EL CINE COMO HERRAMIENTA PARA TRABAJAR LA DIVERSIDAD CULTURAL: INVESTIGACIÓN EN AULAS INTERCULTURALES

Abstract

This article presents an intervention program in which cinema is used as aneducational resource to change the attitudes of a group of students facingcultural diversity. For the design of the research, we worked with a controlgroup and an experimental group with which two different instruments wereused: a questionnaire to measure such attitudes in the pre and post programdevelopment period and another questionnaire, applied in an intermediateperiod, for the follow-up of the groups. Research shows that response changeshave been more prominent in the experimental group than in the controlgroup, especially in the items that refer to personal and educational aspects; in the same way, positive data are obtained regarding the attitudes of theparticipants in the field of cultural diversity.
