(CONTINUOUS PUBLICATION MODE)

Varela Journal (https://revistavarela.uclv.edu.cu), a pedagogical publication, managed by the Faculty of Early Childhood Education of the Central University "Marta Abreu" of Las Villas, has the pleasure to announce to its readers and collaborators from the continuous publication modality, number 70 corresponding to the period January-April 2025, whose monographic section will deal with the topic:

ACTIVE METHODOLOGIES AND DIDACTIC INNOVATION

Didactic innovation requires the use of participatory and collaborative methodologies, in which the student is the active protagonist of his own learning. However, educational reality has still remained anchored to traditional teaching models that do not always respond to the needs and demands of students and today's society.

Therefore, it is necessary to continue contributing to the development of curricular models based on teaching methodologies and strategies that enhance the technical, human and social performance of students, that enable the adequate, efficient and ethical use of information and communication technologies for the creation of learning and information resources and that promote interdisciplinary work and lifelong learning, among other aspects.

The implementation of active learning methodologies that involve students in practical and meaningful activities contribute to the application of theoretical knowledge acquired in class to real situations. Precisely, this issue offers in its MONOGRAPHIC section the possibility to present contributions that address research, innovations and experiences of educational practice, in relation to the subject referred to, tempered to the demands of today's society in order to achieve more just and equitable societies.

It also features in its EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH section articles unrelated to the monograph topic, which express the results of scientific work from different angles in the educational field.
