Based on need for intercultural approach to cultural and linguistic diversity in primary school students, this article shows racist attitudes and discrimination against rural, Andean and Quechua context in culturally different social groups. This situation raises the following question: how do the intercultural competences of primary school teachers manifest themselves in urban context of Huaraz city, Peru? Methodology used is educational ethnography with interpretative, sociocritical and humanistic features, whose design and development are summarized in three moments: pre-configuration, configuration and reconfiguration of reality. Also, theoretical, and empirical methods such as the participant observation and the in-depth interview applied to teachers were used. Findings refer presence of rural students who speak Quechua in the school; shortcomings in the approach to intercultural diversity; and shortcomings in intercultural competences of urban teachers. Finally, we conclude there is a need to develop intercultural competences in teachers to ensure an education and intercultural society.

This article discusses assessment practices in primary education and implicit theories in teaching. Cultural practice and social interactions in the classroom create personal experiences, which are the basis for teachers’ individual mental representations, known as implicit theories. These conceptions guide their teaching, but they are not generally studied, unlike the theories of the scientific community. Although implicit theories may be different, teachers from the same educational institution generally share them and they regulate them in relation to the context. This study seeks to identify and interpret the implicit theories on learning assessment of a primary school teacher in Puno, Peru. The methodology used was grounded theory. For this purpose, the empirical method, such as participant observation and in-depth interviews, was used. The main result was identifying in the teacher an assessment practice with a prevalence of constructive and interpretive theory traits.

Introduction: the occupational stressing nursing professionals is one of the most common problems within their work environment, factors such as shortage of biosafety equipment, high patient demand and not having adequate communication between staff, causes stress to increase considerably interfering with care of quality in patients, therefore the research objective is to determine the stress in nurses working in health facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic in North Lima.Methods: it is a quantitative, descriptive-transversal study with a population of 255 nurses who answered a questionnaire of sociodemographic data and the Nursing Stress Scale in its Spanish version.Results: In the results it was observed that professionals who are on duty between 1 and 5 years, 22,4 % have low stress, 43,9 % medium stress and 33,6 % high stress.Conclusions: In conclusion, strategies should be carried out to maintain the healthy mental health of nurses through counseling with professionals specialized in mental health

The post-pandemic stage covid-19 has revealed overloads, ambiguities, and conflicts of teachers in the performance of new roles in hybrid classrooms that demanded an urgent adaptation, this highlighted the need for priority attention to the mental health of teachers, however, there are still insufficient studies that transcend the diagnosis and are committed to establish proposals for improvement. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to establish a proposal for the promotion of positive mental health (PMH). METHODS: The study was deployed from a qualitative approach; using an ethnomethodological design that allowed studying how teachers create meanings and sense in their work context, an appreciative interview was conducted with an affirmative theme that allowed teachers to expose their experiences that were systematized and processed with ATLAS. ti software. The application of the interview was conducted online through a Google form, during the months of February and March 2023. Three hundred university professors who experienced the pandemic in universities in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Peru participated, based on a convenience sampling. RESULTS: The results of the deductive phase confirmed Lluch's PMH theoretical framework; however, new nuances or variations have been identified, which must be considered in the complex and dynamic nature of each PMH factor. From there, the results of the inductive phase allowed revealing emerging concepts, that is, new categories that would have the function of improving the PMH factors, which is why they have been denominated: dynamizing nuclei. PMH dynamizing nuclei are adjustment to work environment, soft skills, work-family balance, self-motivation, self-efficacy, subjective well-being, proactive strategies, engagement, resilience. CONCLUSIONS: Finally, with the results of both phases, the creation of an integrated model was generated, which was evaluated by six experts in a round of feedback, who highlighted the relevance of the findings and offered recommendations that were considered in the study. The new integrated model has revealed an interesting association, since it not only legitimizes the PMH's dynamizing cores, but also informs on which specific factor of the PMH these cores have the greatest impact, which has a high guiding value for intervention and improvement based on focused strategies.

As part of a recent change, Augmented Reality (AR) has filled engineering classrooms, being employed for various pedagogical purposes around the world. However, little is known about the different features and uses of this technology in Latin America. This Scoping Review asks how are educational AR systems designed, used and evaluated in the region, comparing this to the international literature. To address this question, we charted 36 conference papers and scientific articles, taking care of the quality gaps and methodological diversity within our sample. Our results show that, even though most converge on conventional research, design and pedagogical practices, engineering educators working at institutes are taking the lead of design, pedagogical and research innovation. Furthermore, we show that Latin-American literature distinctively reveals how teachers adapt to the particular contexts of teaching, and the special importance of the usually overlooked conference papers literature.

El objetivo fue determinar la influencia significativa del programa “Fortaleciéndome” en el nivel de agresividad. La muestra estuvo conformada por estudiantes de una escuela de Comas, con edades entre los 10 y 11 años. Se empleó como instrumento el Cuestionario de Agresividad de Buss y Perry (1992, adaptación a la realidad peruana de Matalinares et al., 2012). Se planificó un diseño cuasiexperimental, en el pretest los resultados fueron similares tanto en el grupo control como en el grupo experimental (niveles promedio y alto, respectivamente). En el postest los resultados fueron distintos: el grupo control mantuvo su nivel inicial, pero el grupo experimental redujo su nivel de agresividad. Los resultados estadísticos obtenidos (Z=5,957 > 1,6706 y p= 0.000 < 0.05) permiten afirmar que la aplicación del programa “Fortaleciéndome” sí tuvo una influencia significativa en la disminución de la agresividad, y en sus dimensiones agresividad física, agresividad verbal, ira y hostilidad.
