THE DEVELOPMENT OF SKILLS IN THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESSES (II)

The development of skills in students constitutes a fundamental aspect in the educational processes that are carried out in educational institutions. The skills together with the knowledge and values, make up the content category, considered by many specialists in the Pedagogical Sciences as an essential component of the teaching-learning process.

The skills express the mastery by the student of actions and operations that respond to a specific objective, hence the diversity of forms that can be adopted in educational processes. Given the breadth of the subject, which offers the opportunity to approach it from different angles, a large number of contributions have been received, for which reason the decision was made to divide the articles received into two fascicles.

On this occasion, we present the second issue dedicated to the subject, in which works are published that address the issue of developing specific skills from various educational contexts. In this installment, collaborations of professors-researchers are shown: from the Evangelical University of El Salvador, the Centers for Infant and Primary Education of Seville and Almería, and the University of Córdoba in Spain, the CIFE University Center, the Autonomous University of Yucatán and the Autonomous University of Baja California in the state of Mexico, as well as the National Pedagogical University of Bogotá in Colombia. The publication also has collaborations with Cuban authors from: the University of Camagüey and the Central University "Marta Abreu" de las Villas in the province of Villa Clara.

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.
