Abstract

The following article discusses two high-impact experiences in teacher training in sex education in the province of Cordoba, Argentina. Such experiences are at the dawn of the implementation process enabled by the passage of the national law of comprehensive sex education (26, 150) and contribute to the definition of that which is configured as an emerging educational field. The proposed analysis is positioned in a socio-semiotic perspective to investigate the discursive operations that configure these devices in a subject field path with the contributions of gender and sexuality studies. Accordingly, the article advances in a socio-semiotic analysis that contributes to the understanding and criticism of the first processes of teacher training in sex education.
