El cuerpo en el aula: estudio de caso sobre interseccionalidad, sexualidades y diversidad humana en la pedagogía universitaria

The objective of the study was to evaluate the pedagogical experience developed in the sociology of the body and sexualities course at the Universidad Nacional in Costa Rica, as a didactic and evaluative approach strategy, which recognizes and recovers the intersectional problematization of the body as a political space. The research methodology is based on a feminist epistemological perspective, with a qualitative approach that uses the technique of documentary analysis through the case study. The main results include the assimilation of knowledge and the deepening of the intersectional perspective through the technique of open presentation; the relevance of offering a course belonging to the sociology career to students from other careers to promote the understanding of sexualities from different disciplines; as well as the opportunity for validation and recognition of human diversity to encourage dialogue and a culture of peace. It is concluded that the pedagogical proposal that places the body as the central axis, allows building an exchange of situated knowledge, which in turn problematizes the shame and violence that have been historically used in educational spaces.
