Abstract
This article reports a study carried out about teacher-student interaction in a public school in the early years, in the city of Santiago, Chile. The study performed a quantitative analysis of the frames of images captured by a mini cameramounted on eyeglasses of a group of 18 students. The selected frames were those that the teacher appears in thestudents’ visual field. The analysis was developed from the concept of proxemics and the results show that there aretimes when the classroom teacher interacts with students at a closer level and, in others, there is a greater distance.Furthermore, it was possible to identify differences between boys and girls regarding the proxemic patterns of visualinvolvement in the interaction.
