We must take into account the meaning of the word mediate throughout the length and breadth of the
We must emphasize at this time the importance of knowing how to
teach students to be aware of everything that a conflict implies and the
different factors that compose it.
The teacher as a mediator has to be in charge of establishing communication
effective with students, to do this you must: listen to their needs and enable
guidance and constructive feedback. Through the use of various strategies
pedagogical to adapt the content and teaching methods to the individual characteristics of students, thus promoting meaningful learning and
personalized (Duque and Rodríguez, 2023).
The mediating function of pedagogy establishes a bridge between the learner and the
knowledge, between what he knows and what he doesn't know, between his experiences and concepts,
between their present and their future, impregnating them with epistemological knowledge
learners to understand their particular context in a much more
complex.
Therefore, the pedagogy of mediation provides valuable elements in the various
forms of transmission, formation and intervention that the adult can adopt before the
educating. Society needs the mediation of education to advance towards
values of meaning and healthy coexistence. The features of this education and the areas of
development mark the north of this open and inclusive analysis. To do this, it is
training of mediators is essential (Belmonte, 2017).

Pedagogical mediation enables a comprehensive commitment to training processes
of the student and the educators and is aimed at building educational projects
Inspired by a humanizing vision of education, which brings with it a series
of challenges that exalts the characteristics of a new role as a teacher (Assmann,
2002; Labarrere, 2003):
- Mastery of the discipline being taught,
- Ability to create and implement relevant strategies,
- Ability to value and use reality, experiences, experiences of

5 Key aspects of pedagogical mediation
In the plane of pedagogical mediation where an internal and transdisciplinary vision is created by the educational staff on the teaching and learning processes and, from there, other aesthetic forms of generating, evolving, gestating, reconfiguring, transferring and facilitating the use of the
knowledge while promoting new forms of education in which we get involved and involve other people and the other. To do this, five key aspects must be enhanced/taken into account (Alzate-Ortiz and Castañeda-Patiño, 2020):
The psychological: from which elements such as the
motivation, metacognition, meaningful learning and the ability to
communicate appropriately.
The philosophical: compromises the possibilities of promoting educational reflection
critical and open, around learning as the center of problematizations
of the pedagogical knowledge that the teaching staff can carry out, based on
their curricular actions.
The politician: from where the creative action of educating and the
communicate to emancipate oneself and emancipate the students from the stage
of education itself, so that together they acquire the skills to form a free, participatory, democratic citizenship that respects the common good. Education is in itself a political action (Freire, 1972).
The pedagogical: to consolidate an inter and transdisciplinary vision of the
Teaching and learning from the logic of communicability and aesthetics
as facilitating entities of contemporary educational processes,
taking into account the biological essence of the natural well-being of individuals
who become protagonists in any mediation process.
The technological: which allows mediation to develop from compression and
pedagogical use of the media, which brings together a number of tools
that allow the teaching staff to streamline the teaching processes and
learning through the improvement of communication channels and
implementation of other educational aesthetics that are more attractive to students.
