Our tour operator, named Ancestral Tour, is focused on providing cultural and educational experiences through guided tours of various archaeological sites located throughout our national territory of El Salvador, such as: Tazumal, Joya de Cerén, San Andrés, Cihuatán, Casa Blanca, and Ciudad Vieja. The tour packages we offer are aimed at both national and international tourists, as well as educational institutions interested in learning about the customs, traditions, beliefs, and practices of our indigenous peoples. These elements must always be passed down through generations to preserve our cultural heritage and to value the contributions and legacy of our ancestors, thereby keeping El Salvador’s identity alive. Our tourism proposal is archaeological and cultural in nature. Through meaningful activities, quality service, sustainable development, and historical and cultural contexts, we aim to promote the cultural heritage of our country. In addition, this project seeks to increase tourism in these areas of the Salvadoran national territory and is designed for people of all ages—domestic and international tourists, students, and history enthusiasts who wish to enrich their cultural and historical understanding. Ancestral Tour offers flexible payment options, comfortable transportation, qualified guides, and convenient schedules. Our tourist destinations are accessible, with excellent locations and natural surroundings ideal for conducting educational and exploratory activities at the different archaeological settlements. This type of tourism is not only archaeological and cultural but also eco-touristic, historical, and religious, allowing visitors to study these protected areas. The implementation of these tours ensures sustainable tourism through good practices and responsible visits to the main archaeological sites and nearby communities. It also provides support to local guides, artisans, and small businesses that are included in the development of these tourist activities. Finally, in this section we outline various strategies to: Protect the historical cultural legacy of archaeological sites, promote local and cultural identity, maintain responsible use of resources, and foster economic inclusion to preserve and respect our cultural heritage.

This project addresses the critical issue of accessibility and inclusivity within the tourism sector in El Salvador, particularly for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community. The study’s primary objective was to develop a comprehensive and viable business profile for Echo Journeys, a specialized tour operator to offer accessible hiking and cultural experiences in natural reserves in El Salvador. The research employs a descriptive and conceptual design approach, leveraging a theoretical framework on sustainable tourism service quality, and empirical evidence collected during field trips. The analysis successfully established a detailed product profile, defined core operational elements, and created a strategic blueprint for the company’s launch and growth, detailing its market niche, mission, and unique value proposition on sign language communication. The central conclusion is that the proposed inclusive operating model is structurally sound, economically viable, and represents a significant, sustainable competitive advantage that directly supports social equity goals within the Salvadoran tourism industry

(Universidad de El Salvador, Facultad de Ciencias y Humanidades., 2025-10-29) Menjívar Azcúnaga, Katherine Stefany; Pérez Nieto, Katya Aracely; Najarro de Alvarado, Sey Danisia; ma19111@ues.edu.sv; pn20006@ues.edu.sv
This study explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools into English language teaching within virtual learning environments. Drawing on knowledge acquired in a specialization course, it examines how AI supports teachers in lesson planning, delivery, assessment, and student engagement. The theoretical framework highlights both the pedagogical benefits, such as personalization of instruction, workload reduction, and support for differentiated learning, and the main challenges, including ethical concerns, overreliance on technology, and teacher preparedness. Findings emphasize that AI should not be viewed as a replacement for educators but rather as a complementary resource that enhances teaching efficiency and enriches student learning experiences. Ultimately, the study underscores the importance of teacher AI collaboration, positioning educators as facilitators of critical thinking, creativity, and socioemotional development while leveraging AI as a pedagogical assistant in digital contexts.
