Research on training in knowledge related to geolocation with technologies shows the training potentials and limitations that these resources offer for teachers in training. This study examines the perceptions of the instructional effectiveness of mobile devices and geolocation software, by analyzing the performance in the TPACK skills dimensions of future teachers (n = 383). A mixed methodology has been implemented, with a descriptive cross-sectional approach as well as inferential analysis based on questionnaires (α ≥ .903) and the tasks carried out by the sample. The results show a poor didactic use of technologies while confirming the acquisition of knowledge about geolocation. This corroborates the benefits of applying an improvement in the digital competence of teachers in training

Similarly, the gender perspective is used to analyze the gender categories that structured the journalistic discourse around the construction of the image of what would be the first female president of Nicaragua.

The language, in addition to the communicative functions that it fulfills, is also a marker of cultural identity and political struggle of the peoples; it is the bridge through which the culture, worldview and cognitive heritage of a people is transmitted. In Guatemala, as in the other countries of the Americas, indigenous languages have been exterminated, displaced or made invisible, first by the colony and then by linguistic extermination policies of the "national" states. The inclusion of state policies for the recovery, study and promotion of native peoples' languages is recent. The revitalization of indigenous languages depends mainly on the same members of the indigenous peoples, but also on the States, through favorable linguistic policies, especially for establishing their official rank and creating the conditions for their use in all areas of life, too, is important the planning of the linguistic body and the way of learning them from home and educational centers at all levels.

At present, the Andean fabrics continue to allow us to enter the symbolic world of their weavers and with it, their production. We can affirm that the textile activity is a work whose production is lasting, even when the garments wear out, there is knowledge and knowledge transmitted from one generation to another that continue to remain At present, the textile activity is considered as an unproductive and low value activity. Its makers (weavers / weavers) know that their production is unique and unrepeatable, hence their intrinsic valuation, and that, even if it is sold at a very low cost, its profit will allow it to survive. The problem lies in consumers, who do not know or do not want to know the value of this activity. This work will attempt to reflect on the complexity of the concept of labor and work in H. Arendt, linked to work or textile work. And on the other, to analyze its resistance, even when the textile process underwent modifications throughout a long historical process, where the raw materials, the dyeing process, the iconography embodied in the tissues, the textile instruments and the functions changed, that remained immune were his techniques.

This brief essay aims to address the issue of globalization and integration from the cultural identity and its construction, taking up José Martí's Latin American perspective, to land the most specific challenges of the integrationist project in the face of globality. It has been considered useful to retake identity as a category of study, because one cannot speak of integration, without first finding or analyzing the cultural identity of a region, for this purpose the theory of cultural hybridization proposed by García Canclini has been taken as support. On the other hand, a more philosophical perspective is included to locate the reality of the Latin American from Dussel's thought.
