Mentoring in educational innovation:systematization in the experience of teachers’ educational experimentation and research
(2023-05-04) Portuguez Castro, May Iliana; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; García Peñalvo, Francisco
This paper aims to analyze the mentoring process carried out during the development of 70 educational innovation projects from Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico, financed by the Novus fund. This fund grants financial resources to professors of the institution to perform educational innovation and research projects. The projects analyzed included 243 collaborators impacting 247 courses and 5824 students. For this analysis, the author systematized the experience using instruments to record and follow up on the activities, identifying the primary needs of the participants in the process and the essential elements of mentoring. The results showed that the main requirements for mentees were the definition of the experimental procedure, review of experimentation progress, the presentation of evidence, and scientific writing at the end of the project. The essential elements for mentees were agreeing on times with the mentor and having someone knowledgeable in educational research and their accompaniment. The participants considered the mentoring process positive because they received support on methodologies, writing, and research in educational innovation and had follow-up and good communication. The results of this study can be helpful for universities, innovation managers, and teachers, where a mentor can accompany professors to become more involved in educational innovation and research.
Mind Maps for Clinical Case Presentation: The Case of Nutrition Faculty and Students
(IEEE, 2023-04-21) Díaz Méndez, Rosa Elvia; Ramírez Vega, Dixia Patricia; Gallardo Córdova, Katherina Edith; Tecnologico de Monterrey
The present study explores the integration of mind mapping into solving and presenting clinical nutrition cases. Seventeen undergraduate nutrition students and 9 professors participated in the study. Within a mixed-method framework, we used a Pearson coefficient correlation to determine if there is any association between mind map scores and academic performance. Furthermore, participants' perceptions were thematically analyzed to determine how mind mapping influenced students' thinking processes and communication skills. According to faculty and students, mind mapping helped students to better organize, comprehend, and analyze information related to their cases, develop nutritional interventions, and communicate effectively with their audiences. Other benefits and suggestions for implementing these kinds of activities are discussed.
Tailor-Made Nutrition Education for University Students through Data Science
(IEEE, 2023-04-21) Gallardo, Katherina; Aguilar González, Jesús; G. Ceballos, Hector; Díaz Méndez, Rosa Elvia; Mejía Almada, Paola Gabriela; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey
This paper presents a study of daily food intake records with the help of educational technology. The aim was to analyze higher education students' patterns of eating. The study took place in a private university in northern Mexico. Two phases were defined for this study. The first was to analyze a daily record of food consumption by 1,068 students. The second corresponded to a virtual reality supermarket where 3,189 students' activities were registered from 2020 to 2022. Their food purchase decisions were studied based on each product's nutritional information. Statistically significant differences were found in their eating habits in the variables of age, gender, and physical activity. The intake of sodium, sugar, saturated fats, and other fats consumption was also analyzed. This information is considered helpful for designing auxiliary educational material to promote well-being and food habit strategies for undergraduate students.
Design of a novel high school mathematics class through the usability analysis of a robot implementation
(Springer, 2022-10-01) Baltazar Reyes, Germán Eduardo; Jiménez, Brenda; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Tlalpan, Patricia; Ponce Cruz, Pedro; Institute for the Future of Education, Tecnologico de Monterrey; https://ror.org/03ayjn504
This paper proposes implementing a robotic platform to improve students’ attention levels in high school math classes. This proposal found that the math class topics taught with the support of a robotic platform were more attractive and dynamic than a traditional class model with only the professor's guidance. The primary goal was to transform a conventional class into an experimental one to improve the students’ grades
