dc.description.abstractLatin America and the Caribbean are several years behind the learning results of the OECD countries evaluated by PISA. A closer look at educational processes shows an long road ahead towards a pedagogy that better connects with the needs and feelings of students, as well as to respond to the new challenges posed by society. There is a great opportunity offered by an unprecedented body of research evidence suggesting ways to guide and accelerate educational improvement. The existence of meta-analyses of large volumes of research in education makes it possible to identify pedagogical practices with high impact in contexts of socio-educational vulnerability, and low requirements on infrastructure or technology. SUMMA developed the Dialogic Classrooms Program based on the articulation of some of the most effective strategies for improving learning: collaborative dialogue, metacognition and formative feedback. The program was developed and piloted between 2020 and 2023 in a group of schools in northern Chile. This paper reviews the main rationale, components and preliminary results of this program. It analyzes the program's potential to synergistically address student learning, professional development and collaborative relationships between teachers and pedagogical leaders, and the promotion of interaction within classrooms and schools. It does so by taking into account the urgent need to build societies capable of dialogue and collaboration, considering and valuing the diversity of their members.
