Detalle

The first study: a) describes the development of semantic analysis methods to evaluate the complexity of primary school textbooks and their effect on children's mental representations of the texts and their comprehension of them; b) describes some cognitive functions of 5th and 6th grade children. The second study evaluates the mathematical performance of preschool children using the Numeracy Screener test to characterize numerical processing in them and to establish the relationship between basic numerical skills and environmental factors. The third study aims to describe the active learning strategies used by a group of school children from second to sixth grade, while determining whether there is a relationship between the use of these strategies and mathematical and reading comprehension performance. In general, the results show the usefulness of having evaluation and intervention techniques based on the use of ICTs, as well as the impact they can have on children's academic performance, learning and motivation.
