PRESENTACIÓN
La priorización del currículo para la Educación, responde a la necesidad del Sistema Educativo de articular, y armonizar
estrategias, ante la nueva realidad que en materia educativa nos marca la Pandemia Mundial, desatada por el Covid-19.
Esta propuesta de priorización curricular, como parte del Plan de Acción de la Estrategia de Meduca, tiene su fundamento
en la Constitución de la República de Panamá, capítulo 5, y en los fines y principios establecidos en la Ley 47 de 1946,
Orgánica de Educación, que forma parte de las bases legales del currículo nacional.
Así, en aras de hacerle frente al cumplimiento de la Estrategia Nacional de Educación 2020/2021, y cumplir con éxito los
múltiples desafíos que, en materia de ciencia y tecnología, tiene el sistema educativo panameño, presentamos a todos los
actores, responsables de la ejecución de esta propuesta de planificación curricular priorizada.
Esta planificación, es un proceso progresivo y flexible, que debe adaptarse a la situación actual que vive el país. Con base
al currículo priorizado en situación de emergencia, los docentes podrán elaborar guías didácticas y módulos para
reforzar el aprendizaje de sus estudiantes.
El currículo priorizado será vigente hasta el período escolar 2021, se aplicará para todos los estudiantes del sistema
educativo panameño. Se espera retornar al currículo vigente para el período escolar 2022; sin embargo, la disposición
del tiempo y el abordaje de los contenidos será crucial en el logro de aprendizajes significativos. La aplicación, el
razonamiento, la contextualización de los objetivos, de manera sencilla, precisa y clara es fundamental.

JUSTIFICACIÓN
El currículo priorizado, es una planificación para dar continuidad al proceso educativo. Se fundamenta principalmente en el
derecho del estudiante para: conservar la salud individual y colectiva, adquirir el pleno desarrollo humano sostenible, poner
en práctica las habilidades sociales, científicas, tecnológicas, de emprendimiento y en fortalecer la conciencia social y
ciudadana.
Presentamos el currículo en situación de emergencia, priorizando los objetivos de aprendizaje y contenidos, de acuerdo al
diagnóstico, visto desde un enfoque por derecho, otorgando relevancia a la relación con las competencias e indicadores,
realizando los ajustes necesarios a la situación actual.
Para cada competencia sugerida en el diagnóstico, se presentan indicadores que permiten el nivel de logro de estas y
señalan los tipos de evaluaciones que permiten alcanzarlas.
El currículo priorizado, adaptado a la situación de emergencia, se presenta como una guía para saber ¿qué enseñar?, ¿qué
aprender?, ¿cuándo hacerlo?, ¿cómo evaluar los aprendizajes?, utilizando todos los recursos que se tiene a disposición,
priorizando competencias, adaptando y manejando tiempos y metodologías acorde al contexto de la emergencia y a la
realidad geográfica y necesidades específicas de la población estudiantil y sus familias, ejerciendo el derecho a una
educación para todos en todo momento.
5
La vida ha cambiado para todos, hay un nuevo contexto, nuevas necesidades, nuevos retos, intereses y demandas de
aprendizaje, a los cuales se debe responder. ¿Podemos enseñar de la misma forma que lo hacíamos antes de la
emergencia?
PROCESO METODOLÓGICO PARA LA INTERVENCIÓN DEL CURRÍCULO EN SITUACIÓN DE EMERGENCIA
Para la intervención del currículo en situación de emergencia se establecieron cinco (5) pasos. Los mismos se orientan en
los derechos fundamentales declarados en la Convención sobre los derechos del niño en situación de emergencia. Se
aplicaron desde la etapa de preescolar hasta la etapa de educación media, priorizando las necesidades de aprendizaje por
derecho, de acuerdo al nivel de impacto de la afectación, según el diagnóstico realizado.
Para cada etapa se priorizaron las competencias involucradas en los aprendizajes, así como sus capacidades que se deben
desarrollar con la intervención y sus respectivos indicadores.
Los derechos de los niños se establecen universalmente. Se realizó un diagnóstico para cada etapa del sistema educativo,
se establecieron los derechos fundamentales que deben priorizarse ante una emergencia (Derecho a la vida, a la salud, a
educación, a la familia…). Posteriormente, se consideraron las necesidades de aprendizaje vinculados a los derechos de
los niños por etapa, se describió el nivel de la afectación y la vulnerabilidad de los niños en tiempo de emergencia.
Estas necesidades de aprendizaje, deben adquirirse a corto, mediano y largo plazo y durante toda la escolaridad de los
estudiantes.
Del análisis del diagnóstico situacional, se han detectado las competencias básicas, genéricas y algunas específicas, que
se desarrollan durante toda la escolaridad y que responden a los fines de la educación nacional y a los objetivos de la
educación panameña.
