Los recursos tecnológicos en el desarrollo motriz de los niños de 3 a 4 años de la Unidad Educativa José María Román.

The present research analyzes technological resources' impact on the motor development of children aged 3 to 4 years at the José María Román Educational Unit. Through a quantitative approach and a non-experimental design, we evaluated how using technological tools influences the development of fine and gross motor skills in children. This analysis is crucial since motor development is a fundamental part of physical and cognitive growth in the early stages of life. The results show that 63% of those surveyed perceive a significant impact of technology on children's motor development, especially in areas such as coordination and balance. However, 22% consider the benefits not evident, highlighting the need for more structured and supervised use. The research highlights the importance of integrating technological tools in a balanced way with traditional physical activities to optimize the comprehensive development of children. In addition, the need to train teachers and raise awareness among parents about the appropriate use of these resources is highlighted. The rapid advance of technology has transformed educational methodologies, and its inclusion in the early stages of education is essential to take advantage of its potential in children's motor development. This study, by focusing on children aged 3 to 4 years, reflects the relevance of adapting technological tools to the specific needs of infants in a critical phase of learning and training motor skills. The appropriate use of technology can facilitate coordination, agility, and balance, complementing traditional physical activities that remain essential in early childhood education. Throughout the analysis, it became clear that it is necessary to introduce technology in the classroom and establish a balance between physical activity and the use of these resources. The research highlights the importance of teacher supervision and family support to ensure that the impact is positive and sustained. In this way, the proposal aims to improve motor development and generate a more comprehensive educational approach that promotes both technological, physical, and cognitive skills from an early age, preparing children for the challenges of an environment. It is increasingly digitalized.
