Because it must be considered social, environmental, and technical factors, choosing a suitable site for a landfill is a challenging task. The scientific selection of a landfill site is based on a variety.....

Abstract: In times of the digital era, traditional teaching, widely used in earlier times, is now being questioned by many teachers and researchers who believe in greater teaching performance if it is enhanced by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Therefore, the aim of this study is to reflect on the importance of ICT as a didactic-pedagogical subsidy in Basic Education for Pedagogical Innovation. Pedagogical Innovation, in turn, seeks to introduce new teaching methods in order to compose creative and playful learning, whether through the use of active methodologies, digital technologies, among other resources that underpin a teaching that goes beyond the theoretical, beyond the notebook and the book, but to the reality of children and adolescents who today.....
