Children’s learning based on the colors in the fruit’s inquiry in the techno-emotional cooking: Case study of emotions delimitation

The senses play a fundamental role in learning as they are related to emotions, since they allow stimulating the mind through perceptions because, by observing, smelling, tasting, and touching, they incite curiosity in benefit of the recognition of figures, textures, shapes, and colors, in addition to initiating the development of personal self-knowledge. The use of ICT in research is important since, through the development of a facial recognition application, it was possible to identify the learning that can be stimulated through the colors in fruits. The objective of this research is to investigate the perception of the colors of fruits and emotions in the learning of children in the first year of elementary school; based on the application of techno-emotional cuisine through facial recognition of emotions. The design was correlational-causal, because when presented with creative dishes made from fruit and with the help of the instruments, the emotion of the child was known when observing the food and in the same way the taste and dislike to eat, touch, smell and observe these foods. The scope of this research is to correlate, to explain the existing relationship between the two variables of study, that is, perceived the colors of the fruits of the creative dishes. To develop the hypothetical analysis with the instrument used and the population, the same that allowed to check the decision making with the alternate hypothesis, it is checked in a nonparametric way according to the statistics of Binomial Test of independent samples.
