Resumen
[ES] Los temas transversales se encuentran en una situación muy difícil hoy en día. Sabemos que son
extremadamente importantes y damos por hecho que deberían de introducirse en la enseñanza dentro
de clase pero aún no está del todo claro qué temas son los adecuados a tratar y la manera en la que
podemos enseñarlos. El principal objetivo de este trabajo es precisamente intentar resolver esa incógnita.
Se ofrece una definición clara de lo que al tema respecta junto a los principales motivos por los cuales se
debería de implantar dicho tema en clase, además, se deconstruye el sistema educativo en general para,
así, poder proponer una mejora y con ello dar formas en las cuales podríamos introducir estos temas
transversales en las aulas. De hecho, aunque no de una forma muy exhaustiva, se dan ejemplificaciones
de actividades como modelo para llevar a cabo en un futuro animando así a futuras investigaciones.

A clear definition of what the topic is about is given together with the main reasons why it should be introduced in the classroom, and the educational system in general is deconstructed in order to propose an improvement and thus give ways in which we could introduce value-laden topics in the classroom. In fact, although not in a very exhaustive way, examples of activities are given as a model to be carried out in the future, thus encouraging future research.
