Ambientes de aprendizaje no convencionales que promuevan el desarrollo integral de los niños de 3 a 5 años de los Centros de Educación Inicial. Pichincha, Mindo, Ecuador. Durante el Año lectivo 2017-2018.

Abstract

The following essay has the objective of creating unconventional learning spaces which promote the holistic development of children between the age of 3 and 5 in the area of Mindo, province of Pichincha. The methods used are the following: descriptive, analytic, inductive-deductive, statistical and hermeneutical. The tools this paper were based on were surveys given to 5 teachers which allowed us to comprehend how well informed they were on the subject we were investigating and whether or not they used unstructured tools. We also surveyed 15 children to learn about their development, as well as a table documenting the results and thoughts surrounding the implementation of the learning space in the educational facility. Once finished, we were able to observe that not all the teachers were aware of the meaning of unconventional learning spaces nor that of unstructured tools, and due to this, they do not have teaching materials in their classrooms which allow them to create these learning spaces. The existing spaces are therefore not distributed adequately
