Contribución de los fundamentos didácticos en las prácticas preprofesionales de la carrera de Educación Básica.

Abstract

Abstract: This research focuses on the contribution of didactic principles to the pre-professional practicum within the Basic Education degree program, aiming to describe these principles and how students apply them in practice. The study was conducted within the framework of "Practicum 2" at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja. The methodology employed a qualitative approach and a descriptive phenomenological method, utilizing a document review guide and data analysis; the review guide was applied to a purposive sample consisting of micro-curricular plans developed by students across four curricular areas. The results demonstrate that the program's pre-professional practicum principles are grounded in constructivist approaches and the ERCA methodology, fostering active participation. Furthermore, the study observed effective alignment among micro-curricular planning, methodological strategies, didactic resources, and assessment processes. The activities developed supported the cultivation of cognitive, communicative, and critical skills, highlighting the significance of these didactic principles.
