Abstract

The programming of teaching-oriented systems plays a more important role every day. This is how, at present, the demand for applications is increasing due to the progressive increase in the number of students. For this reason, today, it is necessary for any education center to find different ways to optimize and improve the way of teaching and generate knowledge in students. This monograph is intended to meet the need to bring people with cognitive disabilities closer to knowledge and technology, through the design of an application supported on mobile devices; specifically, it is aimed at people with moderate mental disorders such as Moderate Cognitive Disability. The population under study are 32 children who are housed in the "La Paz de Chapinero" Social Integration Center in the Juan XXIII neighborhood of the city of Bogotá. This Project was developed in six phases: In the first, the population under study was identified, it was specified that the teachers of the Crecer la Paz Center need alternative ways to reinforce the learning of the alphabet and in the same way bring their students closer to devices mobile. For this reason, the guiding question of this research was formulated as follows: What application and what mobile device do teachers require to reinforce the learning of the alphabet in people with moderate cognitive disabilities, at the Crecer la Paz Center? In the second phase, it was determined that the application should be oriented to a teaching method of the Alphabet, according to the guidelines of the Ministry of National Education. In the third phase, the scope of the application was designed, based on teaching criteria given by the Center's teachers; As the compiler, Android Studio is chosen and its programming language is Java. In the fourth phase, the letters that make up the alphabet were identified.
