Abstract:
Disseminating science is complex and diverse, over time, the massification of information, whether it is assertive or useless, has led researchers to explain their scientific results in various ways, social networks, video servers, websites, and elements as diverse as podcasts or streamings now serve as a mechanism for dissemination.
It´s important to understand to whom these scientific results reach, since there are many more spaces, expanding the number of people to whom to reach, but, there is a risk that the target to which this knowledge is directed, never gets to see it and even less analyze it.
The purpose of this research work is to explain the different ways in which the efforts of the different scientific areas of the University of Guayaquil have been carried out, specifically of the Faculty of Philosophy, Letters and Educational Sciences, represented by the Pedagogy of Experimental Sciences of Computer Science, to make known to their students and the community in general, the different academic criteria, scientific articles and research carried out by the teachers of this institution.
This study proposes to modernize the use of various multimedia content to facilitate the student's understanding of a given topic, to adopt a more striking way of imparting knowledge in order to capture their attention, and at the same time for them to interpret the information in a simpler way.
To identify the problem, a methodological study was conducted, where it is presumed that there is a lack in the level of academic approach with which young people acquire knowledge, most of the time they do not review the different scientific articles that come from the career staff, do not use quality bibliographic material, do not know how to access the different educational forums, social networks, research panels and pages of scientific content that can provide them with great knowledge to their student training in which could serve as a guide for future projects.
This study was conducted entirely on students in the last semester, where there was a population of at least 51 people, using a qualitative-quantitative methodology, having as an instrument a questionnaire. We also had the collaboration of the authorities of the institution, who agreed to interviews in which we obtained results that allowed us to understand the scope of the problem.
To culminate in several proposals that have been carried out from 2020 onwards, in which we seek to achieve different levels of communication, allowing teachers and students to collaborate to learn more about the scientific material that comes from the classrooms of the Faculty, using all possible tools in different scenarios.
