Análisis, diseño e implementación de una aplicación móvil que facilite el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje del lenguaje de los niños con síndrome de down del inicial II de la fundación Fasinarm de Guayaquil.

Abstract

We live in a technological age that permeates all areas of our human existence: home, work, transport, health, communication, etc. Technology aims to improve the lives of people - making them safer and more comfortable - something that can happen if and when we make good use of it. Technology has also made significant changes in the field of education, providing, above all, new tools for teaching and learning. In Ecuador there are many foundations concerned with the training of children, youth and adults with special needs, as well as fostering their inclusion in society. One of these foundations is the FASINARM Foundation, an organization with many years of experience in the field of special education. The FASINARM Foundation counts on several technological tools in the education it provides for students; however, the tools available are few. For this reason, the current project aims to provide a tool aimed precisely at the early levels of education (particularly at the initial level II) where children with Down Syndrome receive classes and therapies while learning to communicate through verbal language.The project proposed is to develop a mobile application that facilitates the process of teaching and learning language for children with Down Syndrome at the Initial FASINARM level II in the organization’s founding city of Guayaquil. The application developed in this project is presented as a tool to strengthen and support language therapies that the children with Down Syndrome receive daily.
