Principios pedagógicos que sustentan el desarrollo de la práctica profesional en Educación Básica

Abstract

Abstract: The main objective of this study is to verify the pedagogical principles underlying the planning of pre-professional practice developed by students in the Basic Education program at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja. To this end, a deductive approach and a descriptive, quantitative methodological approach were adopted, designed under a positivist philosophy, analyzing 10 microcurricular plans from various areas. The results show that, in general, students follow the basic pedagogical principles in their planning, but areas for improvement are evident. Although the planning process is adequate, improvements are needed in the proposed activities and the selection of teaching resources. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening the quality and creativity of the activities and resources used to enrich the classroom learning experience. This study highlights the need to continue improving the pedagogical training of future teachers so that they can apply pedagogical principles more effectively and in a way that is tailored to the needs of the educational context.
