    Aulas hospitalarias y la formación de niños en condición de hospitalización en Colombia
    (Universidad La Gran Colombia, 2024) Caldas Zárate, César Alfredo; Amorocho, Edward
    In the Colombian educational system there has been a phenomenon of dropout of boys, girls and adolescents due to health conditions or disabilities. The population linked to formal education that is admitted to a hospital has the risk of a rupture with their training process, becoming a public problem. However, Hospital Classrooms have gradually emerged since 1999, as a favorable alternative in the accompaniment of minor patients who have to leave their family, academic and social environment to face conditions of isolation and pain according to their diagnosed clinical picture. This investigative study has the purpose of identifying the prevailing methodological and pedagogical trajectories in research on hospital classrooms that have been carried out in Colombia between 2017-2022, as an educational alternative for students who due to their health conditions must be hospitalized. Taking into account the documentary analysis methodology, it was possible to establish the identification and preliminary review of various sources, to then carry out a thorough filter such as scientific and academic rigor on the object of study. In conclusion, it was found that the intervention process in hospital classrooms of teaching-learning of school content favors the development of skills that allow the student to integrate into the social world once the recovery process is completed. The intervention requires diagnostic understanding of prior knowledge, seeking an approach to the pace, interest and learning style of the pediatric patient. This phase requires focusing attention on training for life through the development of cognitive and socio-affective skills in the learner. Likewise, the contents and teaching strategies carried out by researchers are related to the teaching of mathematics, especially the development of logical and geometric thinking; the natural sciences, particularly physics; artistic education, mobilized by the plastic and visual arts; and literature: through the stimulation of narratives.

    La función de la imagen fotográfica y el discurso en relación con la enseñanza
    (Universidad La Gran Colombia, 2023) Cruz Velosa, Rudy Yeraldin; Alcantar Beltrán, Gina Paola; García Salazar, Edwin
    This research document intends to focus on the analysis of the function present in the image, in order to discuss the notion of discourse and think about how to extrapolate this discourse through the concept of perception, to produce a relation with the field of teaching. These conditions of appropriation to discursive and perceptive processes, are contrasted at the dawn of proposals and hypotheses that place the image as a fundamental part within the teaching processes and in turn, allow understanding the convergence of theories concerning the image. Therefore, the tripartite relation between image, perception and look is a relation that makes sense with teaching, since this allows to provide a function in pedagogical scenarios, through processes of perception and interpretation of realities. This allows us to determine the correlation of the image with the knowledge emitted in the educational field, where teaching is normally mediated by the sensations caused by the image

    The Colombian State, through the Ministry of National Education, permanently seeks to measure the progress and achievements in learning of 186 Primary Basic Education students with the purpose of determining cognitive deficiencies and improving the reading skills of schoolchildren. In line with this intention, a research project was developed whose general objective seeks to design a teaching strategy that contributes to improving the reading skills of 59 primary school students from the San Luis Beltrán Educational Institution, in the Municipality of Sardinata, Norte de Santander, taking into account the particularities of the context and the difficulties evident. In the methodological aspect, it was supported by the qualitative approach, the descriptive design and the documentary review technique based on the consultation of official documents of the Ministry of National Education. This proposal, after its investigative journey, was able to show the following: the weaknesses found in the Educational Institution studied correspond to a national and regional reality, in which 54.33% of 3rd grade students reached a level of learning low, while on average 74.66% of 5th grade students reached low and very low levels on average in the years 2016, 2017 and 2018 of the knowledge tests regarding reading competence. The San Luis Beltrán Educational Institution is in the last category (D) according to the Colombian Institute for the Evaluation of Education, Icfes (2021), in terms of academic performance, compared to other official institutions within the municipality of Sardinata. To face this alarming reality, this investigative work makes a proposal based on a Reading Plan, which has its own objectives, cooperative learning methodology, pedagogical model of the Escuela Nueva Activa, ENA, literary component, teaching and learning activities, and evaluative activities.

    Las Transiciones Armónicas: Estrategia para la adaptación académica de estudiantes venezolanos de quinto grado en el Instituto Técnico Agropecuario Juan Frío
    (Universidad La Gran Colombia, 2023) Sanabria Pérez, Esmeralda; Rodríguez Vasquez, Raúl Humberto; Almeida Garrido, Jaime Alexander; Yepes Landinez, Yury Andrea
    This research work arises from a bibliographic review where it is evident that the economic, political, and social situation of some countries such as Venezuela, have generated migration processes that greatly affect the children of families that suffer from this social phenomenon, and where the main difficulties are related to curricular and socio-emotional adaptation. These migrant children, upon entering a new educational system, must undergo an additional leveling, feedback and reinforcement process that can be exhausting (León, & Valdeblanquez, 2022). Therefore, the main objective was to design an academic adaptability strategy based on harmonious transitions, aimed at fifth grade Venezuelan students at the Juan Frío Agricultural Technical Institute. For this, a mixed type of research with a descriptive approach was chosen, and information collection instruments such as bibliographic review, direct observation, a survey directed at students, diagnostic tests and an interview with the regular teacher were used. Likewise, the work is based on the rights of the child, the right to education, educational strategies and policies to serve this population and harmonious transitions, conceived as a form of accompaniment and mitigation of changes that may produce a negative impact in children who are in transit from initial education modalities to the transition grade as a mandatory first grade. As a result, it was possible to identify the main academic shortcomings of the students, and to generate and apply improvement strategies for social and academic adaptability, especially in the areas of Spanish and literature, English, and the area of further development of the educational institution.

    Factores de deserción estudiantil en el programa de maestría en educación de la Universidad la Gran Colombia
    (Universidad La Gran Colombia, 2023) Ortiz Ruiz, Harold; Rincón Estupiñán, María Patricia; León Salinas, Carlos Eduardo
    This study analyzes student dropout in the Master's in Education program at Universidad La Gran Colombia between 2019 and 2022. 274 potential dropouts were identified using financial and academic criteria. However, due to the low participation in the initial survey, phone calls were conducted to characterize the students. To calculate the sample size, a confidence level of 95% and a margin of error of 20% were used. This calculation determined a sample size of 23 students, consistent with widely accepted conventions in statistics and general research. Twenty-four dropouts were identified and characterized, and their responses provided valuable information on the causes of dropout. This information was used to develop a systemic model to propose improvements in retention for each department of the university. The most influential factors in the decision to drop out were the lack of academic support, followed by a lack of interest, demotivation, depression, and work obligations. The insufficient clarity in retention strategies and support for postgraduate students is emphasized. The importance of maintaining a balance between income and expenses to ensure the stability and success of the program is also highlighted. It is expected that these results will provide a systemic foundation for future reflections and discussions to address dropout in this academic context.
