Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Manuel Aburto (asker) Sep 15, 2019:
My apologies for my late reply. In this case I agree with Neilmac, unfortunately Phil is right about the use of "tool".

Hola Toni:

Gracias por la observación en realidad no me había percatado.
En mi humilde opinión, el autor buscó un término "rebuscado" o "rimbombante" para decir "herramientas/actividades educativas".

Again, thanks everybody for your comments and information.

Sorry, Neilmac, too late "Tool" is here to stay, like it or not. I remember Alexei Sayle saying years ago that anyone who used the word "workshop" and wasn't in light engineering was a twat, and look what has happened to that word.
neilmac Sep 13, 2019:
Jargon While not wishing to disparage our colleagues by entering a neutral or disagree vote, I must admit that I am fed up of seeing "tool" used to describe virtually anything in this kind of educational/academic text. Possibly it's to do with my age, but I still think of tools as stuff that you can grasp with your hands and hit someone over the head with (if need be). It seems to have become ubiquitous in the past couple of decades, which is why I prefer pointers/tips or similar for this query.
Toni Castano Sep 13, 2019:
Lo correcto es "artes didácticas" Manuel, colegas. Me sorprende que nadie lo haya mencionado antes, pero "artes didácticos" es un disparate gramatical que no cesa de retumbar en mis oídos. Lo correcto es "artes didácticas", ya que "arte" es un sustantivo de género femenino. Cuando va acompañado del artículo determinado singular, se escribe con "el" (= el arte) para evitar el fenómeno conocido como "cacofonía". Sin embargo, en este caso no hay cacofonía posible. "Artes didácticos" es un error gramatical elemental, grave y ciertamente a evitar.
@Manuel: Si la expresión termina en el glosario, sería conveniente subsanar el error mencionado.
