Agogic sciences for innovation in teaching management at the "AIDA GALLEGOS" educational unit

2023 , Basantes M.O.C. , de Rodríguez T.M.L. , Iglecias J.A.T. , Solís G.M.C. , Hinojosa J.D.C.

The lack of knowledge of a pedagogical strategy based on the Agogical Sciences and the psychobiological stages and particularities of the students' age has caused low academic performance of the students, causing little interest in learning; Therefore, it became necessary to consider the objective of determining the knowledge about agogic sciences in the innovation of teaching management that the teachers of the “Aida Gallegos” educational unit have. The methodological approach was focused on the quantitative and descriptive research, where a survey was applied through a closed questionnaire to the 34 teachers of the institution. The results found showed that there are weaknesses in the knowledge of agogic strategies, so the curriculum must be aligned at all levels; This awakens the motivation of teachers to apply strategies in which psychobiological elements can be developed in students. It was concluded that authorities must take into account educational levels and sublevels to direct them towards innovation and strengthening educational management. © Autor(es); 2023.

BENCHMARKING USING LEARNING ANALYTICS

2022 , Freire Pazmiño, Julio

Pedagogical research has been based on seeking alternatives that improve the teaching-learning process and the comparison of methodological positions have had priority. This research aims to compare the learning analytics in two groups with different curricular conceptions for decision-making in the transformations of the teaching-learning process. For them, a quantitative methodology was used with its own methods such as the logical historical, the inductive deductive and the synthetic analytical, in the statistical order, the descriptive and the inferential. The main results were that the activities in the parallel that used active teaching-learning methods and collaborative work in small groups had better results than the parallel where traditional teaching-learning methods were used, in addition the activities in both parallels were improving the quality. of the grades as the class period progressed. © 2022, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.

Web Page to Promote the Values of School Coexistence in Basic Education Students

2023 , Becerra, Eulalia , Escobar L.

The incorporation of technologies in educational settings has led to changes that have affected the behavior of people, in education it is due to a current need to address this issue of significant relevance such as the lack of practice of ethical values in educational institutions, where it is perceived that students do not apply values. The main objective of this work was with 57 students whose age fluctuates between 10 and 14 years, for which an observation sheet was applied To know if the students apply or not values in the institution, the analysis of the results showed that there are problems of coexistence in the classroom, and in some cases acts of violence among the students are included, conflict situations that in many occasions last longer. Beyond class hours, almost all students show undesirable behaviors in some period of their development, this pattern varies according to the teacher, parent, situation or period. For this reason, the need arises to create web pages as an instructional and pedagogical resource to improve communication in the teaching–learning process of basic education students. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

2023 , Alulima, Lidya , Mena-Alvarado E. , Chacón-Castro M.

In the present-day context, educational institutions have difficulties maintaining technological equipment available to the academic community. Therefore, the technology tools’ implementation for teaching Physics and Chemistry, through virtual laboratories in applications such as Chemlab and Modellus, is pertinent. The objective is to analyze Chemlab and Modellus simulators as didactic strategies that allow integral learning between theory and practice, applied to 200 high-school students of a public educational institution. The methodology is based on a mixed approach to gather information followed by an analysis and interpretation of the results, which are relevant to the use of qualitative and quantitative data based on the measurement of the variables. The subsequent results show satisfaction in the processes according to a survey of professional experts in the area and students who demonstrate to be satisfied acquiring and understanding contents and topics related to the environment reducing the difficulty degree, awakening interest, achieving a balance between theoretical concepts with experimentation and solving exercises, consolidating acquired competencies such as communication and technological skills, critical thinking, autonomy, collaborative work, leadership, decision-making, and resolution capacity. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2023.

Factors Influencing University Dropout in Distance Learning: A Case Study

2023 , Núñez Hernández, Corina , Buele, Jorge

In the field of higher education in Ecuador, there is a phenomenon where students abandon the career, they were initially enrolled in. This research article aims to identify the determining factors that influence dropout, analyzing sociodemographic variables and economic, technological, institutional, and academic variables. The methodology used is action research built from educational practice. A survey was used to address several factors applied to 260 students of the second, fourth, and seventh levels of undergraduate study at a private institution. As a result, it was found that the most determining factor for a student to abandon their university career in the distance mode, with 72.31%, is the economic factor. Finally, it is concluded that students' permanence is affected mainly by socioeconomic aspects, which cause economic resources, illness, lack of time, and academic performance to be the most representative factors when deciding whether to remain or abandon a university career. This information increases the bibliography that deals with student behavior to search for alternatives to work on students' permanence. © 2023, North American Business Press. All rights reserved.

ICT-based learning assessment: understanding its educational dimension in the context of the Bachelor of Science in education degree program of the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo

2021 , Cáceres Mesa M.L. , Suárez Monzón N.

The Bachelor of Science in Education degree program at The Universidad Autónoma Del Estado De Hidalgo (UAEH) shows learning assessment results that, for their complexity and significance, challenge teachers in their interpretation as a fundamental tool for better understanding and improving the teaching-learning process. The current scenario calls for the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), as a strategy to promote a follow-up process and individualized feedback of the tasks assigned, thus fostering transparency and effectiveness of the process and, in turn, highlighting the formative dimension of assessment. This study aims to analyse, through a qualitative methodology, how teachers use technology to assess students’ learning. It is backed up by the focus group technique, which generated exchange of experiences; it also produced teachers’ criteria that were triangulated. The main results show that applied technologies can be instrumental in assessment practices, thus encouraging autonomy, independence, awareness and improvement of students’ learning. © 2021, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.

Impact of the pandemic on school dropout: Multidimensional analysis

2023 , Núñez-Naranjo A.F. , Núñez Hernández, Corina , Escobar-Bernúdes D. , Berruz-Uca I.

This study, driven by the need to identify the reasons why primary and secondary school students drop out of their studies pre and post-pandemic, with both endogenous and exogenous causes. The main objective was to analyze the impact of the pandemic on student dropout. An interpretive paradigm with qualitative methods was employed, including qualitative content analysis, and a systematic literature review was conducted using various inclusion and exclusion criteria. The main results revealed that the abrupt shift from in-person to virtual education led to student dropout, as traditional teaching methods attempted to adapt to new technologies, and many teachers encountered technological barriers related to geographical location, economics, among others. In conclusion, student dropout is a global issue influenced by various factors and variables that have led to different models aimed at reducing or eradicating it. © 2023 IEEE.

2024 , Lizzie Pazmiño Guevara , Asdrúbal Emilfo Ayala Mendoza , Jorge Álvarez-Tello , Marco Duque-Romero

The manuscript proposes, in the current educational context, pedagogical practices influenced by technology, promoting innovative approaches in teaching using the logical framework approach (LFA) to enhance essay writing skills. To propose a methodology for the development of an academic essay on the national reality of Ecuador in higher education. A comprehensive review of 1554 publications in SCOPUS between 2020–2022 were conducted, selecting 20 relevant ones to characterize 4 evaluation criteria. As well, there is a didactic proposal that includes research in theoretical and methodological phases, utilizing the logical framework approach as the main tool. An exploratory and participatory research on the Ecuadorian reality is promoted, incorporating criteria of educational applications related to gamification, collaborative work, flipped classroom, and creative thinking. As result of the review, four evaluation criteria are identified: gamification, creative pedagogical practice, flipped classroom, and collaborative learning. Creative pedagogical practice stands out with 42% of the experiences, focusing on the use of technology and innovation. The proposal's phases and the screens of the national reality subject with which students begin the teaching-learning process for each mentioned pedagogical practice are presented. Finally, a didactic methodology based on the logical framework approach that integrates pedagogical practices and the use of Information Computing Technology for the development of academic essays on the Ecuadorian reality has been designed. The implementation of these educational applications in the proposed didactic methodology is suggested to enrich the students’ learning process and encourage their participation and reflection in the elaboration of academic essays about the Ecuadorian reality.
