This thesis contains an investigative study of the methodological application in the teaching-learning of natural sciences in the sixth year of basic education in public schools in the city of Loja.
Bibliographic consultation, observation and the application of surveys and a natural sciences test were applied as research techniques. The instruments were applied to a representative sample of 47 teachers and 111 students.
The fundamental objective that has been achieved is to analyze the methods that teachers apply and propose an objective treatment of this area of study.
Two hypotheses are proposed and tested, which demonstrate that there is actually a significant statistical relationship between the methods used by teachers in the teaching-learning of natural sciences and the quality of the skills that students develop and that natural science teachers are using an appropriate methodology to teach natural sciences at that educational level.

Water, one of the main vital resources for human beings, which is currently a cause of concern for the world, the country, the province and the region, is why different governmental and non-governmental institutions are implementing conservation programs and protection of this important resource
The springs and springs are highly vulnerable to natural, anthropogenic and technological phenomena, which constantly threaten this resource, which once altered, can hardly be recovered with its own and natural characteristics.
The present research work provides, alternatively, the proposal of activities for the conservation, protection and recovery of water springs, caused by all types of anthropogenic actions, deteriorated within certain territorial units that correspond to the large flows of the paramo ecosystem. The proposal approaches the reality of the community investigated, being able to determine the type of activities carried out by the population in relation to the production model and, as a relevant topic, the identification and quantification of sites degraded by them. For this reason, emphasis is certainly placed on the recovery, protection, and conservation of the riverbanks of the basins and micro-basins that the community has with special treatment.

Cultura organizacional y desempeño en las mecánicas de la ciudad de Latacunga
(Ecuador: Latacunga: Universidad Técnica de Cotopaxi, 2024-10-15) Proaño Osorio Alexis Nicolay; Martínez Ortiz Fabian Xavier
This study addresses the relationship between organizational culture and performance in mechanical workshops in the city of Latacunga, Ecuador. The central problem lies in the lack of understanding about how different aspects of organizational culture influence business performance in the context of mechanical workshops, a crucial sector for the local economy. The main objective of the research is to analyze and quantify the impact of organizational culture, broken down into dimensions: cooperative, cultural coherence and effectiveness, on the performance of mechanical workshops. To address this objective, the PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling) methodology was used. Information was collected through structured surveys from workshop owners and employees, and various variables related to organizational culture and performance were analyzed. The results of the PLS-SEM analysis revealed that cultural effectiveness is the dimension that has the greatest positive impact on workshop performance, followed by cultural coherence and cooperative culture. The coefficients obtained were validated using a bootstrap procedure, which confirmed their robustness and statistical significance. Cultural effectiveness showed a coefficient of 0.539, indicating a strong and positive relationship with performance, while cultural coherence and cooperative culture presented coefficients of 0.227 and 0.220, respectively. In conclusion, the findings underline the importance of strengthening organizational culture as a key strategy to improve the performance of mechanical workshops in Latacunga.
