Orientación psicoeducativa enfocada en el desarrollo de habilidades socioemocionales en adolescentes de una unidad educativa particular

Abstract

This systematic review describes the experiences developed with students between the ages of 12 and 14 in a private school in the city of Guayaquil. The main objective of the guidance was to strengthen the adolescents' socio-emotional skills through psychoeducational workshops focused on self-perception, self-esteem, communication skills, and strengthening interpersonal relationships. To achieve this objective, the project employed qualitative approaches based on the research model of Oscar Jara and Hernández Sampieri. This method allowed for clear, critical, and contextual interpretation. During the process, semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, group discussions, and participatory activities were conducted to better understand the students' social, behavioral, and emotional needs. The results showed that the adolescents were gradually identifying their emotions, expressing their ideas, and building empathic and respectful relationships with their peers. The systematization allowed us to identify factors that contributed to its success, such as the willingness of the teaching team and the active participation of the Student Counseling Department (DECE). We also identified shortcomings, such as limited time for activities. It is concluded that the project not only seeks to promote students' emotional well-being but also promotes an accessible and cohesive learning environment.
