Resumen

Existe un consenso cada vez mayor sobre la necesidad de preparar a las generaciones futuras en entornos de colaboración y de cooperación. Esta forma de entender la educación traspasa fronteras en búsqueda del trabajo en red. Hay una amplia variedad de bases teóricas que apoyan la creación de redes y subrayan su potencial en el ámbito educativo. A nivel internacional, existen pocos estudios comparativos que aporten las formas que adopta el trabajo en red en la educación. En este artículo se presenta una revisión con ejemplos de varios países que permite saber más sobre la evolución del trabajo en red en diferentes partes del mundo. Los ejemplos seleccionados fueron elegidos tras una revisión de la literatura internacional especializada (anterior a Covid-19). A continuación, se llevó a cabo un proceso selectivo de fuentes documentales basado en criterios temáticos y temporales, con investigaciones publicadas principalmente en la última década y contenidos relacionados directamente con el trabajo en red colaborativo en contextos educativos diversos. En los últimos años, se han desarrollado múltiples iniciativas en entornos escolares que han combinado intervenciones de arriba hacia abajo, medidas de rendición de cuentas y cambios en las disposiciones de gobernanza. El artículo se centra en las propuestas de países cuyas redes de colaboración presumen de una larga experiencia, junto con una síntesis de los principales avances registrados en la materia.
