Teaching technology to underserved agricultural science students in low- and middle-income countries
This Perspective argues that teaching technology to agricultural science students in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) who face persistent constraints in access to devices, electricity, connectivity, prior digital preparation, and mentorship should be organized around building durable capabilities for agricultural problem-solving rather than short-lived training in specific tools. We argue that technology education is most effective when i…
Unlocking words and fluency
This small-scale case study explores the impact of Spaced Retrieval Practice (SRP) on vocabulary acquisition and oral fluency in Spanish-speaking A1 EFL adult learners, addressing the need for effective instructional strategies that enhance long-term retention and fluency development. Given the importance of lexical knowledge in oral proficiency, this research aims to determine the extent to which SRP influences Mean Length of Run (MLR), Articula…
The soft power of English
English promotion has become a central feature of Latin American policy agendas over the last two decades, driven less by coercion than by the language's global appeal and strategic utility. Drawing on soft-power theory and policy-diffusion scholarship, this Perspective analyzes how English shapes governance priorities in labor markets, education, diplomacy, and trade. It examines national cases from Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil…
Beyond bilingualism
English language education is expanding across Latin America, yet Indigenous populations continue to face systemic barriers in accessing quality instruction. This perspective examines the structural, cultural, and pedagogical challenges that shape Indigenous students’ experiences and develops four through lines: the inadequacy of one size fits all teaching models that ignore multilingual realities; the fraught relationship between English and cul…
Reshaping research in crisis
Introduction Ecuadorian public universities have significantly expanded their scientific output in recent years; however, few studies have conducted a multivariate bibliometric analysis to assess how these institutions adapted their research agendas during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods This study examines publication patterns from 2019 to 2021 using data from the Web of Science, focusing on four primary research areas: Education, Social Sciences…
Healthcare attitudes toward depression in Latin America
The study reveals varied attitudes towards depression among Latin American healthcare professionals, suggesting the need for tailored public health strategies to enhance effective depression care and management
Association between type of health insurance and dental visits among Ecuadorian older population
Health insurance significantly influences the frequency of dental consultations among Ecuadorian seniors, highlighting the need for policy interventions to ensure equitable access to oral care
Unveiling the core constructs
Introduction: Chatbots are increasingly utilized in education, offering real-time, personalized communication. While research has explored technical aspects of chatbots, user experience remains under-investigated. This study examines a model for evaluating user experience and satisfaction with chatbots in higher education. Methodology: A four-factor model (information quality, system quality, chatbot experience, user satisfaction) was proposed ba…
Randomized community trial to assess nutritional, socioeconomic, and health outcomes of a food forest initiative in Santa Elena Province, Ecuador
Malnutrition is an escalating concern in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs), including Ecuador, particularly within rural settings. To address this issue, food forests emerge as a promising intervention. This research protocol outlines a controlled intervention in the province of Santa Elena, aiming to evaluate the efficacy of a food forest in enhancing nutritional outcomes, with potential implications for broader replication. The study will…
Association between the use of electronic cigarettes and myocardial infarction in U.S. adults
The results suggest that former and someday users of e-cigarettes probably have increased odds of myocardial infarction in adults in the U.S. Further research is needed, including long-term follow-up studies on e-cigarettes, since it is still unknown whether they should be discouraged
