Sistematización de experiencias de la intervención pedagógica rural, resultado de la curricularización de la extensión universitaria

Abstract

Higher education in Ecuador presents difficulties in the academic and administrative processes of the degree unit, a factor that has a negative impact on the achievement of the graduate profile. The purpose of the study is to systematize the curricular, cultural and social experiences of rural pedagogical intervention, through the integral practice of the student as a teacher, in comparison with other degree modalities. Based on the above, the need arises to implement the systematization of experiences as an alternative option to strengthen the interest and teaching vocation, through the link with the rural educational reality. The methodology was experimental, with students of three careers (n=50) in 18 institutions  of  the  District  "Los  Chillos"  through  surveys  and  interviews.  The  results showed  that  75.6%  of  the  students  considered  that  the systematization  of  experiences consolidated their teaching vocation and 73.8% agreed that the modality allowed them to strengthen their professional capacities. The interview applied to authorities and teachers reflects that the inclusion of students with updated methodologies significantly improves the teaching-learning process. This modality has generated a positive impact on all the actors involved, so its application at the national level is recommended.
