The project was carried out in a place called "ludoteca" in the "Nucleus of Innovation and Development of Opportunities" (NIDO). In addition, the specific objectives were: 1- Carry out methodologies that promote understanding of the socio-historical context; 2- Analyze current problems and needs that afflict the child population; 3- Understand the population dynamics involved and 4- Maintain, through play, a healthy space that favors the construction of strategies to address the problems of daily life. The starting point was theoretical references that put in a constant dialogue between community psychology and social education knowledges in latin America. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an analysis Data mining in the educational field. In the literature review the articles published in the databases and indexes were analyzed: Springer Link, Scielo, Ebsco, Redalyc, Google Académico, Dialnet, Researchgate, Scopus, Latindex. We focus on texts that refer to Latin America as a region or to a set of countries, rather than to particular countries in the region. We have also focused on texts exclusively based on research in education. And as a result have a reference material on the state of the art of the topic Data Mining in Education or Educational Data Mining in its acronym in English. In conclusion, data mining in the educational field is a new resource to reach the detection and forecast of phenomena in the educational field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The recurrent changes that we are experiencing nowadays indicates that we are immerse in the XXI century, which means that we are facing a globalized society that requires an ethical, critical and aware individual capable to face the different problems that afflict their communities or country of residence. That is why talking about linking ethical values with university responsibility is necessary, considering that the vast Latin America must educate, not only and individual trained to carry out and activity in a certain discipline of knowledge, but also that he is responsible professional with the institution that formed him, as well as with the environmental, ecological, moral and social elements. This paper aims to describe the different definitions of University Social Responsibility (RSU) talking into account characteristics such as: 1.- Impact of this in the Globalized Society 2.-Emergence of the RSU concept, based on the laws that gave rise to it, 3.- Differences between Corporate Social Responsibility (RSE) and University Social Responsibility, 4.-Ethical values and their involvement with University Social Responsibility [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses two fundamental aspects in the context of contemporary educational thinking. On the one hand, it enters into characterizing the educational from the Latin American social, theoretical and historic context, describing the configurative components of the process from Freire, Maturana and Ilich, and on the other hand, developing a synthesis of the border proposals of the sciences of cognition through a comprehensive and active educational orientation base located in the context of the ecology of knowledge and the unique cultural mosaic of South America. The methodological basis is fundamentally hermeneutic and epistemological-political. The result is a contribution to the educational discussion revealing, the processes of educational transformation, both at a personal and community level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an analysis of the existing literature on social networks in Ibero-America, with the objective of organizing the main topics covered, highlighting findings, and proposing future research paths. The four thematic areas that stand out are political communication and electronic government; journalism and traditional media; social groups (including adolescents and young people, those marginalized, women, entrepreneurs and influencers, students, and older adults) and areas of use (including commerce, tourism, education, health, professional communication); and political and civic participation. In addition, we review the literature from the perspective of the platforms (Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, and Snapchat) and from the geographical regions and countries that make up Ibero-America, to observe similarities and differences. We conclude with the mention and analysis of the two most outstanding patterns of the studies examined: 1) a tendency to expect from the networks a transformative potential that is not necessarily proven, especially in the case of political communication and journalism; 2) transformative capacity of networks in the areas of tourism, education and health, in which traditional media have not been characterized by having a prominent role. Finally, we propose some paths for future studies, among them the pursuit of comparative works, the incorporation of relational perspectives in the treatment of networks, the addition of mixed, experimental and computational methodologies, and the consideration, from the research design standpoint, of the acceleration of technological change and the need to generate questions and conceptualizations capable of surviving the passage of time.

Objective: To analyze the researches conducted in Latin America on education for health during the last ten years, identifying the different conceptual developments proposed about this theme and the criticism made about it. Methods: This is a qualitative research describing the state of the art; forty articles from Brazil, Colombia, Cuba and Mexico, and retrieved from searches in Pubmed, Lilacs, Redalyc, Scielo, Ovid, Science Direct, Oxford Journals, and Dialnet were examined. Results: The education for health is a multifocal and polysemic field with different purposes and theoretical trends. It was found that most of the authors cared for assuming a stance regarding this field, though few of them undertake the task to conceptualize both education and health. Conclusion: Different visions about education for health were perceived; however, this work criticizes the poor articulation observed in the papers between theory and practice on this regard.

The present paper aims at setting out some of our research team's theoretical concerns. The team is made up of part of the teaching staff of the School of Social Work, UNC. Its main research subject is difference within Social Sciences and its related meanings, such as unity, totality, otherness, ownliness, and so on. Different sources from a varied field, such as education, politics and gender , are analyzed in this sense. Within this framework, in this paper we propose a debate about the work "The Ignorant Schoolmaster: Five Lessons in Intellectual Emancipation" from Jaques Rancière, in which Joseph Jacotot's educative experience is analyzed. Jacotot was a French teacher exiled in Holland that had the challenge of teaching French without any knowledge of Dutch language. We consider that Rancière's contribution poses a different and controversial perspective about equality and inequality within the pedagogical relationship and the emancipation processes. The author understands that these processes are realized through the emancipation of intelligence since a conscious act of will. In the light of our research team questions, which entail the tension between rights and exclusion within the educative field, his work brings a lot of questions to us. We aim at analyzing this perspective from other authors' arguments, such as those of Boaventura de Sousa Santos, which allow us to debate and contextualize Rancière's ideas in the light of different Latin-American educative experiences.

Framed within the development policies for the region, educational agendas for Latin America represent specific commitments that transcend the improvement in the results of specific tests permeating both pedagogical practices and conceptual frameworks in which these ones acquire meaning. This paper covers some of the commitments made by these agendas and develops the general framework in which participation of philosophical community is expected and required as a guarantor and promoter of the construction of spaces for reflection and action on educational system.

This paper discusses the importance of education as the core of the integration processes in Latin America. Vindicates the principles of Simon Bolivar and his teacher Simon Rodriguez, who considered our identity expressed in the strengths that unite Latin as the common language, culture and religion, which are fundamental to any integration process to strengthen our country's subjugation of major powers covered in their technological capacity could impose its conditions. It states that any process of social development is linked to education. This is the essence of the human capacity to foster innovation inventiveness and creativity. Predisposes education energies that contribute to human development. This article attempts to demystify other criteria, in the sense of believing that some factors, such as trade and institutionalization alone contribute to development. They are multi-causal factors associated, where education is the main enabling this development. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper picks up the discussion on Norbert Elias' social development concept, as a theoretical model which may contribute to the sociologic and historical studies on indigenous peoples in Latin America. Highlighting the case of Manuel Quintín Lame in Colombia, overcoming the traditional visions of social scientists and aiming at new cognitive instruments is suggested here, in order to achieve a reading in the light of notions of figuration, process continuity and intercultural education. The aim is to go beyond the genealogic explanations with the subsequent search of alternatives in process sociology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper offers some guidelines for the characterization and development of college pastoral work, understood as a specific form of the service to the faith and the promotion of justice intrinsically implied by this service, through a communicative offer of a dialogal, interpersonal and social character, inseparable from an inculturated proposal- i.e., intimately fused with the concrete cultural reality, of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our communities of higher education directed by the Society of Jesus in Latin America.

This article is part of the analysis of the history of ideas in Latin America, which is a field of thought that contributes to recovering contributions from diverse fields of knowledge, and which has been focused on by intellectuals who consider our identity to be a theme of reflection. Luis Beltran Prieto Figueroa was one of the more influential intellectuals in 20th Century Venezuela. This paper touches on some of his works, such as Joven Empínate, El Estado y la Educación en América Latina, El humanismo democrático y la educación, La política y los hombres among others, and through philosophical discourse analyzes his ideas in relation to the fundamental doctrines of democracy, their interpretation of reality, and their positions in reference to education, politics, poetry, and nationalism as a dignifying attitude in Latin American countries in the face of the power of the United States. Among the conclusions we find the characterization of his ideas in favor of truly democratic education, the intellectual commitment with the noble aspirations of the people, his ability in studying the Venezuelan reality, and his gift at overcoming factors which were an obstacle to the technical and cultural development desired in Venezuela and Latin America.
