Abstract

Abstract:The present work whose theme refers to school media competence was aimed at diagnosing the level of media competence in boys and girls aged 5 to 8 years of the "Mercedes Navarrete" School of Education of third year EGB. The investigation was carried out in the city of Sucúa, Morona Santiago. The methodology applied in the study was quantitative and qualitative, applying as bibliographic review techniques and a questionnaire, an instrument applied to a sample of 88 children. The results found allowed us to know that the development of media competences is low in the teaching-learning process within the analyzed school institution, since the students' achievements around the mastery of these competences have been achieved outside the school. In addition, they showed ignorance of educational games, being necessary to strengthen this process, so that learning is meaningful and functional according to current times and the applicability of the tools that allow the strengthening of creativity, autonomy, intelligence and reflexive critical development.
