Psicomotricidad y competencias curriculares en un caso con inteligencia limítrofe.

Abstract

Borderline intelligence is defined as intellectual functioning that is not within normal cognitive standards, but is not considered an intellectual disability. This type of intelligence is identified by its main characteristic based on presenting an IQ between 70 – 85%. Therefore, the following is proposed as a scientific problem: What is the relationship between psychomotor skills and curricular competencies in a student with borderline intelligence? , in order to answer the question raised, the objective is: to analyze the relationship of psychomotricity with curricular competences in a student with borderline intelligence. Regarding the methodology, a descriptive type of research based on a qualitative approach was presented. At the same time, a theoretical foundation was maintained from an ecological approach, allowing us to understand the development processes of the human being. In addition, for the collection of information, some evaluation instruments were used, correlated with the present case study, these being: the Wisc V test, the Ozeretsky test, an observation guide was also applied and finally an interview guide. . It was obtained as a result that the minor presents affectations in his learning, being in a lower level of schooling according to what was evaluated, because these are not consistent with his age and grade in which he is. Others have deficiencies in their motor skills and difficulties in their curricular competencies, which trigger a deficit in personal development and their learning process.
