The present research focused on identifying the influence of cognitive processes in the creative lateral thinking of high school students. The work was developed under the positivist paradigm; it was classified as basic, of explanatory level, with quantitative approach, non-experimental design and cross-sectional. The sample, calculated through probabilistic sampling, consisted of 221 students. Two data collection instruments were used: the cognitive processes questionnaire and the lateral thinking questionnaire, which were subjected to content validity by expert judgment and reliability and internal consistency analysis by Cronbach's alpha, reaching values of 0.908 and 0.802, respectively. The analysis of verification by Spearman's rho obtained was 0.762, which determined the significant influence between cognitive processes and lateral thinking. It was concluded that, if procedures and actions that lead to the acquisition of knowledge in a constructive way and by discovery are practiced, creative and perceptive lateral thinking would be developed; then the individual would exhibit imagination and creative behaviors.

This research was done to determine the relationship between supervision and teacher practice in an English teaching center with a high student population in Lima Perú. This is a quantitative approach basic type study with a non-experimental transversal design where 5 and 7 point Likert-type-scale questionnaires were used to provide data that was analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics. A non-probabilistic sample of intention or convenience was used to select the respondents. 210 teachers from different branches in Lima were selected to respond to the questionnaires. A descriptive analysis of the statistics was used to interpret the results on the supervisors functions and the teacher performance level in each one of the study areas after the supervisory service had been offered. To contrast the data for the hypothesis test to determine the relationship between supervision and teaching performance (content knowledge of the discipline, teaching skills, contextual knowledge, learner-focus teaching, professionalism), the Spearman correlation coefficient was used. A direct, meaningful and high correlation level was found. The results of the current study will benefit other English language centers management to implement changes and improvements to the supervision service that will result in better teaching performance and student achievement.

El sector de los museos, al igual que muchos sectores que prestan un servicio público, ha experimentado cambios importantes en los últimos años denotándose un fuerte impulso hacia la adopción de procesos de gestión orientados a generar una mayor eficacia, eficiencia, equilibrio económico y administrativo. El presente estudio establece como objetivo determinar el nivel de la gestión por procesos en los museos públicos de Lima. La población estuvo conformada por 265 colaboradores de los museos de Lima. La data fue contrastada por análisis de regresión logística. El abordaje fue cuantitativo, explicativo, diseño no experimental, de campo y transeccional bajo la metodología hipotético deductiva. Los resultados revelaron la existencia de una alta predominancia da la planificación de la gestión procesos respecto al cumplimiento eficiente de las actividades realizadas en los museos públicos de Lima. El estudio concluye que los indicadores predominantes que debilitan la gestión por procesos son la ausencia en la definición de actividades, el incumplimiento en la ejecución de las actividades programadas, el seguimiento de actividades y la falta de análisis de la problemática del museo.
