expressions systematic and continuous actions that people appropriate in dialogue with their personal and community environment. Practices in plural because they are open and diverse, according to specific contexts and areas. Practices from a decolonial perspective that do not impose a hegemonic idea of what reading is, reading and being a reader, that observe the many and very diverse forms that this form of culture takes. This line of research seeks to identify, observe and systematize the processes that make reading mediation possible, the different reading paths and the experiences with reading, writing and orality of singular and specific communities. |

Contexts, areas and actors of reading mediation |
In this line of research, attention is focused onrecognize and analyze the materialization of reading and its mediation in relationship to the various contexts and actors that carry it out. Without exhausting the possibilities in this approach, there are three areas in which reading mediation practices essentially have a sustained time and space: school, the library and community spaces, each with its own particularities, needs and objectives. Topics such as the forms of school, community or library mediation, profiles of mediators and readers, reading responses, evaluation and selection of teaching materials reading according to reading publics, in-person or virtual environments of mediation, such as the growing practice of Reading on social networks, with varied media (traditional books, e-books, apps, and digital fiction in general) occupy the center of attention of research in this line. |

Communities diverse readers |
In this line of research, the focus is on analyzing the many and very diverse ways in which they form communities of people who have encounters with reading, writing and orality, also diverse. In the different areas in which reading and its mediation occur, “guilds” of readers and mediators emerge that, depending on their affinity, shape a way of life around books, reading and writing, depending on whether they are reading communities for early childhood, for people in situations of immobility, deprived of freedom, young people, the elderly, women, indigenous peoples and a long etcetera. We insist on the idea of diversity as an imprint of this master’s degree that is committed to research that does not impose hegemonic visions or regulations on a living and constantly transforming practice, such as reading mediation and the communities in which it takes shape. |
