Recreando la tradición: propuesta de transpodidáctica textual a partir de A saia da Carolina

Abstract

This paper aims at designing a didactic and pedagogically grounded proposal based on the textual transpodidactic model (TTM), using the traditional song from the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula, A saia da Carolina, as its starting point. The proposal is specifically intended for secondary education and adopts an interdisciplinary approach that integrates musical, linguistic, and performative dimensions, within an active and student-centered methodological framework. The main instrument consists of a structured learning situation organized into several phases that guide, in a progressive manner, a process of textual transformation, from the analysis of the original piece to the creation of a new artistic product. This final product takes the form of a dramatized script combining spoken and sung elements, designed for stage performance. Regarding participants, the proposal is conceived for secondary school students working in cooperative groups; however, it remains a theoretical design rather than an empirically implemented study. Among the didactic implications that derive from the proposal, it is worth noting the potential of the TTM as an effective methodological tool for promoting meaningful learning and the integrated development of communicative, creative, and cultural competences. In addition, the study emphasizes the pedagogical value of oral tradition as a resource that connects curriculum content with students’ cultural heritage in a coherent and context-sensitive way. Nevertheless, the need for future practical implementations is acknowledged in order to validate the proposal and assess its effectiveness in real educational contexts.
