The lack of implementation of innovative strategies in health interventions constitutes a flaw in the prevention and control programs of vector diseases. An observational descriptive, cross-sectional and educational intervention study was carried out with the objective of implementing a nursing intervention plan aimed at preventing and controlling the incidence of vector diseases in the parish Salango del Cantón Puerto “Daniel López”. The sample consisted of 170 residents who willingly wanted to participate in the study. The research was carried out in three stages: diagnosis (application of surveys and interviews), intervention (educational activities) and evaluation of the intervention (10 months later). The female gender prevailed in both locations, the largest population was adult, with basic educational level. It was detected that in both communities they have had cases of dengue, chikungunya or zika. Some high-risk microdeterminant factors were the lack of water supply, extreme poverty, the disposal of solid waste by car and the lack of implementation of behaviors in disease prevention practices and ignorance of their causes. Education was implemented as a strategy for vector control by providing educational talks and destruction of breeding sites in Mingas, which had a high impact, since, after a winter after the intervention, vector morbidity rates dropped to zero cases. A plan for strengthening the nursing intervention carried out is proposed, which is executed in a sustained manner with the collaboration of students of UNESUM.

The present investigation was based on a diagnosis and identification of the needs of the ULEAM Tourist Observatory of the Bahía de Caráquez Extension, which is an institutional research project, created with the purpose of potentiating the tourist destination of the northern area of ​​Manabí that includes the cantons of Sucre, San Vicente, Jama and Pedernales, generating timely, updated and continuous information, based on the monitoring of supply and demand that allows decision-making and the design of strategies that improve its competitiveness. Based on the problem detected, the generation of a database containing the evaluation of the web positioning of the hotel companies of the aforementioned destination is proposed, which is proposed to be structured in three strategic phases: the first phase of the diagnosis conceived by the construction of a database containing the list of hotel companies in the four cantons; the second phase in order to verify the web presence (Website, social networks and OTAs) of the companies that provide hotel services; and the third phase to evaluate the web presence of hotel companies through a platform that measures standardized parameters (SEO).

This work describes the construction and validation of a questionnaire to study the motivation towards mathematics and its learning with the use of technology. A component analysis is carried out from its application to 229 students of Agricultural Engineering, in Computer Systems and Computation and Networks of the State University of the South of Manabí. A survey was applied to evaluate four different aspects of students' motivation towards the use of technology in the process of teaching and learning of mathematics, which we consider important: usefulness of technology in mathematics, motivation of students for Implementation of technology in mathematics, non-usefulness of technology in mathematics, and student results regarding the learning of mathematics with the use of technology. The factorial analysis of the questionnaire results in a five-factor model as the most representative, with a residual factor and four relevant factors. This analysis confirms the congruence of the questionnaire with the initial approach and proves its reliability and internal consistency. The internal consistency analysis by factor allowed us to identify that the first four factors of the model found for our study are relevant. The latter can be considered as a residual factor, since it has a low internal consistency. In general, the four relevant factors that have emerged from the factor analysis show the congruence of the questionnaire with the established structure, which sought to evaluate the four initial factors.
