This article analyzes the impact of technopedagogy and digital tools on the development of gross motor skills in early childhood education. Based on a comparative theoretical framework and a systematic documentary review, it proposes a technopedagogical methodology structured in four phases: exploration, instruction, practice, and reflection. These phases integrate technologies such as virtual reality, wearable devices, and interactive applications. Additionally, the “MoveSmart Kids App” is introduced as a tool offering gamified activities, augmented reality experiences, and real-time feedback to foster personalized motor learning. The study emphasizes the importance of ensuring technological accessibility, teacher digital competence, and data privacy. It concludes that technopedagogical strategies can significantly enhance gross motor skill development when integrated thoughtfully and ethically, proposing future empirical validation and exploration of its application across diverse educational contexts.

摘要

This article analyzes the impact of technopedagogy and digital tools on the development of gross motor skills in early childhood education. Based on a comparative theoretical framework and a systematic documentary review, it proposes a technopedagogical methodology structured in four phases: exploration, instruction, practice, and reflection. These phases integrate technologies such as virtual reality, wearable devices, and interactive applications. Additionally, the “MoveSmart Kids App” is introduced as a tool offering gamified activities, augmented reality experiences, and real-time feedback to foster personalized motor learning. The study emphasizes the importance of ensuring technological accessibility, teacher digital competence, and data privacy. It concludes that technopedagogical strategies can significantly enhance gross motor skill development when integrated thoughtfully and ethically, proposing future empirical validation and exploration of its application across diverse educational contexts.
