The presentation was part of the VII INACAP Educational Congress organized by the Center for Innovation in Education CIEDU and the School of Humanities and Education of said institution.

“Construction of an innovative culture for the inclusion of technical-professional higher education” was the thematic axis of the congress led by the INACAP institution, in which researchers linked to education participate annually. On this occasion, the event provided space for the presentation of works related to innovations that can be used in the classroom.

“It is of utmost importance that teaching is carried out appropriately, implementing defined and intentional innovations, which allow the learning of professionals in training in higher education institutions to be enhanced. Therefore, the systematization of these experiences gives clear lights to be able to replicate them in other higher education contexts, allowing the real scope of the learning proposed in the study programs to be monitored, and which are part of the progressive achievement of the students' graduation profile. ”, he expressed.

Furthermore, the space gave the opportunity to learn about research and innovative pedagogical experiences in areas such as mechanics, health, robotics, engineering, languages, social sciences and humanities, managing to exchange procedures and tools that have worked effectively in the classroom and that have achieved the scope of learning by the students.

In this way, participation in these instances enabled the academic community to nourish the knowledge and actions carried out by higher education institutions to improve teaching practices.

“In the PMI FIP ULS 1501 we are carrying out the Support Plan for the Implementation of the renewed curriculum in the pedagogies of the ULS, a process that has its complexity, is recursive and that should be reflected within the classrooms in the initial training of teachers . Furthermore, and to contribute to the ongoing training of academics who teach in pedagogy careers, last year we carried out the Diploma in Didactic Innovation in Initial Teacher Training, where different models and methodologies were worked on to enhance active learning of students at FIP. Likewise, we carry out workshops and courses, which are always available for academics in this line. All these processes must be reflected within the classroom and in the various learning environments, since they are the places where our teachers in training make the journey to become professionals that are required in today's XNUMXst century society," the researcher emphasized.
