La Innovación de la
L
Esperanza
os grandes movimientos de la historia se han basado en el poder del ser humano. Son los individuos y los equipos los que inyectan innovación a las organizaciones, quienes producen los grandes cambios que revolucionan el mundo. Arquímedes decía: “Dame un punto de apoyo y moveré el mundo”, para enseñar que la palanca es capaz de multiplicar la fuerza y levantar cualquier objeto por muy pesado que sea, siempre que se tenga un punto de apoyo apropiado. Cuando alguien combina la energía y la inteligencia en el nivel correcto, estas le pueden generar una fuerza poderosa que catapulta de manera innovadora los nuevos paradigmas de la creatividad humana. Nuestra función como institución de educación superior es precisamente esa: facilitar a nuestros estudiantes la palanca y el punto de apoyo para la innovación de la esperanza. Necesitamos una vía poderosa para enfrentar los grandes desafíos que agobian a nuestra sociedad, traducidos en la pobreza y la coerción social. La pobreza no es creada por la gente pobre, sino por el sistema que hemos establecido, las instituciones que diseñamos y los conceptos que formulamos. Vivimos tiempos difíciles, pero cuando la crisis llega a su nivel más profundo, entonces estos agravantes deprimen la condición humana. Sin embargo, a pesar de la adversidad, podemos descubrir grandes oportunidades para mejorar el bienestar de nuestro entorno. Para esto, en la UNNATEC adoptamos un nuevo sistema de educación presencial y a distancia que le brindará las facilidades y el entorno de aprendizaje más idóneo para el desarrollo de sus competencias personales y profesionales, y le permitirá lograr su superación e inserción en el mercado laboral. Usted podrá estudiar, sin dejar de trabajar, y generar las entradas que le ayudarán a completar sus estudios. Así, podrá elevar su nivel de ingresos con una carrera profesional o técnica. Esta institución ha diseñado para usted una metodología innovadora y práctica, con la facilidad de todos los recursos necesarios para su aprendizaje, desde el uso de esta guía instruccional, la mediación de los tutores en los encuentros presenciales, las tutorías presenciales y a distancia, hasta el uso del aula virtual, las bibliotecas digitales y las redes sociales.

Esto es parte de nuestra misión, acompañarlo a recorrer este camino en el proceso de su formación, para que logre mejores resultados, con valor agregado, y que usted sea una inspiración personal para alcanzar la realidad que todos deseamos, “innovando la esperanza para vivir una vida digna y próspera”.

ienvenidos al sistema de educación a distancia en su modalidad semipresencial y virtual de la UNNATEC. Usted es un estudiante del siglo XXI y debe estar preparado para afrontar los grandes desafíos de la globalización y de la sociedad del conocimiento, y desarrollar las competencias personales y profesionales que lo acrediten como un individuo competente y eficiente. El propósito de esta guía instruccional es guiarlo y a la vez acompañarlo en el proceso de su propio aprendizaje. Este instrumento es suficiente en sí mismo y lo llevará a usted, paso a paso, por el camino de la construcción de su propio conocimiento. Con esta guía podrá realizar sus actividades de estudio, investigaciones y prácticas de cada eje temático de la asignatura. Nuestra propuesta metodológica para el uso de esta guía se centra en tres aspectos relevantes. Desde la perspectiva pedagógica, adoptamos el pensamiento constructivista como eje fundamental para fomentar el pensamiento crítico y creativo en la aplicación del conocimiento; desde una perspectiva comunicacional, para fomentar la dialéctica y la ética comunicativa del quehacer humano; y desde la perspectiva tecnológica, para crear los ambientes propicios de aprendizaje apoyados en las tecnologías de la información y comunicación. La articulación de la pedagogía, la comunicación y la tecnología, nos permite utilizar métodos y recursos útiles al momento de forjar las competencias requeridas en el currículo. Estas estrategias se basan en los postulados teóricos del profesor Reuven Feuerstein, quien favorece el desarrollo de los procesos mentales y las funciones cognitivas que están implícitos en las actividades educativas y en la vida social. Esta guía está diseñada con objetivos claros que puedan ser entendidos y logrados a través de su trabajo como estudiante de una manera efectiva, que le permitirá desarrollar

las competencias definidas sin pérdida de tiempo ni de recursos valiosos. Los recursos empleados en la guía, le permitirán fijar claramente los conceptos, manejar un nuevo vocabulario, elaborar mapas conceptuales y diarios de doble entrada, interactuar con sus compañeros para discutir temas de relevancia y conectarse a múltiples enlaces de informaciones y de personalidades en el aula virtual y en las redes sociales. Una vez realizadas todas las actividades de trabajo, tanto de la guía instruccional como del aula virtual, usted estará en capacidad de ser evaluado y valorado con una alta calidad en el conocimiento de su área de estudio. Espero que con esta nueva manera de lograr los aprendizajes, podamos hacer juntos un ejercicio, no solamente teórico, sino moderno y pragmático que nos permita ser mejores seres humanos y mejores profesionales.
