The presence of life on its surface makes the Earth unique. No evidence of living organisms exists in any other part of our solar system even though the Earth was formed in the same giant clouds of gas and dustthat formed the Sun, Mars, and Venus and the rest of the solar system over 4600 million years ago. Why is the Earth so special? Although different hypotheses exist, no one knows how life originated. The earliest life forms on Earth probably resembled modern bacterial cells.

The coastal zones are interesting sites, because they contain all kinds of resources that are of interest to tourism. Biotic and abiotic components are intertwined in unique ecosystems, that provide abundant biological diversity, with environments, marine and terrestrial in turn, refuges of typical flora and fauna, with species of passerby birds, combined with the attractive space of sun andbeach, the abundant breeze with a peculiar aroma, the coming and going of fishermen and merchants, whose idiosyncrasy differs from the environment of a city and rural area or intramontane, providing a rich cultural value that attracts the visitor. This investigation offered variants that allow the promotion of tourism for local development in these places, especially small communities, since at times, their own inhabitants are unaware of the treasure they have. In order to do this, it was involved in matters related to tourism and its most demanding needs today, as well as the values that treasure those areas and that constitute an unparalleled attraction. The creation of small, environmentally friendly tourist businesses can be a driving force for local development. Historical methods of documentary research were applied, as well as empirical ones based on the observation andsurveys, through simple random sampling in two coastal communities, one Cuban and one Ecuadorian, offering general ideas applicable to any coastal zone, especially, those of the tropics and subtropics of the planet and very punctually, in those that count on wonderful ecosystems like mangroves.

The incidence of adrenal insufficiency is 1: 100 000. The primary causes are rarer, barely constitute 40% and are frequently linked to infectious diseases or autoimmune etiology. The objective is to describe the presentation of a case of primary chronic adrenal insufficiency of autoimmune etiology diagnosed in the General Hospital of Cienfuegos. Patient of 25 years, comes for abdominal pain. During the examination he reported a change in skin color and episodes of hypoglycemia. It is hypotensive. The complementary ones gave light hyponatremia. Subsequent study showed elevated ACTH and low Cortisol. Rest of the blood and imaging tests without alteration. The patient is under medication and followed up by consultation. Without complications.

The hygrothermal comfort conditions offered by the one-storey houses built by the government in the housing program Socio Vivienda 1(PHSV1G), motivated the authors to investigate the reasons why indoor temperature is higher than outdoor temperature. Therefore, this study aims to diagnose the hygrothermal comfort degree by convection and conduction, and its causes, in two PHSV1G houses with different orientation. The purpose is to offer a tool, which may improve future housing construction projects, optimize the habitability and comfort conditions of the inhabitants, and contribute to energy saving. Likewise, the intention is to prevent such houses from permanent energy demand, in order to ventilate or climatize every engaged environment, without affecting the inhabitants’ monthly invoicing. Finally, this article will contribute to save the energy subsidized by the government, which over time, could imply to the government an expense greater than housing cost. Hence, an investigation guide in the axes of comfort and technology was established, allowing to become acquainted of the several causes that contribute to temperatureincrease, through hygrothermal thermometers and anemometers measurements, as well as the use of the DesignBuilder energy simulation software.

Territories and societies are complex, as they are constituted and intervened by a multiplicity of elements and factors of different nature: natural, social, political, economic, cultural, legal, technological, ethnic, religious, among others. These factors go through and characterize the living and working conditions of human settlements that occupy a certain geographical space at a given historical moment. For its part, participatory management does not invoke a new participation model or a new type of participation, which is intended to be managed through participation. It is the obtaining of a result from the active involvement of those social actors who have experience on the particular object. The participative management of the geographical space is based on thecontribution of the people who have a link - understood this by knowledge or experience - with the territory, either from the coexistence or from the administration. It is assumed that all individuals have knowledge of the place they inhabit which has been given by empirical experience. In fact, permanence may be an element to be taken into account for more favorable management. However, mobility and scientific knowledge are factors that facilitate more effective information on the interactions that occur in the territory. Collective intelligence may provide the  necessary knowledge to determine the actions that must be undertaken in local development projects.

This scientific paper focuses the problem of classification of methods of scientific research. Probably covered in theoretical research, not just what they have been awarded scientific knowledge that it is obtained, but also the method by which it is obtained. Is there any chance that supports logical methodological consistency of classification methods in this science are instituted? What reasonattends the defense of the idea, that the methodology of scientific research stands through empirical methods, where, regardless of the empirical constitutes the above to the scientific level, the theoretical and the empirical are exclusive natures of knowledge? Whatarguments invoked in order to demonstrate the falsity of the thesis in which I become identical knowledge and methods according to their scientific nature? Why cling undoubtedly the medieval universal educational thought to absolute canons and the concept ofmethod as a way or path holding? we would not be far from the scientificity that he quintessential definition and it shouldbe given? The basal idea is to defend and to subsume questions formulated above is to be irrevocably dialectical relationshipbetween the method and theory, which necessarily comes first classification.

The University is one of the most important cultural institutions in the society, that which is demonstrated in its social and culturalmission: to graduate professionals with an integral general formation that allows him to work in their educational practice, school, and community. In this sense the education in the universities in the pedagogic careers a prepared professional presupposes culturally so that I/you/he/she can influence in a positive way in the students that she will have the responsibility of forming. In this zeal he/she stands out the discipline Artistic Education that contributes to the development of knowledge and the future teachers' abilities and to direct the Musical Education and Plastic Education in the context of the school. From this perspective it is possible touse the Musical Education with their components, specifically the rhythmic education, like an alternative in the activity managed logopédica to the prevention, the diagnosis and the correctioncompensation in the students of the general and special education that present dysfunctions of the language and of the communication, so that in that way they appropriate of tools that allow him toachieve their positive transformation and the maximum development possible of the talkative abilities and of the personality andintegration to the family, community, school, labor and social life.

This paper aims to reflect on the need for the pedagogical formation of teachers in exercise of the Nursing Career in Ecuador.Such reflection is based on a study on continuous formation in Ecuadorian universities, which throws the existence of few experiences on teacher training. The relevance of the exhibition is that the teachers working are heterogeneous. And on the other in their professional formation were not prepared for the exercise of teaching. The methodology is essentially qualitative, based on the study of scientific and legislative existing documentation and the implementation of methods that provide relevant information about the real state of the problem and the need for its transformation through alternatives ofpedagogical formation

The discipline Engineering of the Human Factor in the training of Industrial Engineers its theoretical conception, is based on the analysis and solution of problems in production processes or services and the improvement of the man involved in them, being the case study the fundamental method to use in their subjects. In the teaching - learning process of each subject of the discipline, there are inadequacies in the ways of solution of the method by students. The objective of the work presented is to implement the methodology for the activation of the teaching - learning process in the Human Factor Engineering discipline, which allowed the student to identify, elaborate, analyze and solve cases in the work context, linking several teaching methods - learning.

In this research, the diagnose graphomotor skills as a psychomotor strategic part, and cognitive development in early childhood children, for growth and effectiveness in everyday school activities. The review of research work related to motor skills, yields certain results that are alarming, in terms of motor development, generating difficulties and detachment in school responsibilities, especially in children in early childhood education. Throughout the investigation, in conjunction with the theoretical review, this problem is attacked based on graphomotor skills, as the main axis, capable of generating a series of knowledge and above all a methodological model that allows solving the observed situation. The subject becomes interesting, due to the amount of skills and abilities that the graphomotor as a tool, is throwing. The praxia, harmoniously accompanies the construction of the methodology, due to its goodness related to the psychomotor system to increase the body movement of the writing. This research has aqualitative, descriptive and explanatory approach, which reinforces the methodology applied. The conclusions and discussions will give support to the proposed methodology, which opens the doors to new lines of research, for future studies, related to the cognitive development in children of early education.
