Libro didáctico interactivo en el área de matemáticas para estudiantes de cuarto de básica de la Unidad Educativa Particular Iberoamericano
(Instituto Superior Tecnológico Particular Sudamericano, 2026) Alvear Ulloa Gabriela Abigail; Chuquimarca Torres Rosario Abigail
This thesis addresses the difficulties faced by fourth-grade students in the general basic education program at the Unidad Educativa Particular Integración Iberoamericano in
mathematics, particularly in multiplication, division, and logical reasoning. Given this issue, the overall objective was to design an interactive educational book for mathematics that integrates movable elements and interactive digital resources, aimed at children aged 8–9. The project was developed using the Design Thinking methodology, progressing through the phases of empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. As part of the Empathize phase, a survey of students, interviews with teachers, and a focus group with specialists in audiovisual design, child psychology, were conducted, which made it possible to identify pedagogical needs and define the project’s visual identity: three characters based on Ecuadorian wildlife (sea lion, jaguar, and spectacled bear), a pastel color palette, and a kawaii-style visual design for the characters. Based on this information, a 38-page book—including the front and back covers—was laid out and illustrated in a 21 x 21 cm format with a hardcover binding and laminated pages, incorporating interactive elements (spinners, a magic lantern, and flaps). Digital mini-games linked via QR codes were also developed as audiovisual reinforcement resources.

Desarrollo de identidad corporativa, producción audiovisual y estrategias de comunicación aplicadas al reconocimiento de la marca Arkidesc
(Instituto Superior Tecnológico Particular Sudamericano, 2026) Álvarez Armijos Xavier Santiago; Morocho Saquituna Kevin Alexander
The project titled “Development of corporate identity, audiovisual production, and communication strategies applied to Arkidesc brand recognition” aims to strengthen the recognition and positioning of the architecture firm through the development of a robust corporate identity, the creation of audiovisual content, and the use of integrated communication tools.The proposal stems from the need to establish a brand image that conveys the company’s values, quality, and professionalism, while enhancing its digital presence and strengthening relationships with its target audience.This project proposes a communication ecosystem that integrates visual identity design, a corporate portfolio, social media strategies, and audiovisual production, helping to increase Arkidesc’s visibility, differentiation, and competitiveness in the city of Cuenca, Ecuador.

Narrativa audiovisual mediante la ilustración, animación y video como aporte a la revalorización de los oficios artesanales de la ciudad de Cuenca
(Instituto Superior Tecnológico Particular Sudamericano, 2026) Juan Santiago Mora Cuesta
The project, entitled “Audiovisual Narrative through Illustration, Animation, and Video as a Contribution to the Revaluation of the Artisanal Trades of the City of Cuenca,” takes the form of a four-part documentary miniseries. The project focuses on audiovisual recording and applied graphics. It is a narrative that documents the technical and creative process of Cuenca's artisans, as well as their ability to adapt to modernization processes. The project uses a contemplative narrative to portray the stages of craft production, integrating traditional animation as a key visual component to emphasize the details of manual manufacturing.

Creación de marca, material de apoyo y prototipado 3D aplicado al emprendimiento agrícola ‘Hoverfrut’ en el cantón Santa Isabel
(Instituto Superior Tecnológico Particular Sudamericano, 2026) Héctor Alexander Zumba Chimbo
This graduation project focuses on brand creation, the development of support materials, and 3D prototyping applied to an agricultural venture located in the Santa Isabel canton. The research is based on the analysis of productive and communication challenges identified within the local agricultural context, particularly the absence of a structured visual identity, limited market differentiation, and the lack of support resources to strengthen the technical understanding of the production system. The main objective was to design a coherent graphic ecosystem capable of reinforcing the project’s identity, improving its positioning through updated packaging, supporting production through the implementation of a hydroponic tower developed with 3D prototypes, and facilitating the transfer of technical information through visual resources and support tools. Rather than applying Design Thinking as a fixed sequence of stages, it was approached as an adaptive and flexible process aligned with the real dynamics of the venture. Throughout the development, decisions were progressively adjusted according to practical conditions and contextual coherence within the territory where the project was implemented.

Desarrollo de una aplicación móvil basada en comunicación aumentativa y alternativa para personas con síndrome de Down del centro acción social municipal de Cuenca
(Instituto Superior Tecnológico Particular Sudamericano, 2026) Joseph Dario Quito Jaramillo
The Municipal Social Action Center of Cuenca (CASMC) administers the PLS-5 instrument manually, without a system that allows recording, comparing, or systematically tracking the communicative development of its patients with Down syndrome. Given this situation, the project's purpose was to develop the first beta of a mobile application that digitizes the administration of the PLS-5 and integrates a module of communicative stimulation activities based on Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). A diagnosis was carried out through a semi-structured interview with the center's speech-language pathologist and a documentary review of the PLS-5 administration and scoring manual, which allowed the application's requirements to be identified. Development was carried out under the agile Scrum methodology, using Flutter and Supabase, organized into two sprints that covered patient management, therapist access, PLS-5 evaluation with automatic score calculation, and AAC stimulation activities. The diagnosis revealed accessibility needs, developmental age ranges, and the center's technological infrastructure, which guided the design of the proposal. As a result, a functional beta was obtained that digitizes the evaluation, stimulation, and follow-up cycle, validated through a usability questionnaire applied to the therapists. The findings confirm that the proposal is technically, operationally, and economically viable, and constitutes a concrete contribution given that no such integrated tool for this population currently exists within the country.
