View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:The present work intends to approach the EKUI methodology as a literacy strategy. Through a brief exploratory qualitative study, which despite being insipient, intends to give clues of the usefulness of the resource for future research. The EKUI methodology is designed to help identify, assess, and intervene in the skills necessary for learning to read, write, and communicate. The study has methodological options for the application of questionnaires to professionals who are applying the EKUI methodology in the current year. Furthermore, the methodology aims to applicate a semi-structured interview to professionals who have already applied the methodology in their pedagogical intervention, in order to validate its contributions. The results obtained show the importance of the EKUI methodology as a strategy of Universal Learning Design and, consequently, as a promoter of a reflective attitude in teachers. On the other hand, it also contributes to the identification and intervention in necessary skills for learning to read, write and communicate.
