The first one seeks to respond to the global contexts in which science and technology are immersed. Therefore, it touches on different contents such as knowledge, the organization of learning, methodological strategies, evaluation and the classroom climate.
Likewise, the second thematic axis of this international congress considers the ideal and necessary complementary elements that allow success in the achievement of learning, and, in this way, favors the development of research skills at various educational levels.
