Introduction. Anxiety is characterised by feelings of tension, apprehension or fear. It arises from concern about student performance at university, with an emphasis on exact science subjects. It is not only students, who suffer from mathematical anxiety. However, anxiety is a predominant factor in student performance at all levels.The aim of the research was to describe the levels of anxiety also known as distress manifested by university mathematics students studying at the Universidad Nacional de Chimborazo (UNACH) during the 2020-1 academic semester.Methodology and research methods. The current study was carried out applying the quantitative paradigm. It is of a descriptive exploratory design. The total sample consisted of 120 students, who are preparing at their university level, and, who are studying the subject of mathematics at different levels and careers at UNACH. The selection of the sample was of an intentional non-probabilistic type and having as inclusion criteria not having been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. As a measurement instrument, the Short Inventory of Anxiety Situations and Responses-ISRA-B was applied. ISRA-B was sent to students by email to facilitate data collection.Results. The results were analysed by means of the two-factor ANOVA calculation (mathematics and understanding). The results showed that there are statistically significant differences in the understanding of the contents presented by the teachers in a virtual way. During the COVID-19 pandemic the levels of mathematical anxiety increased. Teaching mathematics at university in online format requires the assessment of digital connection and time limited submission of assignments. These factors limit understanding and generate mathematical anxiety. Scientific novelty. In face-to-face education, mathematical anxiety is common. But because of the pandemic, mathematics education has had to migrate to the virtual environment. The present research reflects the impact of anxiety not only on mathematics education and academic performance but also on the emotions of students. The data collection instruments ISRA-B-C, ISRA-B-F and ISRA-B-M are innovative and adaptable to all levels of education.Practical significance. The importance of mathematics and the overestimation of its difficulties cause great concern for the learning of this subject in studies at a higher university level. The current studies of virtual mathematical anxiety are important because they allow the detection and analysis of possible educational failures in online learning. The failures of online education have a direct impact not only on performance and learning, but on an emotional state of students.

“…The experience is a form of knowledge or skill derived from the observation, the experience of an event or coming from things that happen in life that contributes sensibly to the wisdom. In this way, professors perform and strengthen themselves through the andragogic practice, which is consolidated in knowledge that is confirmed, or restructured; it is the product of the experiences that occur in the educational context and academic activities by providing the experience a cumulus of events that strengthens the professional maturity of professors and gradually strengthens their professor training (Mendoza, et al 2018).…”

This research is justified by pointing out the basic conceptions of the continuing education of the university professor. The process of this research included three phases: First, the search; collection and analysis of information. Second, it includes models of professor training and theorization. Third, it raises the final conception of the educational training of the university professor. The research was developed from a qualitative perspective; therefore, it is implanted in an epistemic conceptualization that corresponds to its nature and the interest to deepen in the intuition of the object of study. In this research participated 8 (eight) professors who work at UTE. For the analysis of the data that was obtained they were applied the Grounded Theory and the Constant Comparative Method, which had the purpose of making a theoretical approximation from the categorizations and their dimensions, through the Atlas.ti operating software, version 8. Moreover, the goal was contributing to the theoretical foundation and methodology of the research which generated the following categories: professional professor role and new professor profile. In the conclusions it was mentioned the importance of the university professor updating through scientific research to promote the knowledge and strategies that demand the need to theorize, produce and raise the level of professor thinking.

This research aims to analyze the levels of CO2, O3 and VOC and their relationship with educational quality in engineering students at the National University of Chimborazo UNACH during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study had a quantitative, exploratory analysis design. The study had a quantitative, exploratory analysis design. Four environmental meteorological monitoring stations were used for data collection, to obtain contamination levels of VOC particles, temperature, winds, and precipitation. A questionnaire was also applied to 150 students of the UNACH, to determine the level of educational quality during the educational semester of COVID-19. The results were analyzed in a descriptive and comparative way with different sources and authors. Among the results it can be concluded that there was an almost total absence of chemical emissions by industries and vehicles in the city of Riobamba-Ecuador from March 2020 to July 2020. The covid-19 in no way has a positive side for the environment, nor for university education. The quality of education has been diminished by the lack of virtual academic training and lack of digital resources for students to receive educational training at a distance.
