Principios pedagógicos que sustentan la planificación de la práctica preprofesional en Educación Básica

Abstract

Abstract: This thesis aims to analyze the pedagogical principles underpinning the pre-professional practicum planning developed by students in the Basic Education program at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a descriptive scope and a documentary design. The sample consisted of ten micro curricular plans from different areas of the National Curriculum for Basic General Education, analyzed using structured documentary observation guides developed based on the guidelines of the Ministry of Education of Ecuador. The results demonstrate strengths in the formulation of learning objectives, the selection and contextualization of skills with performance criteria, the design of methodological activities based on the ERCA methodology, and the appropriate use of teaching resources. However, weaknesses were identified in the incorporation of evaluation criteria aligned with the curriculum and in some of the information contained in the plans. The analyzed plans reflect an adequate command of pedagogical and methodological principles. However, it is necessary to strengthen the rigor of evaluation and the formal organization of planning.
