Methodology for a postmodern approach to transdisciplinary learning communities.

Abstract

Studying communities from a postmodern approach is complex. However, doing it with a correct and organized methodology facilitates the analysis and study. In this way, a methodology called “process dynamic spiral” is proposed. This was applied to the transdisciplinary learning community of the VLIR-UOS program of the Bolivian Catholic University “San Pablo” in the Cochabamba region. It is presented in four levels of analysis. Each one facilitates the identification of the elements that, later, will be the guidelines that will govern the study of the communities in future research. Therefore, to approach, from a postmodern view, to the communities, it is important to apply the proposed methodology to identify the guidelines that will allow understanding the communities to study them better in the future.
