Learning Strategies at a Higher Taxonomic Level in Primary Education Students in the Digital Age

Abstract

The education system must respond to the demands and needs of today’s society. To meet this demand, teachers must identify the degree of cognitive skills that our students possess through digital learning strategies that encourage the development of these superior skills because of the impact of technological resources on student motivation. To carry out this assessment, two types of strategy tests were applied to evaluate cognitive skills, one determining the student’s ability to create an opinion of their own based on ideas and visions of other authors (perspective analysis) and the other strategy test to distinguish the main elements of an information, identifying a general pattern (abstraction), which were reviewed with a task performance instrument (rubrics). A mixed methodology was used through a case study, with a selected and intentional sample of 34 students of the Primary Education Grade. The results show that elaborating questions that go deeper into a topic and labelling contents is not an easy task and that abstraction is one of the most complex skills to develop in students. It should be noted that, in practically all areas, men’s averages exceed those of women. Finally, the use of digital strategies must be incorporated as permanent routines and the relationship between technology and pedagogy allows for the management of learning and therefore increases higher level cognitive abilities.

Using simulations in project management education – impact on awareness and ability to navigate projects in a sustainable way

“…This is in line with D ıaz-Pareja et al (2021). Further on, if the simulations are digital, as in our case, they are well-suited for supporting project management education the digital age as suggested by Aravena-Gaete et al (2020) and Nair and Yunus (2021).…”

Formation of the concept of beauty in the words with the Proto-Slavic root *lěp-, based on the material of ancient Russian written records

“…The selection was intentional about the premises to develop skills, authors such as: Murillo, Galindo and González (2017); Herrera, Valdivia, Alonso & Zagalaz (2018); Roys & Pérez, (2018); Bonilla and Díaz (2018) and Aravena-Gaete, Campos-Soto and Rodríguez-Jiménez (2020). The procedure was to analyze the results of studies on effective actions to generate higher thinking skills, in order to contrast the results of the investigations.…”
