ADHD is a disorder due to attention deficit, impulsiveness and hyperactivity due to various functional disputes, these anatomical brain inconsistencies can be genetic and/or environmental that hinders the child's lifestyle and their environment. Within the educational field, teachers cannot distinguish the attitude of a child with ADHD from one without disorders, especially in the preschool stage, which motivates the search for teaching alternatives, among them we have information and communication technologies - ICT, which allow evaluating, diagnosing, enriching and strengthening the learning of children with or without ADHD through educational software on a mobile phone, a computer and/or digital whiteboard; increasing attention, concentration, creativity, security, decreasing aggressiveness, gradually developing positive behaviors, their self-esteem improves, they feel motivated and progressively create solutions to their internal conflicts in such a way that their community learning guarantees the development of new social skills such as respect, solidarity, empathy and identifies the emotions of other people allowing a positive incorporation into their daily lives, especially in the school environment.

Access to information and digital tools worldwide is a reality through the internet; Data in the cloud, connectivity applications, work networks, however, in the area of ​​Education we find problems when implementing a strategy of dissemination, use and application of platforms in the vulnerable sector.We speak of the vulnerable sector as the group of families that do not have access to coverage or equipment that allows access to “Information and Communication Technologies”, the statement made by UNESCO shows through an international study that; approximately 1.5 billion students could not attend school due to the COVID19 pandemic, 706 million do not have access to computers, 56 million students live where there is no mobile network coverage, with which they proposed alternatives such as radio station programs and community televisions, in addition 63 million teachers do not have the means to reach students since the doors of schools were closed in 191 countries.It is necessary to accept the educational proposals that exist and translate them into the collective reality without affecting equality of opportunity, a precise case in our proposal taking as input the educational material by the Ministry of Education of Ecuador to implement an intelligent interactive support platform as a support in the learning process directed for highly vulnerable children of the preparatory sublevel, for which the guidelines have been revised and work will be carried out in the form of knowledge modules identified as: Module scope of logical-mathematical relationships, module scope of corporal expression and motor skills , module area understanding and expression of language, module area of ​​artistic expression. These modules will be programmed with content that can be interrelated with interactive books that include a specific game so that the child interacts with the information and activities proposed, giving them instant positive feedback, an incentive to continue in the game and reach complete a unit of study, likewise intelligent interactive multimedia material will be programmed, leaving a set of tools so that the teacher can include other activities with the same virtues mentioned

The inclusion of people with Attention Deficit Impulsivity and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), in school, college, university, and work has been developing since the nineteenth century because this disorder has similar symptoms to those of a hungry infant, an anxious or antisocial child, a young impetuous or otherwise without social contact, immature adults, lacking an order or commitment; but in the past it was derived from the responsibility of the elders, from the values instilled and from the culture, from the society itself, where they grew up. The inclusion of people with this disorder is due to a multidisciplinary intervention, family interaction, academic-labor-social, therapies, variety of neurobiological specialists, implementation of Educational Integration Projects (PIE) where the entity and its different human and physical resources must adapt to the students to achieve inclusion; the methodologies and processes of inclusion vary according to the field, that is, in the labor part with respect to the entities of initial, middle, and higher education.

Although children suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder tend to be nervous, not concentrated in specific jobs, anxiety that is transmitted to all those who are confined to the family, reviewed studies evidence that there are a large number of families that are affected by post-traumatic stress that obviously affects the whole home, the proposal is to create a playful environment capable of presenting scenarios that allow children to discharge their energy and focus on the educational environment, health and family well-being. The environment aims to be a counseling system that allows to identify the mood of the infant and proceeds through an intelligent system to deliver specific tasks aimed at improving the quality of life and reducing the level of anxiety, as well as helping concentration through the intervention of the family as a group or support group, we will focus on children from 4 to 6 years where children already enter virtual classes in most cases.

ADHD is an attention deficit, impulsivity, and hyperactivity disorder due to various anti-synchronization of brain functions; these anatomical brain abnormalities can be genetic and/or environmental, causing difficulty in adaptation, minimizing the child’s lifestyle. and his or her environment. ADHD has symptoms similar to the natural attitude, common in the first years of life, so it is not easy to detect in children under 6 years of age and sometimes this disorder can be developed due to external causes, For this reason, playful learning is used, through games and robots, the latter is used in a great diversity of aspects of daily living from a simple activity as a company, rehabilitation to even surgical interventions, to improve the quality of life of the human being. The treatment of ADHD is pharmaceutical and various therapies according to the clinical history of the patient. These therapies in general are motivational. They focus their achievements in treat the discipline, cognitive, depression, self-esteem, among others that allow the development of the different capacities of patients, reducing their deficiencies on these parameters; These were collected, reviewed, analyzed to be implemented using algorithms to a robot, which implies an intervention of several professionals, computers, interfaces, and simulations to rehabilitate children attractively, turning the robot into a therapeutic virtual tool, which is the objective of this work. The therapies collected for children with ADHD shortly are implemented in a robot transforming the playful learning into a therapeutic way, a virtual game instrument with medical exercises allowing adaptation school of these children with others without special treatment.

The greatest learning disadvantage that children with motor difficulties present are sustained by the limitations they have to access information, the motor deficit or motor disorder is directly associated with motor difficulties, these are frequently accompanied by alterations in sensitivity, cognition, communication, perception, behavior, which does not allow starting with the regular learning process, the work proposal is to carry out an intervention in the case of a girl with motor disability, athetosic quadriplegia at the level of curricular competencies in correlation with software and hardware applying adaptations and digital ramps in search of implementing an improvement plan through the corresponding evaluation. First, a study of the state of the art is carried out in terms of the therapies used for the inclusion of children in the classrooms, then the guide of therapies that are associated is reviewed in a specific case of the girl to help with this inclusion, it is reviewed inclusive access platforms, support tools, diagnostic and intervention software and the proposal is to generate this interface for access to reading and writing, language learning, and electronic learning as a means that facilitates training, communication and interaction. It is implemented through methodological strategies to acquire the aforementioned skills through the analysis of tools to be used with the customization of hardware and software, a diagnosis is made through the competencies that have been acquired up to this phase of school preparation, a intervention plan so that the tools are coupled to the classroom and the therapies, with a view to using it at home for the assigned tasks, then an analysis of the proposal is carried out and promising advances are presented without the need for a permanence of the tool to its progress motor graph.

The image files have data areas that are not very important for the visualization of the corresponding image and, if these areas are changed or altered, the image does not have a perceptible visual change, therefore they can be used to hide information, having almost certainty that the image has not been altered.

The scientific, technical, legal, statistical, informative and journalistic production on disability is increasingly extensive because it is one of the most relevant issues on the social agenda and this has led to public awareness has increased and institutional initiatives have proliferated. This has led to an increasing number of documents, references and data available on disability and specifically language and communication disorders, which implies that the activity of document management in this field has gained special importance. This thesaurus is available to consume them through web services and users in order to generate a useful tool for the organization, indexing and characterization of documents, applications, articles and that translates into a more adequate cataloging and a more efficient recovery based on natural language processing techniques and ontologies. Finally, the coverage of the Thesaurus of language and communication therapy is not restricted, in terms of its linguistic scope, exclusively to the Spanish language, but using translation API, language independence is generated, and it is possible to apply it to Any type of application.

Both the International Education Organization (OIE) and UNESCO have stated that promoting collaborative activities is a key competence for sustainable development. This postulate focuses on collaboration with local and international networks. In this line, it is important to mention that, in each teamwork, the members are people who interact sharing objectives, rules and deadlines linked to the activity. Under this reality, it is essential to promote study-team activities in higher education, where students can develop skills to solve problems in multidisciplinary groups. To support the process of generating efficient study-teams, in this investigation we present a system capable of exploring the best alternatives to automatically organize homogeneous study-teams that favor the best performance. Our proposal uses a personalized genetic algorithm (GA), based on student learning styles and academic profile. The experimentation phase has yielded positive results compared to the self-organization method or the teacher imposition method.

Currently, millions of articles are generated around the world on different topics or areas and published in different scientific databases. Generally, access to this repository uses search tools based on keywords that generate a list of results where sequential access is applied to generate an understanding that involves a great effort of search, classification, and selection of scientific articles within an area or specific topic. That is why, in this work, an intelligent computer system is presented that allows us to automatically obtain summaries of articles based on search keywords, which is ordered hierarchically according to the content belonging to the search keywords. Finally, this work is aimed at speech therapists and initial educators so they can have new information about tools, new trends, applications, methodologies, etc. and in turn be supportive or helpful in classrooms or speech therapies.

Universities in Latin America commonly gather much more information about their students than allowed by data protection regulations in other parts of the world. We have tackled the question of whether abundant socio-economic data can be harnessed for the purpose of predicting academic outcomes and, thereby, taking proactive actions in student attention, course planning and resource management. A study was conducted to analyze the data gathered by a private university in Ecuador over more than 20 years, to normalize them and to parameterize a Multi-Layer Perceptron neural network, whose best-performing configuration would be used as a benchmark for the comparison of more recent and sophisticated Artificial Intelligence techniques. However, an extensive scan of hyperparameters for the perceptron&mdash, exploring more than 12,000 configurations&mdash, revealed no significant relationships between the input variables and the chosen metrics, suggesting that there is no gain from processing the extensive socio-economic data. This finding contradicts the expectations raised by previous works in the related literature and in some cases highlights important methodological flaws.

The Higher Education Initiative (HEI) promoted by UNESCO and other international institutions, proposes four fundamental postulates related to the sustainable development. From these postulates, one focuses on the cooperation with local and international networks. In the same way, it is important mentioning that in every group, it members are freely interacting individuals who share accepted norms and goals and have a collective identity. For these reasons, during the university training process, it is fundamental that students learn skills to work in groups as well as to address problems in multidisciplinary teams. In the light of the above, in this paper, we present an intelligent system that determines the best alternatives to automatically generate groups of students to address practice activities and problems. Our proposal uses a genetic algorithm to analyze the personality of the students and their academic profiles. The achieved results are encouraging and show a precision of 87% according to an expert team that evaluated the system.

Nowaday, several researches focused on human beings have highlighted the importance of considering the psychological factor as part of their profile to understand their performance and behavior. The objective of this article was to create an ontology of the psychological profile that considers the personality traits and facets of the user that incorporates concepts and properties to formally model the user’s profile. For the construction of our ontology we use the NeOn methodology. In addition, for the development of the ontological network, relevant ontologies have been taken into account in the scientific field focused on the domain of the user such as: FOAF, VCARD and SKOS. By means of an alignment of these ontologies with a central module of personality traits and a specific module for the integration of the IPIP Test NEO-PI-R, it has been possible to efficiently interoperate the profile information. In the experimentation phase it was possible to obtain the SPARQL query traceability to obtain the registered responses of a person in the IPIP Test NEO-PI-R.

The Institutions of Higher-Education (IHE) seek to answer to the new ways of understanding and projecting the higher-education materialized in a graduate’s profile. Before this challenge the educational models take principally the theoretical - practical references of the critical pedagogy, the constructivism and the collaborative learning. Though there exist several offers of administration of the knowledge, which have formalized the structure organizational of the academic institutions in ontologies, considering the actors (student-teacher), the evidences that the academic process produces and since they relate among yes. None divides and explicit the development that the actors of the ecosystem take across the time. Our offer is the construction of an ontological network academician, as instrument of support to the academic body and for centralization of the information. For which we realize a process of reengineering of institutional relevant documents, as the academic record of the students, in each of your facets of learning. In addition, we interview specialists in the area and re-use ontologies of academic domain, shaping this way a strong base of knowledge.

Sporadic Groups for Online Language Learning (SGOLL) are becoming an increasingly popular service. Nowadays there are many portals whose business is to provide a meeting point for teachers and students, as well as the technological platform to support the online conversation spaces. The students' Quality of Experience (QoE) is of utmost importance for the companies running those portals, because -- as it happens in many other areas of the Web 2.0 -- potential new users pay much attention to the comments and ratings provided by others in the past. Accordingly, the companies implement mechanisms for the students to rate the teachers, in order to promote the ones who get the best evaluations. In this doctoral research, we address the question of whether they could take additional (proactive) measures in quest for greater satisfaction, trying to maximise the chances (i) that the people who gather together in a conversation session will get on well together, and (ii) that they will have interesting topics to talk about. We are developing solutions to aid in the planning of the sessions, leaning on data mining and machine learning technologies.

Online conversation spaces are becoming an increasingly popular tool for language learning. Various portals on the Internet offer technological platform where groups of students can meet native teachers and arrange conversation sessions in convenient dates and times. The students’ satisfaction is very important in this context because potential new users pay much attention to the comments and ratings provided by others in the past. Therefore, the portals implement simple mechanisms for the students to rate their experiences, and use the feedback so gathered to promote the teachers who get the best evaluations. Notwithstanding, the current online conversation portals do not implement any means to proactively supervise the formation of the sporadic groups of students, aiming to ensure that the conversations will be balanced, engaging and pleasant to everyone. In this paper we look at the question of whether social data mining and machine learning technologies can be used to maximise the chances that the people put into the same group will get on well together. Specifically, we present one approach based on mining personality traits and using Cortical Learning Algorithm to aid in the planning of the sessions.
