ABSTRACT

This research aims to identify the technological tools used by teachers in training processes to design a techno-pedagogical resource called Nano-MOOC to improve teaching and strengthen the academic performance in the Public Finance subject of the Technical University of the North (Universidad Técnica del Norte - UTN) located in the city of Ibarra-Ecuador. Research is an exploratory study, through a mixed, bibliographic, and documentary approach of a descriptive cross-sectional type, the relevance, and the need and importance of technology and techno-pedagogical resources in the teaching-learning process were demonstrated; statistical techniques were used as a methodology in RStudio; the additivity assumption was applied with the observation of the bivariate correlation matrix for a normal distribution of the data. Two variables were established: 1) The need to implement technology by teachers; 2) The importance of technology as a techno-pedagogical tool for improvement for students. The factor structure was excellent. An Anova of variable 1 was applied, which gave a p = value of 0.036 which considers students between 17 to 24 years who consider the implementation of a Nano-MOOC more necessary. The results show the validity and reliability of the construct that was demonstrated by the Confirmatory Factor Analysis that a Nano-MOOC as a techno-pedagogical resource is relevant for micro-learning. It is concluded that it is the digital natives who consider this implementation most necessary; teachers do not apply technological tools due to ignorance. A Nano-MOOC improves, feeds back the teaching-learning process, and is useful and sustainable to achieve successful professionals in academic and work performance.
