El objetivo fundamental de este ensayo es socializar con la comunidad científica, las reflexiones y experiencias de resultados investigativos en la Carrera de Educación Básica de la UPSE, el controvertido tema de las competencias en el ámbito de la Educación Superior para el presente siglo XXI, donde se plantea la necesidad de un nuevo proceso educativo, fundamentado en los principios de excelencia, calidad y pertinencia, con una característica especial: la de integrar la educación a los procesos productivos y de los servicios, por lo que se precisa la necesidad de organizar e implementar nuevas formas de aprender, de enseñar y de organizar. En este trabajo se explicitan desde una perspectiva teórica los contenidos de los diseños curriculares que deben contribuir a la formación de competencias profesionales, ya que a través de ellas se promueven el desarrollo de conocimientos, habilidades, valores y actitudes que constituyen el campo del saber, el saber hacer y saber ser. Todos estos planteamientos han suscitado las siguientes interrogantes que se intenta dar respuesta en el presente reporte científico: ¿Qué entendemos por competencia?, ¿Cómo se adquieren?, ¿Qué tiene que hacer la universidad para favorecer su adquisición?, ¿Sugerencias metodológicas para la elaboración de los perfiles profesionales? Palabras Clave: Competencias, formación universitaria, diseño curricular y perfil profesional ABSTRACT The main objective of this essay is to share with the scientific community, reflections and experiences of research results on the controversial issue of competency in the field of higher education in the XXI century, where the need for a new process arises in education, based on the principles of excellence, quality and relevance, with a special feature to integrate education into production and service processes, therefore, the need to organize and implement new ways of learning, teaching and organizing. In this paper the contents of the curricula that should contribute to the formation of professional skills are explained from a theoretical perspective, because they promote knowledge, skills, values and attitudes that constitute the field of knowledge, the know-how, and the know-how-to-be. All these approaches have raised the questions to be answered in this scientific report: What is meant by competency? How is it achieved?, What must the university do in order to favor its achievement ? Are there any methodological tips for the development of professional profiles?. Keywords: Competencies, university training, curriculum design and professional profile Recibido: mayo de 2015 Aprobado: junio de 2015

  El interés particular  de los autores se centra en el perfeccionamiento del proceso de las Prácticas Pre Profesionales y su aporte a la formación universitaria de los futuros docentes, de esta forma es ineludible el análisis de cómo se realiza su formación. Por tal motivo el objetivo principal de este trabajo se ajusta en cómo los fundamentos teóricos del constructivismo y el enfoque reflexivo aportan a tan importante proceso de formación académica. Se realizó un análisis teórico exhaustivo para extraer dentro de estas teorías aportes significativos que puedan orientar de una manera más adecuada el proceso de las Prácticas Pre Profesionales, previamente se realizó un estudio a los documentos normativos que rigen el proceso de práctica en la Facultad de Filosofía Letras y Ciencias de la Educación, de Filosofía, Letras y Ciencias de la Educación de la Universidad Técnica de Manabí específicamente en la carrera de Pedagogía de los Idiomas Nacionales y Extranjeros (Idiomas). Como resultado del análisis teórico se recogió valiosa información que corrobora la importancia que tienen estas dos teorías dentro del proceso de PPP, esencialmente en el carácter activo del estudiante como ente y principal actor de su formación así también la reflexión como principal vía de interiorización de conocimientos hacia el aprendizaje significativo, elementos importantes dentro del proceso de prácticas los cuales hay que fortalecer y mantener.   Palabras clave  —  Teoría  constructivista,  enfoque reflexivo, Proceso de Prácticas Pre Profesionales.   Abstract ─ The authors' particular interest is focused on the improvement of the Pre-Professional Practices process and their contribution to the university training of future teachers, thus the analysis of how their training is carried out is inescapable. For this reason, the main objective of this work is adjusted in how the theoretical foundations of constructivism and the reflective approach contribute to such an important process of academic formation. An exhaustive theoretical analysis was carried out to extract within these theories significant contributions that can guide the process of Pre-Professional Practices in a more adequate way, previously a study was made of the normative documents that govern the practice process in the Faculty of Philosophy. Letters and Sciences of Education, Philosophy, Letters and Sciences of Education of the Technical University of Manabí specifically in the career of Pedagogy of National and Foreign Languages (Languages). As a result of the theoretical analysis, valuable information was collected that corroborates the importance of these two theories in the PPP process, essentially in the active character of the student as the entity and main actor in their training, as well as reflection as the main way of internalizing knowledge. towards meaningful learning, important elements within the internship process which must be strengthened and maintained.   Keywords— Constructivist theory, reflective approach, Pre- Professional Practices Process.

Desde hace décadas en el contexto educativo, el debate nacional ha venido insistiendo sobre la necesidad de cambios y transformación de la universidad, debido esencialmente a la transición hacia sociedades con alto valor educativo. En estos nuevos escenarios, el concepto de “transformación” universitaria alude a procesos complejos y, por tanto, contrarios al pensamiento dicotómico, que a veces acompaña el discurso del cambio. La transformación de la universidad debe ser repensada considerando la hiper-complejidad de su organización, basada en un conocimiento cada vez más diferenciado, con elevadas demandas, en un contexto cada vez más globalizado. En este trabajo se muestran algunas reflexiones sobre la transformación universitaria y el rol el tutor en los estudios de postgrado como uno de los nudos críticos del proceso de transformación, sustentadas en la discusión y dialogo de saberes de docentes investigadores de la  Universidad  Nacional  Experimental  Politécnica  de  la  Fuerza  Armada Nacional, Núcleo Nueva Esparta y, los productos científicos de los participantes del curso Post-doctoral “Las Políticas de Transformación Universitaria Bolivariana: Aportes desde las ciencias pedagógicas”, Convenio Cuba- Venezuela. Las discusiones se fundamentaron en la importancia que caracterizan el rol del tutor y su desempeño. Las reflexiones permitieron diagnosticar el rol del tutor y detectar los elementos más importantes a ser considerados para diseñar, implementar y evaluar programas de tutorías y la supervisión de investigaciones, que puedan contribuir a elevar el rendimiento en los trabajos de grado de postgrado, tesis doctorales y la función tutorial. PALABRAS CLAVE: Transformación; Cambios; Universidad; Formación; Conocimiento. ABSTRACT  For decades in the educational context, the national debate has been insisting on the need for change and transformation of the University, due essentially to the transition to societies with high educational value. In these new scenarios, the concept of "transformation" University refers to complex processes and, therefore, contrary to the dichotomous thinking, that sometimes accompanies the discourse of change. The transformation of the University must be reparsed considering the hypercomplexity of your organization, based on a more differentiated knowledge with high demands in an increasingly globalized context. This work shows some reflections on University transformation and the role the tutor in the postgraduate studies as one of the critical nodes of the transformation   process,   supported   in   the   discussion   and   dialogue   of knowledge’s of researchers professors of the Universidad Nacional Experimental Polytechnic of the force Navy national, core Nueva Esparta, the scientific products of the participants of the course "the policies of transformation Universitaria Bolivariana Postdoctoral ": Contributions from the pedagogical sciences",   Cuba-Venezuela   agreement.   Discussions   are   based   on   the importance that characterizes the role of the tutor and his performance. The reflections enabled diagnose the role of the tutor and detect the most important elements to be considered for designing, implementing and evaluating tutoring programs and the supervision of investigations, which could contribute to raising achievement in degree of postgraduate, doctoral theses and the tutorial function. KEYWORDS: Transformation; changes; University; training; knowledge.

Abstract.GUIDELINES TO STUDY ACADEMIC MOTIVATIONAs motivation bears a reciprocal relation to learning and performance, it is necessary to persist in the study of this psychological construct. Although people have several beliefs about what is and what determines motivation, the scientific study must be guided by a theoretical frame. For this reason, the aim of the present work is to provide guidelines for the study of academic motivation, so that motivational researchers work proving hypothesis, looking to reach fixed objectives or solving doubts, within a practical context which reflects educational reality. To this end, this work tries to clarify what is academic motivation, joining criteria and definitions of the different theoretical models. It also tries to describe the factors which seem to determine academic motivation so that they help us to assess this complex psychological construct. Finally, it also tries to provide guidelines to enhance motivation, so that teachers and parents will know how to act to improve their children academic motivation, which has been demanded persistently by them. This research has been possible thanks to the University of León, which funded the ULE20011-4 project granted to the author to the 2012 year.Keywords: Academic motivation, Assessment, Guidelines, Motivational determinantsResumen.Puesto que el aprendizaje y el rendimiento están relacionados recíprocamente con la motivación, debe persistirse en el estudio de este constructo psicológico, de modo que aunque las personas tengan ciertas creencias acerca de lo que es y sostiene la motivación, su estudio científico debe estar guiado necesariamente por ciertos principios teóricos. Es por ello que el objetivo del presente trabajo es dar pautas para el estudio de la motivación académica, de modo que los investigadores de la motivación trabajen comprobando hipótesis, buscando alcanzar objetivos fijados o resolviendo dudas, pero dentro de un contexto práctico que refleje la realidad educativa. Con este fin se intenta clarificar qué es la motivación académica aunando criterios y definiciones de distintos modelos teóricos, describir los factores que parecen determinar la motivación y que nos van a ayudar a evaluar este constructo tan abstracto, y proporcionar guías de actuación para fomentar la optimización de esa motivación académica, de modo que se pueda proporcionar a padres y docentes pautas de actuación que conlleven sino un incremento de la motivación por el aprendizaje, sí su sostenimiento, medidas demandadas insistentemente por unos y otros. Esta investigación ha sido posible gracias a la Universidad de León, al financiar el proyecto ULE20011-4 concedido a la autora para el año 2012.Palabras clave: Motivación académica, Evaluación, Pautas de actuación, Determinantes motivacionales.

The review study closely introspects’ on the prerequisites of evidence-based curriculum within the realms of specialized skills development agenda as pursued through higher education Institutions in Africa. Explicitly, the constraining factors that bedevil the leather sector are identifiable when appropriate research designs tools are applied. As such, in the process of identifying the constraints, renascence themes could, therefore, be beneficial in collecting evidence in support of developing curriculum. Such a developed curriculum stands higher chances of acceptability and aptly mitigates against challenges related to specialized skills development. The review succinctly indicates that in the process of identifying the themes, the scope of collecting evidence becomes attainable, thus, improving curricula that entails a participatory and transformative orientation. Indeed, during the review phase of the study, three main perspectives are depicted to be consequential in attaining a comprehensive, evidence-based curriculum, such as; action research, backward curriculum design perspective and theoretical perspective. Therefore, about this perspective, a reflection based on personal experiences and related to new knowledge with what they already know leads to constructivism. The relevancy of a constructivist strategy is observed to facilitate the observatory and evaluative stance during the development of evidence-based curriculum. Moreover, in consolidating and sustaining the benefit of such a developed curriculum, threshold concept was found during the review that it complements the process and strengthens the collecting evidence for curriculum development. Accordingly, therefore, the result of the review study indicate that Africa would  position itself for initiating transformational changes in aspects of specialized higher education, fruition towards socio-economic benefits (e.g. employment, wealth creation and technology transfer), reversal of urban-rural or inter/intra continental migration flurry.

El artículo aborda los problemas de equidad e inclusión en la educación superior en Chile desde una perspectiva que se sitúa más próxima al campo de la sociología de la Educación. Desde allí la perspectiva teórica que sirve de marco orientador del estudio se plantea la posibilidad de comprensión de los fenómenos sociales desde las creencias y acciones de los sujetos. También se asume que el logro de la justicia en una sociedad determinada y en la educación en particular, trasciende a la distribución equitativa de recursos y requiere que los actores educativos, caracterizados por una mayor diversidad, se reconozcan mutuamente unos a otros como lo plantean los teóricos del reconocimiento (Honneth, 2010).Palabras clave: Equidad, inclusión, educación superior, creencias, reconocimiento.Diversidade Cultural e Equidade em Faculdades privadas com Projeto de InclusãoO artigo aborda os problemas de Equidade e Inclusão no ensino superior no Chile desde uma perspectiva que se situa mais próxima ao campo da sociologia da Educação. A partir daí, a perspectiva teórica que serve de marco orientador do estudo, manifesta a possibilidade de compreensão dos fenômenos sociais, desde as crenças e ações dos sujeitos. Também se entende que o logro da justiça numa sociedade determinada e na educação em particular, transcende a distribuição equitativa de recursos e requer que os atores educacionais, caracterizados por uma maior diversidade, reconheçam-se mutuamente uns aos outros como expressam os teóricos do reconhecimento (Honneth, 2010).Palavras-chave: Equidade, Inclusão, ensino superior, crenças, reconhecimento.Cultural diversity and equity in private universities withinclusion projectThe article discusses the issues of equity and inclusion in higher educationin Chile from a perspective closest to the field of sociology of education.Based on that, the theoretical perspective that serves as a guiding frameworkof the study provides the possibility of understanding social phenomenafrom individual beliefs and actions. It is also assumed that the achievementof justice in a given society and in education in particular transcends theequitable distribution of resources. It requires that educational actors,characterized as more diverse, are mutually recognized, as it is suggestedby recognition theorists (Honneth, 2010).Keywords: Equity, inclusion, higher education, beliefs, recognition.

University is relatively considered a stressful moment in the life of students due to numerous academic workloads and academic activities. The situation is further aggravated by the fact that some university students are in emerging adulthood, a developmental period which is psychologically fraught with uncertainty, instability and identity issues among others. Added to these, the context of most universities like Cameroon which is marred with political, economic and social turbulence common to other developing societies in the sub Saharan region makes life unbearable. Looking at the challenges that confront tertiary education students in the third decade of life, increases possibilities of fears that they will founder thus narrowing the route to a blossomed transition into adulthood and through the university from home into the world of work. However, observations reveal that some have remained hopeful as they continuously believe in themselves and their worth. As such, they have resiliently shrugged off the vast burden placed on them by the adult society as they struggle intentionally with continuous efforts to succeed. Being hopeful and self-efficacy beliefs are observed to be some of the effective drivers that pull emerging adults through the storms of university transition thus facilitating positive development into subsequent life stages. Unfortunately just a paucity of literature albeit theoretically actually narrates via scholarly corridors the monumental successes recorded by students as they sail flourishingly through university in the midst of storms an in the third decade of life. This paper examines and addresses the foregoing through the lenses of some theories.

This paper takes the application of workflow technology in a multi-smart IOT message-driven practical training execution system as the research background, analyzes the current situation and problems of the practical training execution system, and reconstructs and optimizes the original on-site practical training model and business methods according to the future development needs of the practical training execution system. This study draws on the theoretical perspective of the computer knowledge body to deeply recognize and understand the connotation of computing ability from the levels of knowledge, skills, and attitude, forms a basic understanding of computing ability through literature combing, and refines the core elements of computing ability through a combination of enterprise case study, content analysis, and questionnaire survey, strives to form a more systematic and in-depth understanding of the connotation and elements of computing ability. It also provides a reference for the clarification of computing ability training objectives of computer science teachers under the trend of intelligence. Facing the enhancement of computing ability of engineering students majoring in computer science at the undergraduate level, the objectives of computing ability cultivation are clarified, the key points of computing ability cultivation mode are refined from three levels: curriculum design, teaching operation, management, and control, and three typical computing ability cultivation modes embedded in undergraduate computer education are constructed: knowledge module combination mode, computing context experience mode, and intelligent industry-leading mode. The operational strategies and implementation paths of the models are discussed in depth. This study emphasizes that, based on the analysis of the characteristics of the trend of intelligence, the computing ability cultivation model is not static.

An Australian College of Operating Room Nurses (ACORN) submission (ACORN 2002–2008) recently stated that the specialities that suffered significantly from the transition of hospital-based nursing training to university training were the perioperative specialty, critical care and emergency. The main reason for this was that perioperative nursing was not included in the undergraduate nursing curriculum. Less than a handful of universities in Australia offer the subject as a compulsory unit. The University of Notre Dame Australia (UNDA) is one of these universities. This paper will provide an insight into the perioperative nursing care unit embedded within the Bachelor of Nursing (BN) undergraduate curriculum.
