Motivation is vitally important for learners' learning, because it is the starting point for learning, creates the drive to act, and makes learning possible. The objective of this document is to determine the degree of influence of motivation on the academic performance of students. The research methods were used: empirical, descriptive and investigative, an interview was applied to the psychologist of the institution and the data collection was done through the survey technique applied to 66 students. The results of the instruments showed that the students lack to determine their interests and needs, they have not set goals, or life projects. It is the teacher and the parents of families who have to help develop the capacities and abilities in order to prepare them for life and to acquire the change of attitude of the student, an effective motivation must be applied in the educational process; teach study habits so that they are interested, value education and become aware that this is the only one that will bring society out of underdevelopment.

Student exchange has become a training strategy for universities due to globalization, allowing students to expand their knowledge. The objective of this article is to determine the internal operation of the Student Mobility Program at the Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco. The method used was empirical and was based on an intentional sample of 103 questionnaires applied to students whose curricular progress was between 50% and 96%. The main results highlight that 100% of students are aware of the existence of the program and most prefer to stay in countries where the language is not difficult for them, so 31% of them chose to travel to countries in the American continent. One of the benefits obtained from mobility, according to university students, is academic and personal development. The Mobility program promotes academic training, opening the way to the competitiveness required by the labor field and at the same time allows students to learn about the culture of other countries.

La universidad laica Eloy Alfaro de Manabí ha cambiado sus modalidades de estudio manejándose en la actualidad con una aula virtual que sirve de interacción entre la universidad, los docentes y los estudiantes es por ello que el siguiente trabajo pretende manifestar el diseño de una aplicación móvil para notificar las actividades del aula virtual de la Universidad Laica “Eloy Alfaro” de Manabí debido a que existe incumplimiento en las tareas, es por eso que se va a diseñar la aplicación móvil para evitar el incumplimiento de las misma, para ello se realizó una investigación bibliográfica para la gestión del aula virtual y aplicación móvil, se ejecutó un análisis de los datos obtenidos, aplicando una encuesta a estudiantes y docentes, se puede notar que más de la mitad han incumplido actividades en el aula virtual, los trabajos han sido realizado a último momento por desconocimiento de estos, además de eso se constata que el servicio brindado por el aula virtual esta entre bueno y regular hay muchas cosas que mejorar, es por ello que una aplicación móvil seria de uso muy importante ya que de esta manera se disminuirían las tares incumplidas del aula virtual y de esta manera los docentes y estudiantes tendrán menos inconvenientes con la falta de tareas para la ponderación de la nota.

Reseña de la exposición de Yolanda Herranz en MARCO, Museo de Arte Contempránea de Vigo.

Since its opening to the public in 2008, the MUME has been giving importance to artistic creation throughout its programmatic proposal. Moreover, in the permanent exhibition which leads the thematic axis of the museum, contemporary creation already has a very significant role. The materials used, the museographic devices distribution, the interchange between visual and artistic resources along with the historical explanation, place the MUME on the same line as other international memorial institutions. Therefore, from the very beginning, the presence of art among historical narrative was considered unavoidable.
