ENSAYOSP137752023-02-06T22:20:30Z Is There Room for the Use of Animals in the Teaching of Biology? Reflections from an Ecological and Multilevel Perspective ¿Hay espacio para el uso de animales en la enseñanza de la biología? Reflexiones desde una perspectiva ecológica y multinivel De Giuseppe, Bianca Camila Zapico, Martín Gonzalo pedagogía biología ecología manipulación de animales ética pedagogy biology ecology animal handling ethics In this essay, we will approach the problems related to the manipulation of animals for the teaching of biology. Based on an ecological model, a hypothesis is held that the use of animals for the teaching of biology is not only unethical, but also not profitable, effective, and it does not favor the development of fundamental social skills, such as empathy, even reaching such an extent that students exposed to these situations can manifest adverse psychological effects. To support this statement, we will go to theoretical, practical, and experimental evidence. We conclude, from our analysis, that the elimination of practices that involve the manipulation of animals would favor not only the animals themselves and the students, but society as a whole, since they would be teaching from the first years of schooling, students with ecological intelligence and animal empathy, traits that favor a friendly and ethical treatment towards the environment. En este ensayo abordaremos las problemáticas vinculadas a la manipulación de animales para la enseñanza de la biología. Partiendo de un modelo ecológico, se sostiene la hipótesis de que el empleo de animales para la enseñanza de la biología no solo no es ético, sino que tampoco es rentable, eficaz, ni favorece el desarrollo de habilidades sociales fundamentales como la empatía, llegando, incluso, a manifestarse efectos psicológicos adversos en estudiantes expuestos a dichas situaciones. Para la apoyatura de este enunciado, se acudirá a evidencia teórica, práctica y experimental. Concluimos, a partir de nuestro análisis, que la eliminación de las prácticas que involucran la manipulación de animales favorecería no solo a los mismos animales y a quienes las ponen en práctica, sino a la sociedad en su conjunto, pues se estarían formando, desde los primeros años de escolarización, sujetos con inteligencia ecológica y empatía animal, rasgos que favorecen un trato amable y ético hacia el medio ambiente.
