Vol. 10 No. 2 (2023)
Dear readers, receive our most expressive words of greeting on this occasion that marks the second publication this year of our Revista Científica UISRAEL, which collects the best efforts of researchers whose works enhance the purpose of our university in promoting them to the scientific community and the general public. In this sense, I am proud to bring up the words of the former dean of the University of the Basque Country, Dr. Juan Urrutia, collected by Goñi (2014) regarding universities as centers of research.
This undoubtedly, and in line with Goñi's (2014) opinion, is what characterizes a "new" university where both students and teachers teach and learn, not primarily from texts, but from what Galileo called the book of nature; that is, immersing themselves in the wonderful world of research.

Vol. 10 No. 1 (2023)
Dear fellow researchers, this is a propitious occasion to express our message of brotherhood filled with the most significant wishes for this year that has just begun and that is synthesized in the enjoyment of full health and the realization of professional and personal goals, which will allow the harmonious development of the Ecuadorian family.
To this end, each day must become a purpose of progressive improvement in which our willingness to serve is concretized in palpable actions with a sense of responsibility, in the face of the enormous problems that beset humanity. Our country, as well as the entire Latin American continent, does not escape these situations that delay our development. In this sense, every institution or organization, public or private, must be in line with the Sustainable Development Goals for our planet, proposed in September 2015 by the United Nations, together with different NGOs in the world, within the framework of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development.

Vol. 9 No. 2 (2022)
Investigative teaching benefits the whole of society, in its different fields: public, private, non-profit organizations and as a citizen. It is also part of a citizen’s social responsibility without forgetting that this effort, which is human and transcendent, requires a communicative process, to spread and emit to all the corners of society that product, that contribution of teachers and students towards a better world.
Our "UISRAEL Scientific Journal" follows this line of thinking, which, with its second issue, this year, is consolidated as a stellar contribution in the dissemination of creative and transformative knowledge. Indeed, on this occasion we have eight articles available to our academic and scientific community, which contain, in themselves, a rigorous scientific, methodological and pertinent effort.

Vol. 9 No. 1 (2022)
Dear academic and scientific community, today we prepare, with pride and satisfaction, the presentation of a new issue of our and your magazine, the first edition of this year 2022, in which you can review a series of studies with high research rigor, among which predominate those directed towards the area of education, as a fundamental aspect in the cognitive, moral and spiritual development of man. You will also find others related to pollution, women, suicide and the impact of COVID 19.
It has been an unceasing concern of our university to disseminate the different creations or manifestations of scientific knowledge, which have as their north, to enlighten the community about a wide range of problems that affect the world, and may even give rise to opposing analyses that will enrich the social heritage of knowledge and that, undoubtedly, will have a place in this, your magazine.
Critical thinking implies a search for knowledge through reasoning skills, analysis, decision making and problem solving to achieve expected results. In this sense, research and its dissemination, as an indissoluble key, allow us to promote internationalization, interdisciplinarity, cooperation between different institutions and scientific and technological centers, reciprocal links between universities and the business sector, and, ultimately, a significant contribution to the possible alternative solutions to the problems of the environment.
To disseminate is to make knowledge possible, accessible and understandable, in all its expressions, in the scientific community and in society as a whole, since, ultimately, society is the promoter and beneficiary of scientific production. Hence, universities must, above all, leave their image solidly attached to the fulfillment of this noble institutional mission.
Aware, therefore, of this unparalleled commitment, UISRAEL has always set as its goal that the research disseminated in its journals should rigorously comply with the relevant quality standards. We are honored, pleased and committed, even more, with the production and dissemination of knowledge, with this publication of 11 research papers that we share with you today, which have followed an arduous editorial process.

La tecnología y la academia al servicio del desarrollo sostenible
Vol. 8 No. 1e (2021)Dear academic and scientific community, once again our university is proud to be able to fulfill one of its most sacred objectives, to disseminate knowledge to the ends of a society increasingly eager for knowledge. In this way, and in keeping with all that is new and useful, we publish for your consideration this special edition entitled: "Technology and academia at the service of sustainable development". In fact, this issue contains cutting-edge articles that deal with topics of real interest, where technology, law and academia merge to make known aspects of notoriety in this modern world that feels the need to be updated in the different branches of knowledge.
In this sense, with greater continuity, society, worldwide, is interested in being aware of what is happening in the world, from any of its branches of knowledge, moreover, being also a right, it also becomes a moral duty. To the extent that societies acquire more knowledge in the different areas through which man goes through in his life, in this same sense, he will acquire greater abilities to take advantage of it for his own benefit. Knowledge, in itself, is a means of social development.
Hence, current professional trends are characterized by creating healthy contexts for the emergence of knowledge societies, in order to achieve the benefit of citizenship, by training and guiding people in their various trades or professions, in a catalytic process of efforts, to ensure a better quality of life. In this attitude, it is an honor for UISRAEL to contribute not only from the scientific-citizen formation of its students, but also from the diffusion of all the manifestations that knowledge entails.
We are sure that the reading of these scientific contents will give rise to concerns that will motivate to deepen and reflect on them, in order to be increasingly better citizens, so this material of transfer and dissemination is at your disposal.

Vol. 8 No. 2 (2021)
We are pleased to present issue 2, volume 8, of the year 2021 of the UISRAEL Scientific Journal. In this opportunity we make available to the entire academic community 10 scientific products as a result of researches elaborated with scientific and methodological rigor, and that contribute significantly to various areas of knowledge.
As in all our publications, the works presented have gone through a process of selection, arbitration, correction and edition that are in correspondence with the lines approved by the Universidad Tecnológica Israel, publisher of our journal. In addition, this publication offers topics of diverse nature, highlighting the interdisciplinary characteristic of the magazine, the presentation of problems that affect our country, and with this, results that face them.
In this sense, the first article presented by the authors Claudia Zuriaga Bravo and Ivo Leonel Pereira Díaz, entitled "Oral narration as a pedagogical tool in the promotion of short fiction" aims to facilitate a theoretical and practical bridge between students and the short text, through oral narration as a key tool in this process.
The second article is entitled "The teaching-learning process of grammatical rules at the pre-university level". In it, its authors, Armando Castillo Acevedo, Eraida Campos Maura and Elba Caridad Gómez analyze the current state of the teaching-learning process of grammatical rules in pre-university and its link with the cognitive, communicative and sociocultural approach; for this purpose, a periodization of grammar teaching is made, its link with the discursive-functional approach and some didactic and methodological tools are offered for the improvement of this process.
The third work, under the authorship of María Fernanda Rodríguez Solís and Santiago Alejandro Acurio Maldonado, is entitled "TPACK model and active methodology, applications in the area of mathematics. A theoretical approach". The purpose of this article is to identify innovative technological strategies through the TPACK model, plus the active methodology in teachers of the third years of general basic education for the subject of subtraction with regrouping. With the theoretical basis of the work of Contreras, Tristancho, & Fuentes (2017); who managed to evolve the type of teaching, with a greater intervention of the students, strengthening a different and punctual learning, increasing the analysis and development in mathematics, with the objective of working with the pedagogical and technological model of content (TPACK).
Carlos Eduardo Durán, Marily Rafaela Fuentes and Pamela Sandoval Yuqui are the authors of "Characterization for the linkage with society: case study Parroquia El Quinche", this fourth work had the objective of evaluating the importance of research projects and linkage with society in Ecuador, as part of the substantive functions of higher education. In this sense, it analyzes the actions carried out by students and professors of the Law program of the Metropolitan University of Ecuador (UMET), focusing specifically on the rural parish of El Quinche.
"University philosophy: a current for the construction of meanings in the training of trainers" is the name of the fifth manuscript, in this, its authors: Henry José Martínez, Duglas Ramón Piña and Juhenni Martínez González state that many teachers misuse power in their classrooms and this attitude leads students to perform their activities in a limited way, since the structure, discourse, among other cognitive factors are imposed on them. In turn, as part of the conclusions, they explain that the tools for learning and teaching almost never lead to reflect on the performance of the teacher and the student, in turn, the training lacks strategies for teaching to think from learning to be, learning to do and learning to learn, generating then transforming proposals in accordance with the educational policies issued by the Venezuelan State.
For their part, the authors Nancy Cristina Uquillas and Karen Córdova Vera, with their research "Influencia del filtro afectivo en el desarrollo de la producción oral del aprendizaje del idioma inglés" (Influence of the affective filter in the development of oral production in English language learning), conclude that talking about the affective filter is still a myth, since it has been proven in research that the student requires not only learning the conventional learning processes, but that, for the acquisition of a second language, the person must remain motivated, with self-confidence and without anxiety, so that learning is dynamic and not rigid, as it happens with the acquisition of the native language.
Janeth Díaz Vera, Alicia Ruiz Ramírez and Carolina Egüez Cevallos present "Impact of ICT: challenges and opportunities for Higher Education in the face of COVID-19", in which, as part of the results, the impact on the use of ICT for the development of their academic activities in the modality of online classes at the University of Guayaquil, in times of pandemic due to COVID-19, a global health crisis that includes Ecuador, was analyzed.
An eighth paper entitled: "Computational thinking skills in teachers in training at the Universidad La Gran Colombia" aimed to identify the level of skills related to computational thinking of future teachers linked to the Universidad La Gran Colombia, who want to be teachers and then, establish strategies, generate teaching orientation plans, new curricular proposals, among others.

On the other hand, the essay "The construction of school failure: institutional thinking and practices", presented by Rosa Estefanía Navas Espinosa, compiles relevant information on the subject of institutional thinking and practices associated with the construction of school failure. Among the institutional thoughts are: generalization, idealization of the student, the pansophical ideal, guilt and reductionist conceptions that exclude certain variables that are in constant interaction with regard to the explanation of school failure.
To close, the author Oscar Alberto Pérez Peña, presents the article entitled "Collective rights of communities over their intellectual property: contradictions between industrial property and traditional knowledge". The purpose of this research was to analyze the contradictions generated within the intellectual property protection system when it regulates aspects of traditional knowledge and industrial property. The communitarian character of traditional knowledge is expressed in its close relationship with the communities and social groups that carry it, which makes it difficult to fit into the industrial property system.
The impact of this research, within the scientific community, will allow the rethinking of models and tools to generate intervention proposals that contribute to the solution of certain existing problems in society, related to the topics discussed herein. This knowledge transfer and dissemination material is available to readers, which will strengthen human talent, enhancing competitiveness at local, regional and global levels.

Vol. 7 No. 3 (2020)
Today we celebrate the presentation of issue 03 of the UISRAEL Scientific Journal, the last of the year 2020. In this publication, our scientific community is very pleased to make available 9 articles and 2 essays of interest, as a result of researches elaborated with high scientific and methodological rigor, contributing significantly to various areas of knowledge.
As in all our publications, the works presented have gone through a process of selection, arbitration, correction and edition that go in correspondence with the lines approved by the Technological University ISRAEL, publisher of our magazine. In addition, this issue offers topics of diverse nature, highlighting the interdisciplinary characteristic of the journal, the presentation of problems that affect our country, and with this, results that face them.
In this sense, the first article, presented by Fernando José Castillo and Alicia Ramírez de Castillo, entitled "The right to peace in the educational environment: a contribution to the measurement of conflicts", aims to model the violent characters of students through a practice of mutual coexistence, dialogue and respect, avoiding discrepancies due to racial, religious, political, social, economic or cultural conflicts. This aggressive behavior almost reaches barbarism due to the inability to live together in peace, with values of solidarity, harmony, cooperation, equity and non-discrimination.
The second article, presented by María de Ángeles Bonilla, Jonathan Patricio Cárdenas, Florcita Janeth Arrellano and Danny Fernando Pérez, is entitled "Interactive methodological strategies for teaching and learning in higher education". This study focuses on analyzing through a documentary bibliographic review the most applied and suggested interactive strategies in higher education. With a qualitative documentary approach, 15 articles have been reviewed, 6 of which caused more impact on the research, in turn, through a contrast matrix, 15 interactive methodological strategies with greater relevance to date were determined.
Carlos Armando Tarira, Hugo Parra Sandoval and Mercedes Delgado González are the authors of the third article "Procesos de enseñanza de la función exponencial. A qualitative approach", which was framed in a case study. The informant was a mathematics teacher in an Ecuadorian educational unit; in general terms, a description of the teaching process was made by linking it to the knowledge quartet model proposed by Rowland et al. (2005).
While the fourth article, presented by Masaquiza Jerez Tupac, Palacios Ocaña Adrián and Moreno Gavilánes Klever and called "Administrative management and budget execution of the zonal coordination of education - Zone 3" focused on determining the level of compliance with the budget item allocated to the Zonal Coordination of Education Zone 3 during 2018, in order to thus guarantee quality education to the community, especially to children and adolescents, who are the direct beneficiaries of this service; For this purpose, the methodology used was based on a quantitative approach, since it was necessary to process information from official documents.
The fifth article, presented by Paco Rubén Alulema and Pablo Israel Amancha, is entitled: "Learning strategies applied to the subject Internal Combustion Engines for the fulfillment of learning achievements". The objective of the research was to establish the relationship between didactic learning strategies and their influence on learning achievements in the subject of Internal Combustion Engines (ICM) of the Antonio Carrillo Moscoso and 12 de noviembre Units of the Píllaro canton - Ecuador. In this sense, it was determined that there is a significant correlation in the use of the methodology with the achievement of student learning.
Armando Castillo Acevedo and Heriberto Núñez Rodríguez present the sixth article: "Teaching Spanish as a mother tongue. Theoretical and methodological presuppositions". In this article they present the theoretical and methodological foundations that support this process and some didactic instruments that will contribute to its improvement. Language teaching should be seen as an integrating process that addresses from the relationship between signifier and signified, to its variation in different contexts, so that the teaching-learning of Spanish as a mother tongue is fruitful, and achieves that bilateral character that a language class of excellence should have.
On the other hand, the seventh article, presented by: Lady Andrea León, Amparo Marisol Matailo, Aida Andreina Romero and Cecilia Alexandra Portalanza is entitled "Ecuador: Banana, coffee and cocoa production by zones and its economic impact 2013-2016", this work consists of identifying the zoning of greater production of Banana, Coffee and Cocoa and its economic impact in Ecuador. Zonal planning is a management model with development proposals for different sectors, mainly the productive one due to the binding effect, allowing the decentralization of functions and the specialization of areas of influence for the respective territorial strengthening.
"Labor harassment or mobbing as a causal element of labor accidents" is the title of the eighth article. Its author, Juan Gerardo Ávila Urdaneta, presents an analysis of the influence of mobbing as a causal element of occupational accidents, highlighting the existing problem in the development of psychosocial risks that affect workers emotionally, physically and psychologically nowadays. For this purpose, different expert authors were analyzed, as well as the legal norms of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the Lopcymat, its regulations, the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador, the Ecuadorian Labor Code and the Ecuadorian Penal Code.
In turn, Stephanie Delgado Estrada, Diana Villavicencio Chancay and Karen Hernández Ludeña present "Accreditation and organizational results: the case of the University of Guayaquil", which, as its title indicates, is a case study. Among the most relevant results of this research is the improvement in the academic and research areas, going from a low teaching staff and zero scientific production to teachers with entry by merit-based competition and greater scientific and regional publication, respectively. In addition, it shows the need to focus on key indicators such as planning, research, teaching, relevance, communication with society, according to the results presented by the leaders of the ranking of the best Latin universities.
On the other hand, the tenth work is an essay entitled "Neurodiversity, pedagogies of the minor and subjectivizing singularity: evaluating learning through the perspective of performance in action". Aldo Ocampo González, author, focuses on the understanding of inclusive education and its relationship with educational justice, recognizing that this not only produces new knowledge, but also powerful alterative angles of vision of reality. An ontological and pedagogical conception of the lesser is assumed and it is concluded that inclusion is also a political critique of suspicion, since it tries to return something that constitutes the essence of the pedagogical task, reaffirming a nomadic heuristic nature.
And to close, the last essay of this issue is presented: "Cultural policy in the 21st century: between diversity and the digital environment". This essay addresses cultural policies in the 21st century, specifically those related to the digital environment. The author, Belén Fiallos Quinteros, starts with a brief analysis of the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (UNESCO, 2005). Secondly, it addresses categories and some issues arising from the new dynamics emerging from the contemporary world as a result of globalization, the Internet, technologies and new social processes in relation to cultural diversity and the development of the cultural industry.
The impact of this research within the scientific community will allow to rethink models and tools to generate intervention proposals that contribute to the solution of certain existing problems in society, related to the topics discussed here. This knowledge transfer and dissemination material is available to the readers, which will strengthen human talent, enhancing competitiveness worldwide.

Today we present a new issue of the UISRAEL Scientific Journal, the third and last of 2019. We have gathered here a series of articles that, although not very numerous (as you can see, we are talking about seven papers, the amount that has become usual in each issue of our digital magazine), they do show a scientific rigor -methodological, investigative- and an expository and written quality in accordance with the requirements of current scientific publications. And, likewise, they are in accordance with the lines drawn by the publishing entity of our journal, the ISRAEL University of Technology.
The articles in this issue address, as usual, issues and problems of various kinds that affect not only the country, Ecuador, but often also the region, the continent, the world (see, for example, the article "Legal status of transsexuals in the European Union and Latin America"), and with an urgency of current affairs.
On the other hand, the thematic variety responds, first of all, to the disciplinary variety, that is to say, to themes belonging to different scientific disciplines: jurisprudence, theory of culture, pedagogy, architecture and urban planning, tourism. But we also find thematic diversity within the same discipline, specifically in the field of jurisprudence: three of the articles we offer pertain to the science of law, and all three deal with different topics.
At a time when what has come to be known as "post-truth" is rife with all kinds of apocryphal knowledge and pseudo-science, being able to contribute or insist on truth and science is no mean feat.
It is up to the reader to judge and take advantage of these works.Mg. Paúl Baldeón Egas

A new issue of the UISRAEL magazine is released, in a context in which the university consolidates its steps and directs its course towards higher goals, where quality is the pivot that guides the articulation of the processes in the formation of the future professional.
In the beautiful text "do not stop", the American poet Walt Witman, calls us to contribute a verse to the great poetry of life, which is built with dreams, and warns us about silence as our worst enemy. The UISRAEL journal is part of that verse that our scientific community contributes to life, with the word, the living word, a reflection of intellectual work; with a look at real problems; with proactive and contextualized work.
Responsible for the scientific and academic development of the collaborators, of the professionals from other institutions of higher education who have wanted to put their contributions in our hands, we invite you to read, to learn, to exchange with this proposal that we gladly offer in this issue of the journal.
I invite you to make Witman's verses our own, to contribute a stanza to the writing of this poetry in which we are immersed at UISRAEL. As the poet says: "Do not let life pass you by without you living it". Our pages remain open.

Fortalecer la investigación y la producción científica es uno de los objetivos claves en la Universidad Tecnológica Israel. En este sentido, las líneas de desarrollo y los proyectos institucionales son eslabones que articulan el quehacer científico de esta institución educativa. Al mismo tiempo, la divulgación de sus resultados y el intercambio con investigadores de otras instituciones ocupa un lugar relevante, y la Revista Científica UISRAEL es un medio idóneo para tales fines.
Pero esta publicación trianual, de la que se enorgullece la Universidad, muestra la labor no solo de nuestra institución, sino que se abre a las universidades ecuatorianas y del mundo. Tanto es así que en su corta existencia ya atesora trabajos de colaboradores nacionales y extranjeros, lo mismo de distintas universidades de Ecuador que de otros países de América Latina y Europa.
Por otra parte, las temáticas relacionadas con áreas y problemáticas sensibles y variadas, que necesitan la mirada inter-, multi- y transdisciplinaria, así como la diversidad de sus propuestas, que van desde un artículo científico, una reseña o un ensayo, manifiestan cada vez más la originalidad y calidad de los números.
Bienvenidos a este nuevo número de la Revista Científica UISRAEL, que abre sus puertas e invita a todos los profesionales dispuestos a crear conocimientos y divulgar sus resultados en función del desarrollo económico y social del país.

Vol. 4 No. 2 (2017)
Hoy entregamos un nuevo número de la Revista Científica UISRAEL, el segundo del cuarto volumen correspondiente al año 2017. Este número persiste en el propósito de ofrecer una enjundiosa muestra de la producción científica y académica de nuestra Universidad, con la misma voluntad interdisciplinaria, multidisciplinaria y transdisciplinaria que nos anima desde el principio.
Como ya se va haciendo costumbre, presentamos en este número una serie de artículos (cinco en total) sobre muy variados temas que abarcan diversos campos de la actividad humana con enfoques que van desde lo puramente teorético hasta la implementación práctica de propuestas. Todos, eso sí, estrechamente vinculados con situaciones y problemáticas acuciantes y de extrema actualidad tanto en el ámbito nacional como en el internacional, como pueden ser los problemas de género, el enfrentamiento a las catástrofes naturales, o la situación de la investigación en el Ecuador y en América Latina.
El artículo que abre este número de la revista se titula “Test para la investigación científica: aportes para su diseño”, y ha sido elaborado por el Dr. Manuel Villarruel-Fuentes y la Lic. Elvira Monserrat Villarruel-López, ambos mexicanos. Estos autores abordan en su artículo una problemática esencial para el desarrollo de las investigaciones: el diseño de los cuestionarios o test. Y lo que resulta más importante, ofrecen una serie de recomendaciones para superar las falencias conceptuales y metodológicas de que adolecen estas herramientas esenciales para la investigación científica.
El segundo artículo, titulado “Gestión de la Investigación y Desarrollo en Ecuador y América Latina”, fue elaborado por las másteres Diana Toapanta y Lourdes Calderón. También estas autoras abordan el tema de la investigación; sin embargo, lo hacen desde un ángulo diferente: el de la relación de las tendencias de investigación, tanto en Ecuador como en América Latina, con la economía y el desarrollo.
El artículo que le sigue, el tercero si contamos bien, tiene como autor al Dr. Xavier Puig Peñalosa y se titula “Colonialismo y poder en Le voyage dans la Lune (Viaje a la Luna, 1902) de Georges Méliès”. Mediante un exquisito acercamiento doble —estético e ideológico— a esta obra clásica del pre-cine, el Dr. Puig Peñalosa deconstruye el discurso que subyace en ella.
El cuarto artículo, por su parte, se refiere a una problemática, digamos, más grave, tal vez por ser más pragmática, y vale decir “de vida o muerte”, al menos de una manera más inmediata. Se trata del problema del restablecimiento de las comunicaciones en situaciones de catástrofes naturales, y el artículo se titula precisamente “Estrategias para el restablecimiento de los servicios de telecomunicaciones en caso de catástrofes naturales”. Sus autores, Byron Ronald Vallejo Barragán y Maryoribel Reañez, investigan en un primer momento, teoréticamente, variados temas que guardan relación con las telecomunicaciones, para luego aplicar una encuesta al personal de CNT EP a fin de determinar el estado actual de las comunicaciones en el Ecuador y su capacidad para responder efectivamente ante una catástrofe natural. Finalmente, los autores proponen una serie de estrategias para enfrentar eficazmente estas situaciones.
El artículo que cierra este número de la revista es el titulado “La Percepción confiesa el valor artístico. Máscaras e Identidad”, del Mg. Diego Machado. Entramos con él nuevamente en el ámbito del arte y los estudios culturales.
No queremos terminar sin agradecer profundamente a todos los autores que han colaborado con nosotros en este número. Su aporte es esencial. Y esto, aunque obvio —son los creadores del contenido—, es importante que quede escrito.
Solo nos resta desearles a los lectores una amena e instructiva lectura, y que encuentren en estas páginas una vía para su crecimiento intelectual. Esperemos que este nuevo número de nuestra revista, además de “ver la luz”, contribuya a hacer luz.

Este número de la Revista Científica UISRAEL pretende indagar y profundizar en nuevas realidades sociales y humanísticas de alta relevancia dentro de los entornos actuales, en donde los ejes del conocimiento cada vez son más interdisciplinares, imbricados e interdependientes.
En este volumen que cuenta con cinco artículos se evidencian estas nuevas perspectivas ligadas a los contextos modernos y a las necesidades sociales. Las valiosas contribuciones dilucidan de una forma clara y académica distintas problemáticas a resolver o a ser explicadas.
Es así, que el primer artículo de este número de Ainara Anoceto Barrera y Dayana Mesa, titulado “La gestión del hábitat en Santa Clara: una mirada desde las desigualdades socio-espaciales”, se enfoca en la realidad cubana actual y refleja los nuevos paradigmas en materia de vivienda y acceso a espacios habitables. Mediante una investigación exploratoria en tres asentamientos de la ciudad pertenecientes a las zonas de la periferia, el intermedio y el centro, las autoras profundizan en la precariedad de los fondos habitacionales, el nivel de hacinamiento y el crecimiento de asentamientos periféricos por la migración campo ciudad.
El segundo trabajo se enmarca en el ámbito de la educación y la interculturalidad. Desde Venezuela, la autora Yulitza García, de una forma creativa e innovadora presenta al ajedrez como una estrategia pedagógica desde el campo intercultural en la Universidad Experimental de Caracas. Se toma como referente a este deporte considerándolo una vía de interacción para el entendimiento social que aporta a la riqueza cultural, la creatividad y múltiples oportunidades para el aprendizaje.
Asimismo, Fidel Parra, Silvia Martínez, Henry Recalde y Mayoribel Reañez en su estudio “Procesos de gestión tecnológica del conocimiento en educación básica” analizaron estas dinámicas enfocadas en el desarrollo del aprendizaje mediante las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC). El enfoque elegido para esta investigación fue el cualitativo interpretativo haciendo uso de la revisión documental de Odreman (2014), Paniuagua y otros (2007).
Desde Perú, Gaby Vargas propone “Modelo de comportamientos pro ambientales en los estudiantes de la Facultad de Letras y Ciencias Humanas-Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos”, por medio de ecuaciones estructurales, donde se realizó un análisis sobre la influencia de las actitudes hacia la conservación del medio ambiente, autoeficacia ambiental, habilidades y creencias ambientales en el comportamiento proactivo de los estudiantes.
Finalmente, en este número no se podía dejar de lado el desarrollo comunitario. Boris López, Francisco Vinueza, Carolina Jaramillo y Jesús A. Chamorro presentaron “Diagnóstico del Turismo Rural en Tupigachi, parroquia Pedro Moncayo, Pichincha-Ecuador”. A través de encuestas, los investigadores pudieron establecer los atractivos turísticos del lugar y sus potencialidades, además de identificar las motivaciones que tienes los visitantes al llegar a la parroquia, este estudio ha evidenciado las principales fortalezas de Tupigachi, buscando generar un turismo que se convierta en una alternativa de desarrollo para la población local.
Un especial agradecimiento a los autores de este número de la Revista Científica UISRAEL, sus aportes generan sin duda alguna una amplia gama de visiones sobre realidades diversas. Este esfuerzo es por y para la comunidad académica ecuatoriana en aras de seguir mejorando en procesos de calidad hacia una cultura formativa y educativa de excelencia.
Un saludo caluroso,
Valeria Yarad Jeada
