The Contribution of the New Mexican Culture to Education for World Citizenship(Sinéctica, Revista electrónica de educación; no. 60) Year of publication: 2023 Author: Gloria Esther Briceño Alcaraz Corporate author: Sinéctica, Revista Electrónica de Educación A couple of years ago, UNESCO suggested transforming educational models based on an in-tegral and humanist paradigm in order to train new generations with a social and civic di-mension, based on human rights. In this essay we propose to analyze the work of education as a preferential instrument not only to develop traditional school skills, but also as an ac-tion to form citizens with a sense of responsibility and social self-awareness that promote a culture of peace. The citizen-subject represents an identity or discursive construction that is forged in the social framework in which it is situated, always in tension between individual freedom, autonomy and collective normative frameworks (Cerda, 2004), hence the interest in approaching from a critical perspective of discourse analysis (Van Dijk, 2014) to the pro-posal of the new educational model of Mexico called the New Mexican School (2022) and open the discussion on this pedagogical model and the formative fields that affect education for global citizenship. 
Training for Citizenship in Gender Equality at Elementary Education(Sinéctica, Revista electrónica de educación; no. 60) Year of publication: 2023 Author: Denys Serrano Arenas | Azucena de la Concepción Ochoa Cervantes Corporate author: Sinéctica, Revista Electrónica de Educación Gender equality is a purpose from educational policies aimed to eliminating sociocultu-ral inequalities that limit the exercise of children's rights. At present, gender stereotypes that legitimize the roles exercised by girls and boys that limit the forms of participation persist, promoting different levels of exclusion in school life. The objective of this work is to analyze the perceptions of a group of sixth grade students, about how they consider they should participate in school dynamics due to their gender condition, to detect tho-se stereotypes that influence the practice of their participation. A descriptive study was carried out using a Likert-type questionnaire to 64 students. The results show that gen-der stereotypes are reproduced that provide children with greater ease and freedom to express themselves, as well as to make decisions. Modifications in the care roles were also identified, within which, they begin to have greater interference. In parallel, it was found that these stereotypes represent structural difficulties for the self-recognition of the par-ticipatory capacities of girls. It is recommended to take participation as a fundamental element for the exercise of citizenship in gender equality.
