Instagram como recurso didáctico para desarrollar la escritura creativa: caso microrrelato

Abstract

[eng] Reading and writing represent two of the most significant skills for human development. The communicative capacities of people depend, to a large extent, on these activities. In this sense, social networks on the Internet offer great opportunities for education professionals, especially teachers of Language and Literature, to develop teaching-learning sequences. Aware of this reality, this article proposes a set of activities that promote creative writing. In general, the objective of this text is to offer a didactic proposal that promotes the use of the social network Instagram as a didactic resource for the development of creative writing competencies of micro stories. It is concluded that teachers should promote the implementation of these resources in their pedagogical practices and thus partially overcome the spatio-temporal and generational barriers. The Instagram social network can function as a didactic resource based on the proper planning of pedagogical activities that include its use.
