DEVELOPMENT OF LITERACY SKILLS THROUGH INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES AND TRADITIONAL ORAL GAMES
Keywords:
literacy skills, ICT, oral tradition games, ethno-education, communication skillsAbstract
Reading and writing are fundamental epistemic competencies for cognitive development and social participation, with particular relevance in ethno-educational institutions. Objective: To analyze the usefulness of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and oral tradition games as complementary tools for developing literacy competencies, drawing on the theoretical frameworks of Derksen et al. (2022), Bikner et al. (2023), and other contemporary scholars. Methodology: Critical and systematic review of theoretical foundations and literature from the past five years. Results: The pedagogical integration of ICT provides multimodal resources—interactive concept maps, gamified platforms, and asynchronous forums—that foster critical reflection, creative writing, and collaboration, while oral tradition games anchor these learnings in students' cultural identity, enhancing intrinsic motivation and group cohesion. Conclusion: The synergistic articulation between ICT and traditional games transforms reading and writing into meaningful sociocultural practices that are more accessible, interactive, and contextually relevant for ethno-educational communities.
