During 2020, in the face of the recession caused by the COVID19 pandemic, public and private sectors suffer massive losses that force them to promote strategies for immediate reactivation. Education in México, despite estimating a considerable lag, had a favorable reaction towards "online classes” in all education levels. Through technological resources, administrative, teachers, parents and students were involved without having the opportunity to be questioned. As a result of this, a study was proposed with a quantitative approach and descriptive method, to keep record of the effects presented by college students before this modality. Natural stress is associated with social isolation through dimensions involving ICTs with the aim of diagnosing the personal, family, social and technological impact on college students in San Luis Potosí, to determine the effects that are adverse to their learning and professional life. The results will contribute to the development of strategies associated with the effective use of the ICTs that institutions offer and facilitate the teaching-learning process; the study also concluded according to the integral well-being of the student in this new modality.

OBJECTIVE: To identify thematic area networks and institutional co-authorship networks in the initial development of the CT, to recognize their characteristics in order to demonstrate the importance of interaction in a health innovation. METHODS: The method proposed by the researchers at the University of Manchester and thematic area studies was used. The databases used were ISI-Web of Science (ISI-WoS) and SCOPUS. The pioneer article was located and the literature limited to subsequent years was systematically reviewed. Excel Node XL, Pajek wiki and Ucinet software were used for data processing. RESULTS: Thematic areas and institutional co-authorship networks were obtained in the early years of CT development. Multiple types of interactions are evident. CONCLUSION: The success of the process of invention, innovation and diffusion in the development of CT required the interaction of many disciplines (medicine, physics and engineering) and institutions (University hospitals, Universities, companies, Research centers and scientific communication media). The study of the thematic areas and SNA (Social Networks Analysis) allow to know the processes of invention and innovation and identify new fields of research.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) represents a health challenge, due to its high prevalence and the morbidity that it entails, but because of the costs that its treatment implies. Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic-degenerative disease characterized by defects in the action and / or production of insulin, which generates a hyperglycemic effect.The objective in the application of TENS is to decrease the glycated hemoglobin value by one percentage point with respect to its initial value through the application of external electrical currents TENS in uncontrolled type II diabetic patients. Electrostimulation is considered an alternative for the treatment of uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, since it produces a temporary, metabolic, morphological transformation of fast fibers or slow muscle fibers. With this, glucose metabolism can be controlled by its plasma concentrations and by a large extent of glucose transport through the cell membrane, thus being a treatment option that does not generate side effects for the patient, and does not generate high costs in your application.

Foreign language learners have difficulties understanding texts because they try to code and decode in their mother tongue; then, the necessity of looking for a strategy to help them is crucial. The objective of this research is to show how digital graphic organizers (DGOs) help students develop reading comprehension, especially in understanding the evolution of the English language. The review of different theories about DGOs guided to identify a proto-typed model of analysis and design digital activities to represent students' understanding of a text. Methodologically, an experimental design consisting of pre and post-treatment tests were applied in the control and experimental group, during fall 2019 in the English Language Teaching Bachelor at BUAP, on a sample of 60 subjects. A treatment phase (didactic intervention) to prove the suitability of the proposal took place by using DGOs as a tool to promote reading comprehension of texts and knowledge representation. The most outstanding results were a deeper understanding of facts, historical events, the ability to synthesize information with DGOs, and the motivation to read about historical events. In conclusion, this way of developing understanding and representation of the knowledge was perceived positively by the subjects.

Currently, students are received in high school without study habits that influence appropriate academic performance, this has a great influence on their transition to the upper secondary level. It is important to note that study habits are the behaviors and activities that students perform frequently. The current era is determined by globalization and the preponderance of the new economy where the important element is the knowledge society, for this reason continuous education and the development of competencies to "learn to learn" are transcendental; it is essential to promote study habits. It is a descriptive cross-sectional study through surveys. To carry out this research, a simple stratified sampling was carried out with second and fourth semester students from the Colegio Primitivo y Nacional de San Nicolás de Hidalgo of the Universidad Michoacana. The sample is made up of 151 students. Study habits test, consists of 20 items. The results obtained in this research lead to approve that second and fourth semester students do not have sufficient study habits. Through academic tutorials, it is proposed to carry out a program that allows students to develop attitudes and skills for study. Carry out programs to support them through experiences taught at the Faculty of Psychology, called Personal Growth Workshop and Life and Career Planning, which would benefit them by working in group therapy, setting personal goals. It is recommended that teachers encourage the development of positive study habits in the different academic activities planned, executed and evaluated. Develop talks on planning and organization of time, use of study techniques and management of educational resources. On the part of the tutors, aimed at students in whom inappropriate study habits and attitudes are detected.

The present investigation shows the results of a study carried out in the development of the Fourth Tutoring Expo. The objective was to identify the topics of interest to the students attending the tutoring activities. The work was developed under a quantitative approach. To collect information, a survey was used in which the impression of the event on the students who attended was measured; They were asked to write the topic (s) they would like to see taught at the next event to train teachers. 152 attendees of the Fourth Tutoring Expo, of both sexes, were surveyed. It is a descriptive quantitative investigation. It was a survey designed by the coordination of tutorials to learn about the topic of interest to be addressed in the following events. 152 attendees of the Fourth Tutoring Expo were surveyed, through a simple random sampling of participants of the event of both sexes. The results show that the topics of greatest interest are: 11%, feminism, 11%, Study techniques, 11%, Contraceptive methods, 11%, Gender equality, 10% How to be a good tutor and learn, 7%, Infections sexually transmitted. It would be interesting to know the reasons why young students focus their attention on these topics to design a comprehensive action plan and thus clear up their doubts that lead us to adequately improve their development. Finally, it is important that teaching practices be re-signified from the tutorial activity, the institutional climate and collaborative work are the central aspects that are required to be contained in the development and training of this substantial instrument for young people.

Tutoring is a strategy to contribute to the development of skills and support students in solving academic problems; help in the promotion of their autonomy and comprehensive training, as well as contribute to improving their academic performance through adequate personalized and group guidance. In addition to implementing it in the educational center, it is important to evaluate it to know the perspective, progress and improvements for each school year, taking into account the needs of the student population. In the present, the results of a survey applied to 375 young people are presented to know their perception of the mentoring program of this cycle under the virtual modality due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Some of the specific results show that: 74% consider that attending tutorials benefited their adaptation to academic life. Regarding whether the tutoring sessions have helped them to better understand the services that the Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo provides to students, 87% consider that they met this objective. And on whether they consider that the activities aimed at integration (workshops, tutorials, etc.) are sufficient, 81% consider that they are. The above shows a general satisfaction with the sessions, schedules, the attention received, the topics, etc.
