Contribución de los fundamentos didácticos en las practicas preprofesionales de la carrera de Educacion Basica

Abstract

Abstract: The research analyzed the didactic foundations present in a microcurricular planning designed during the pre-professional practices of the Basic Education program at the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, in Loja, Ecuador. The problem arose from the need to understand how curricular, methodological, didactic, and evaluative decisions are related within a concrete teaching proposal. The general objective was to analyze these foundations through the documentary review of curricular components, methodological strategies, didactic resources, and learning assessment. The documentary sample consisted of a Natural Sciences planning for third year of General Basic Education, focused on vertebrate and invertebrate animals. The study followed a qualitative approach, with a documentary type and content analysis design. Documentary review was applied as the technique, and a guide organized by categories, codes, and matrices was used as the instrument. The results show coherence among the objective, skill, resources, and application activity, as well as active, experiential, and inductive approaches. It is concluded that planning links theory, curriculum, and teaching practice, although assessment needs strengthening through formal instruments with clear and relevant criteria for the real school classroom.
