Abstract
Oral communication as an axis in the school curriculum in Chile is a relevant issue for the Mapuche indigenous communities of the Araucanía Region, especially because orality is a source of knowledge and knowledge and skills transmission for these people. Although this axis is included in the official curriculum, it is taught and assessed using Western educational methods. This study aims to identify and describe components of oral communication, whose inclusion is necessary in schools with Mapuche and Western-chilean students. For this, the study was participatory based on the dialogic approach-kishu kimkelay ta che, through a review phase of documentary sources, and a phase of work with teachers who perfom in rural and urban indigenous context. Among the main results, the epistemic distance between the orality of the ministerial programs and the experience of the teaching staff is identified, as well as methodological resources, both didactic and evaluative, whose incorporation is important in classroom practices when carried out in educational contexts with indigenous population.
