    Enriching cross-sectoral collaboration to foster inclusive cultures in schools: a Model to address the needs of diverse Chilean Students
    (2024) Vidal, Veronica; Mendive, Susana; Gómez Zaccarelli, Florencia; Pozo-Tapia, Francisca; Narea, Marigen; Wachholtz, Daniela; Melo, Carolina
    Inclusive education involves the interaction of diverse actors from different societal sectors, such as education, health, and policy. Inclusion laws and regulations in Chile are relatively new and have been taken as a regional model. However, the efforts to implement them have revealed some structural difficulties that must be discussed. This conceptual analysis article aims to provide insights to enrich cross-sectoral collaboration to foster inclusive cultures in Chilean schools. Considering the OECD Analytical Framework, which describes a systemic approach, we provide definitions for the critical components of the model and discuss the advances and challenges of current Chilean public policies in this field -including the Chile Crece Contigo and the School Integration Programs (SIP)-, the Chilean education system functioning, the social contexts, and students' needs and supports based on the available evidence. Building from inclusive education literature and previous experiences, we delve into the model to address the needs of students with disabilities, social and cultural disadvantages, students belonging to the indigenous population, and students with a low socioeconomic level to propose action guidelines with a particular focus on integrating inclusive practices at the school level.

    Teacher leaders' noticing of argumentative orchestration
    (2025) Solar Bezmalinovic, Horacio; Gómez Zaccarelli, Florencia; Martínez, María Victoria; Ortiz, Andrés; Arriagada Jofré, Victoria Paz; Mursell Montenegro, Kurt Heinz
    Teacher leaders (TLs) play a pivotal role in monitoring and fostering teacher awareness to enhance the quality of teaching practices, particularly in domains like mathematics education. Within the mathematics curriculum across various nations, this monitoring effort has been channelled towards nurturing crucial competencies such as argumentation among students. While existing literature underscores the significance of instructional support in fostering student argumentation, it’s imperative to recognize that developing a keen sense of noticing extends beyond merely understanding students’ thinking processes. It involves a multifaceted approach encompassing elements like deciphering teacher responses. In the context of a professional development initiative aimed at supporting TLs to promote argumentation within mathematics classrooms, we delved into the participation of novice TLs in a program session. Our goal was to assess their capacity to identify critical events crucial for supporting argumentation in teaching and learning scenarios related to mathematics. During the session, TLs were presented with a video depicting a student argumentation scenario, tasked with recognizing key events and interpreting them in the context of fostering argumentation through instructional support. We employed an adapted noticing scale van Es (in: Sherin MG, Jacobs V, Philipp R (eds) Mathematics teacher noticing: seeing through teachers' eyes, Routledge, Abingdon, pp 134–151, 2011) to evaluate their responses, explicitly focusing on critical events within argumentative orchestration. Findings show that TLs demonstrated an estimable level of proficiency in recognizing essential events of argumentation. Notably, a majority showed an ability to establish meaningful connections between identified critical events and a framework for argumentative orchestration. This suggests promising potential for TLs to support and facilitate argumentation within mathematics education settings effectively.
