Influencia de la herramienta Canva para el fortalecimiento de la comunicación oral en estudiantes de séptimo año

Abstract

Abstract: The study analyzed the influence of the digital tool Canva on strengthening oral communication among seventh-grade students in General Basic Education at the 16 de Julio Educational Unit, located in the parish of El Carmen de Pijilí, Camilo Ponce Enríquez canton, Azuay province, during the 2025 2026 school year. The objective of the research was to detect and recognize initial communication difficulties, as the aim was to evaluate, on the one hand, the application of Canva in the educational process, but also to evaluate the change produced by the application of this tool in the classroom. The research chose a mixed descriptive approach, with a non-experimental and cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 12 students who were surveyed with 10 closed questions at two different times: a pre-test and a post-test. The information was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of the pre-test revealed limitations in oral expression, as 67% indicated that they only sometimes communicated their ideas clearly and 75% expressed nervousness when speaking in public. In contrast, the post-test showed that 92% expressed clarity and demonstrated improvements in communication.
