Abstract

In the Ecuadorian educational context, great progress has been made throughout history; education for indigenous people and women, increase in the literacy rate and today access to quality education for all. However, despite the changes that have taken place in education; laws, educational plans, regulations, and public policies; there are still shortcomings in the inclusion of children and/or adolescents with disabilities, special educational needs (SEN) and their own, the lack of financial resources for education and, above all, the methodologies applied in educational institutions still lack strategies and appropriate actions for student diversity and full development. The objective is to analyze the impact of education in Ecuador from the perspective of educational psychology through a meta-analysis. It also seeks to determine whether the traditional educational model provides tools, skills, and abilities to all students to cope with today's ever-changing society. The methodology used is of a procedural nature with elements of descriptive scope; information is collected, which was subjected to a meta-analysis from educational psychology. The results found that there is little information and research on the educational models implemented in Ecuador; the influence they have on the skills, abilities, aptitudes, and capacities of students when facing the changing society.
