In recent years, university education has had to adapt to various structural, methodological and attitudinal changes. With such changes varying as a function of geographical context, student satisfaction with education provision is unclear. The aim of t he present study was to identify student satisfaction with online university education in 2021, as a function of geographical context. The research adopted a non-experimental cross-sectional design and employed a quantitative approach. A case study was conducted of the National University of the Altiplano in Puno, Peru. A simple random probabilistic sample of 2,374 students undertaking the first semester of the 2021 academic year was recruited. Data collection was performed using the Student Satisfaction with Online University Education Questionnaire through Google Forms. Outcomes reveal the predominance of indifference (neither satisfied nor dissatisfied (42%), with the next biggest group tending towards satisfaction (27%). Great est satisfaction was expressed in relation to the teacher performance and attitude dimension (37% satisfied or very satisfied), whilst least satisfaction pertained to the use of technological resources dimension (40% dissatisfied or very dissatisfied). Significance was set at 95% with a 0.05% margin of error. Statistically significant differences were found for satisfaction with technological resources as a function of geographical context (rural versus urban; p<0.05). In conclusion, student satisfaction with online education is related to their geographical context, with greater dissatisfaction pertaining to rural areas due to the inadequacy of technological resources hindering the provision of quality online educational services.

Innovation is one of the most important pillars for sustainable competitiveness, especially in micro and small companies that operate in a dynamic and complex context. In this context, the objective of the study was to determine the influence of human, organizational, and technical innovation capacities on the level of innovation. For this, an economic model of multiple linear regression was developed. The sampling procedure was a stratified probabilistic sample of 26 micro and small exporting textile crafts enterprises from the South area of Peru, which answered a questionnaire of 52 items. The results reflect that the capacity for human, organizational, and technical innovation influence with a coefficient of determination of 96.7%, positive and significant in the level of innovation. In conclusion, human innovation capacity has a greater influence on the variability of the level of innovation, due to the creativity, motivation, and knowledge of people. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Puno, a region of Peru, the development of oral and written communication skills in basic education students displays weaknesses which could be overcome with the application of technological tools. The objective of the study was to determine the effectiveness of WhatsApp as a mobile learning resource in the development of oral and written communication skills of secondary level students at the 'José Carlos Mariátegui' educational institution (Puno-Peru). The population was comprised of 343 students and a non-probabilistic, convenience sampling was applied to include two fourthlevel sections of 36 and 34 students, respectively. The first was the experimental group and the second, the control group. The selection was made considering that fourth-level students are the most appropriate age to use WhatsApp in order to assess the evolution of their skills through rubrics, in a participatory way. Statistical analysis was based on the difference in means with a Z distribution, with a 95% confidence level. The results show that WhatsApp develops significant oral and written communication skills, as those skills rose by 3.5 points on average, on a twenty-point scale, after the experiment. Thus, WhatsApp is a mobile learning technology resource available to develop skills and strengthen knowledge in students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of the research was to identify the influence of urban indicators on the urban sustainable development of metropolitan Huancayo, Junín region - Peru, including its specific city components and territory configuration, management of natural resources, social cohesion and economic development in urban sustainable development. Three methodologies were applied: the first of evolutionary mapping indicators and the census information system, the second was the testing of methodological records of the integrated system of urban indicators with the urban plans made from 1961 to 2011 and the third methodology for estimating the level of sustainable development of territories, Biogram 2008 prepared by the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA). Achieving the following results: the 1961 bulk density of 115.87 dpHa has decreased steadily reaching in 2011 until 93, 67 dpHa, the contrasting urban plans made from 1961 to 2011, from 14 indicators obtained, only 1 applies, noting that 13 indicators do not apply due to methodological flaws, which do not allow monitoring to be followed due to lack of reliability, finally the biogram shows us the trend toward urban stability. The results show the practical usefulness of the urban indicators, thus demonstrating the degree of influence in the current and predictable situation of the urban habitat that, despite having a vegetative growth in an inertial and spontaneous way, lead to increase the sustainability in the medium term.

The objective of this study is to present characteristics of sexual offenders of a sample of male sexual abuse victims in the center-west of Brazil. A documentary analysis was made based on mandatory reporting of male victims in 2013 and 2014, and the main results found refer to the number of sexual offenders (N = 328), the relationship to the victim (the majority intrafamily), their age (mostly adolescents) and gender (mostly male). Because sexual abuse is a complex phenomenon, it is considered relevant to broaden the understanding about offenders and to include them in public policies and psychosocial care agendas. The provision of specialized care for this population is fundamental to guarantee comprehensive protection of children and adolescents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This is a documentary research aimed at the characterization of sexual abuse against children, based on the records of a public health institution of the protection network for children and adolescents in the Federal district (Brazil), which is one of the actors that must perform tertiary prevention for victims of sexual abuse and their rapists. Fifty one cases of sexually abused children were identified in the last 13 years, of which 35 were included in the analysis, according to the following information: age of reception by the institution, occurrence of sexual abuses, lapse of time between date of the assault and reception, lapse of time between date of reception and provision of service, level of education, housing, religion, family income, intra- or extra-familial sexual abuse. the quantitative analysis was based on descriptive statistics to characterize the victim's profile and the context of the sexual abuse. participants showed similarities to data obtained in southern Brazil with respect to age of abuse, lower prevalence of sexual abuse in boys than in girls and level of education. the lapse of time between sexual victimization and arrival at an institution is usually from 2 to 3 years. the family income of this clientele seen in the public agency is between 2 to 3 minimum wages (60 dollars). results reveal that overcrowding is a peculiarity in family organization as a result of settlement policies in the region. such an organization increases the vulnerability of children and adolescents and constitutes a risk factor for the occurrence of intra- and extra-familial sexual abuse.
