(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-09-07) Ochoa Jadán, María Pamela; Peralta Alvarado, Valeria Gabriela; Izquierdo Molina, Anita Catalina
The present monographic work deals with the development of orality, which is an important topic in early childhood education, because during this stage, infants acquire skills and develop communicative and social abilities that allow them to express their needs, and orality is considered a fundamental tool for the cognitive development of children. Therefore, the objective was to analyze different strategies used by teachers for the development of orality in children from 3 to 5 years old. This monograph is developed with a qualitative approach, with a descriptive-explanatory scope. A documentary research was carried out, which allows an approach to concepts elaborated by different theorists on language, the components of orality, as well as to know some didactic strategies that allow the development of orality depending on the children's ages. In addition, a small field work was carried out by conducting semi-structured interviews with six teachers from different early education centers, both from the public and private sectors in the city of Cuenca. All this allowed us to demonstrate that the development of orality is indispensable for the integral development of children, which is why it is essential to know and carry out different didactic strategies in the classroom that are motivating and interesting for children in order to stim ulate and strengthen the different components of orality.

(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-09-05) Contento Torres, Irma Irene; Tepán Villa, Diana Cristina; Dávalos Molina, Juana Catalina
This is a monographic work and its objective is to research the relationship between emotional development and children's literature. It is recognized the relevance of this topic in the integral formation of children, and children's literature is highlighted as an adequate didactic tool for its application in the classrooms of Early Childhood and High School Education. The study focuses on determining the significance of using children's literature as a resource to facilitate the emotional development of infants from 4 to 6 years old. For this purpose, documentary research with an explanatory descriptive approach was carried out, analyzing the two key categories: emotional development and children's literature, through the study of bibliographic sources. Furthermore, field work was carried out in an educational unit of the city of Cuenca, specifically in the classrooms of Initial II and Preparatory. During this stage, different genres of children's literature were applied, such as songs, stories and plays of their own authorship, with the purpose of contributing to the emotional development of the students. The results confirmed that children's literature, in its different genres, is an effective means to promote integral development, especially in the emotional area, during early childhood, since children can enhance their imagination, express, recognize and control their emotions and feelings, both their own and those of others.

(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-08-31) Carrión Cazorla, Ana Cristina; Cordero García, María de los Ángeles; Dávalos Molina, Juana Catalina
This is a monographic study and covers inclusion in the classroom, under the premise that the role of the teacher is essential in this process and has a great impact on children's learning. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the teacher's role in early education inclusion. A qualitative approach was used in this monograph, in which documentary research with an exploratory descriptive scope was carried out to determine the role of the teacher in relation to inclusion from the bibliographic analysis. In addition, field work was carried out to complement the researched theory, through the application of semi-structured interviews and observations to early education teachers in the city of Cuenca, to identify the perception of teachers about their role regarding inclusion. In this way, it was shown that the role of the teacher is essential, since he/she provides children with learning in relation to their needs, and must also foster a positive environment and respect for differences. However, the analysis of the interviews and observations about the teachers' perception revealed that despite knowing the theoretical part of inclusion and the existence of inclusive public policies, the educators do not make changes in their methodology, since they do not implement pertinent strategies that respond to individualities, they only focus on watching the children play and prevent them from hurting themselves.

(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-09-19) Buele Lanchi, Doris Paulina; Uyaguari Morocho, Thalya Maribel; Palacios Cordero, Mireya del Pilar
The objective of the research is to identify the experiences of teachers of initial and preparatory education when addressing comprehensive sex education, for which we work with a qualitative approach that allows us to know the experiences that teachers have when dealing with Comprehensive Sex Education (ESI) in early childhood. Likewise, it is based on a selection and compilation of information through the critical reading and analysis of documents and other bibliographic resources to relate the reference categories such as sex education in early childhood and the perspectives that teachers have. To obtain the data, a semi-structured interview was applied to teachers of initial and preparatory of different educational institutions of the canton Cuenca with at least 3 years of professional experience. Also, an investigation and compilation of research and projects that are used to address sex education in early childhood is carried out. Likewise, an investigation and compilation of investigations and projects that are used to address sexual education in early childhood is carried out. The results show that the teachers of the initial and high school level are mostly prepared to deal with issues related to ESI; however, they find several obstacles such as the lack of specific content within the curriculum to work with students; the little collaboration of the parents and also of the authorities of the educational institutions; All of this leads to boys and girls not having a real knowledge of their body and its functioning, having to learn it in a distorted way by other means, and it can be a cause for them to be victims of sexual abuse.

This monographic dissertation discusses the impact of gamification on educational practices in early childhood, which is a highly relevant topic. Gamification is an innovative and motivating pedagogical strategy that can be adapted to all academic levels. The study aims to determine how gamification in early childhood education fosters children's learning across multiple areas of development. The research method involved a descriptive documentary study to gain strong theoretical understanding of gamification's characteristics, contents, elements, and mechanics. Additionally, interviews were conducted with early childhood educators in the city of Cuenca to comprehend teaching practices associated with gamified strategies. The results showed a tight connection between gamification and early education. When gamification- based educational activities are appropriately structured, this strategy positively affects the comprehensive development of children, providing innovative and playful teaching alternatives. In addition, educators and experts alike acknowledge that gamification in education fosters learning and significantly impacts the cognitive and socio-emotional development of students, including orality, gamification, and social-emotional development.
