Learning System for the Empowerment of High School Girls Students

Abstract

Currently, in the world there is a gender gap between men and women, this is manifested in gender-based violence and social injustice. An alternative to reduce this gap is the empowerment of women and girls through learning content that gives them leadership and independence, knowing their rights, and preventing acts of violence. There are few technological tools that support female empowerment, these are generally aimed at adult women. This study proposes an IT model for the empowerment of girls in high school education, and an EmpowerMe system, which implements the proposed model, using Moodle, digital library, chatbot, webinar and a game-based learning platform. EmpowerMe was validated through a case study and expert judgment. The results show that there was a learning improvement of 4 points. In addition, the usability, content, follow-up and satisfaction survey show an average rating of 4.4 out of 5.
