Comparative study of alternative communication systems in the development of communication boards for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Thu, 10 Jul 2025 00:00:00 -0400

An exhaustive research was conducted on the communication systems used by people diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The objective of this article is to identify the systems that allow the development of communication boards in order to identify the one that provides the best environment for the development of communicative language in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). A literature review was used to analyze information from the most relevant articles related to communication systems and a matrix was elaborated to evaluate related characteristics. As a result, a list of dimensions and metrics of the communicational systems was obtained and a comparative table with indicators and a measurement scale was established. A through a technical evaluation of 3 types of users, it was identified that the optimal communicational system for the creation of a dashboard is the TEACCH System with a considerable satisfaction index in design, content, pedagogy and characteristics.

Thu, 10 Jul 2025 00:00:00 -0400

El manejo de la frustración en menores de edad permite desarrollar habilidades como: reconocer, expresar y regular las emociones. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo fortalecer el manejo de la frustración en 13 estudiantes de preescolar del Gimnasio Campestre Nueva Alejandría en Cajicá, mediante la implementación de estrategias basadas en teorías de control emocional y tolerancia a la frustración. Además, busca capacitar a los docentes en el uso de estas herramientas para favorecer la gestión emocional y mejorar el ambiente de aprendizaje. Este estudio adoptó un enfoque cualitativo con alcance descriptivo, utilizando un diseño de investigación-acción para generar un cambio socioeducativo. Se recolecta la información mediante observaciones, listas de chequeo, entrevistas, analizando la efectividad de las estrategias implementadas. Los resultados muestran la efectividad que tienen las estrategias, y como los estudiantes las incorporaron en su rutina, buscando reducir la frustración dentro y fuera del aula. En conclusión, este proyecto de investigación muestra cómo se fortalece el autocontrol emocional en los niños, facilitando el manejo de la frustración mediante herramientas ajustadas a sus necesidades y promoviendo una mejor adaptación socioemocional.

Strategies for Active Teaching of Physics in High School through Low-Cost Experiments

Thu, 10 Jul 2025 00:00:00 -0400

This article presents a literature review focused on active strategies for teaching Physics at the high school level, with emphasis on the use of low-cost experiments. The problem addressed is based on the observation that many educational environments lack laboratories and sufficient resources to carry out traditional experimental practices, which negatively affects the motivation and conceptual understanding of students. From the analysis of 25 studies developed between 2018 and 2024 in diverse educational contexts, active methodologies such as problem-based learning, inquiry learning, simulation complemented with home experimentation, cooperative learning and flipped classroom were identified. The findings reveal that these strategies are not only feasible with limited resources, but also generate improvements in academic performance, attitude towards Physics and the development of transversal competencies such as communication, autonomy and teamwork.

Methodological Strategy for Inclusive Learning Environments in Language and Literature in the second year

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 00:00:00 -0400

The present study aimed to design methodological strategies to develop inclusive learning environments in the second grade. This research contributes to the research line on Didactics of Basic Education curriculum areas at the Bolivarian University of Ecuador. Throughout the study, various methodological strategies were examined to enable the inclusion of students with diverse educational needs whether cognitive, emotional, or social in the teaching process. The research methodology was mixed, with a qualitative and quantitative approach, descriptive rather than experimental. The research was based on theoretical, empirical, and mathematical methods. The population consisted of second-year elementary school students and teachers from the Milton Reyes Reyes Educational Unit. Research instruments were applied to determine criteria regarding the variable. Weaknesses were noted regarding the attention to individual differences and the use of innovative methodological strategies. Therefore, the proposal consisted of a set of inclusive methodological strategies that favored the creation of inclusive learning environments to enrich the teaching of Language and Literature. It was validated through consultation with specialists, whose evaluation, mostly as highly adequate, demonstrated the feasibility and relevance of the scientific result.

This article presents a study whose purpose is to evaluate the consequences of applying the Singapore method as a strategy to promote the mathematics learning process in a fourth-grade class at the Trece de Abril Educational Unit in Santa Elena, Ecuador. This is a quantitative quasi-experimental design that compared a teaching group using the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract approach with a control group taught using traditional methods. The results reflect a noticeable improvement in the academic performance of the experimental group, especially in logical reasoning, concept comprehension, and problem-solving skills. Likewise, a more favorable attitude toward mathematics, enthusiasm for the subject, and a higher level of active participation in class were observed. Errors in interpretation, calculation, and procedure decreased significantly. The perception of the instructors and th s was extremely positive. It indicates a clear contribution to lesson planning, modulation of content intensity and speed, and manifestation of the educational role as a guide. The proposed outcome is the MAMMS–2025 Model. In summary, the Singapore method is an effective teaching strategy that can be applied in public schools to improve learning outcomes and the effectiveness of the teaching experience.

Recreational activities and their influence on the healthy lifestyle of teachers at the Technical University of Babahoyo: an integrative health approach

Norge Naranjo Torres — Sat, 05 Jul 2025 00:00:00 -0400

This study addresses a specific educational issue: the healthy lifestyle of teachers in their professional practice. One of the main theoretical contributions of the research is the introduction of the concept of health-ludic (salúdica), understood as the interaction between playfulness and health, which allows for a better understanding of how recreational activities contribute to the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of teachers. The main findings highlight a strong correlation between the analyzed variables: playful activities significantly influence the improvement of teachers’ healthy lifestyles. It is concluded that it is necessary to create educational environments conducive to collaborative learning and to propose academic alternatives that promote the implementation of playful activities within teaching practice. In this context, it is recommended to encourage practices such as active breaks, framed within a health-ludic approach, to strengthen the comprehensive well-being of teaching staff.
