Social innovation, which is very fashionable these days, is a concept that requires a more exact approach, even more so when it is explored in economic and social terms and its definition is of interest to governments. Innovation in higher education institutions is a component that in some corresponds to a subject and in others it is part of a subject. It has been identified through the scientific reading of other authors, about its importance around the development of social innovation, in addition to using a data collection technique that has been implemented with 300 students from different higher education institutions in the city of Guayaquil. The results of these surveys have made it possible to identify through descriptive research the student problems facing social innovation in their institutions, in addition to new scenarios, after the most difficult days of Covid-19.
The English language is one of the languages with the greatest impact, its learning in this globalized world is imperative. The unknown that is marked in this region and much more in Ecuador, is why the learning of the English language is not improved. Knowing the linguistic development of this language is important, even when they are small specific groups, much more so in the context of higher education. The present work has carried out a descriptive methodology with 150 students from a higher institution to analyze their development in the face of linguistic competences and how this has been shown to students within the framework of the Covid-19 pandemic. The selected students study the same level of English and their ages range from 18 to 25 years. Finally, the work shows through that there are important skills that teachers have promoted through this new educational scenario such as virtuality.
