Abstract: This article aims to analyze the impact of cultural identity on the training of students in the seventh cycle of Intercultural Bilingual Education at a Distance from UNAE at the Support Center of Macas - Morona Santiago. A socio-critical paradigm focuses on the study of reality; the type of research is descriptive. It is supported by the action research method. The techniques used were: the survey, the observation, and as instruments: the questionnaire, and the checklist. As a research question was raised: How does acculturation affect the cultural identity of seventh-cycle students? The results evidenced the lack of use of the mother tongue, the environment's resources, the dialogue of ancestral knowledge, and thus the loss of cultural identity. It was concluded that there are acculturation processes in the training of students and that they harm the appreciation of culture. Therefore, the commitment and support of all educational actors are required to construct a society concerning cultural identities.
