Educational Commitment to Transformative Communication : Emerging Challenges in Innovation

Fredy Alexis Rodriguez Fiquitiva, ; Paola Andrea Noreña Gil, ; Cecilia Andrea Acosta Sánchez,

Synopsis

The publication is framed in the academic journey that, between 2018 and 2023, has made the Social Communication program of the Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia, and in which it is possible to identify its epistemological evolution and the strengthening in its research purposes and interests. It is also possible to identify aspects related to pedagogical and formative innovation with a significant impact on students, graduates, and professors in the educational community.

Although this state-of-the-art is framed within a specific timeframe, it is also important to mention that it is based on the program's fundamental principles and appeals to the experience that for nearly 30 years has made it a training initiative in the field of communication that currently proposes new ways of understanding the communication scenarios in light of global dynamics driven by technological immersion and exposure to diverse narratives stemming from participatory processes involving communities.

A publication of these characteristics is valuable not only to the program's educational community but also becomes a starting point for all those interested in exploring the field of communication from the transformation perspective, which aligns with the contemporary discourses of societies around the world.
