INNOVATIVE EXPERIENCES TO RAISE THE QUALITY OF LEARNING IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

One of the fundamental problems towards which the improvement of educational systems on a world scale is directed is the need to overcome traditional styles of teaching. These styles have been characterized fundamentally, in that they focus the teaching-learning process on the teacher, whose main function is to transmit information, while the role of the student is reduced to receiving that information, thus limiting their intellectual work.

For this reason, transformations are required in the teaching-learning process at all educational levels to ensure that students learn to learn and become active subjects in their training; This would imply moving towards a new culture of learning, more adjusted to the complex needs of today's world, which demand learning strategies, which enable people to continue learning throughout life, a requirement that, without a doubt, transcends the old schemes school informational.

Taking into account the ideas expressed, this issue is offered in which contributions are presented that address the ideas raised and address innovative experiences to improve the quality of student learning, from different angles through research work and applied experiences in the current educational reality.

In this installment, collaborations of professors-researchers from: the University of the Eastern Republic of Uruguay, the Evangelical University of Salvador, the National University of Chaco Austral in Argentina and the Mbave High School, in the Province of Huambo in Angola, are shown. Likewise, contributions are presented from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Tayacaja, the Universidad Nacional de Cañete and the Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, all from the state of Peru. The publication also has contributions from Cuban authors from the University of Holguín and the Central University of Las Villas.

Finally, the authors of the articles presented are thanked for the contributions made to this issue of the journal, hoping that the dissemination of the ideas expressed may favor the development of future research and innovative experiences in the educational field.
