Abstract

The development of the present didactic unit focuses on the understanding of the origin and development of the first settlers of Ecuador, with the main objective of identifying the essential aspects in the territorial division, valuing the formation of social groups and distribution of the cities, which establishes a key precedent for the characterization of the ways of life adopted by the first inhabitants in the Ecuadorian territory and their evolution according to the stages of life. In the teaching methodology skills were developed that favored the understanding, interpretation and narration of historical events concerning the existence of humanity. During the description of the living conditions of the first settlers, connection was established with human evolution up to the present, which led to a dynamic interaction in the collaborative groups. In conclusion, the proposed activities were developed from the conception of constructivist and meaningful learning.
