Abstract

Educational innovation is an essential tool for transforming teaching and learning processes in basic education. This article presents innovative proposals that promote active student participation, the use of technology, inclusion through Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and active methodologies such as project-based learning and gamification. Through documentary review and practical experiences, it is shown how these strategies enhance academic performance, motivation, and educational equity.
