- User´s digital competences as perveived In a MOOC Course and it´s relation to the use of OER. A posible path to teach energy sustainability(2016) Mena Marcos, Juan J.; Ramírez Montoya, María S.; Rodríguez Arroyo, José A.; Tecnologico de MonterreyThis study is part of a research project entitled: “Comparative study on the development of digital competence under MiCompu.mx program” that was financed by the Mexican fund SEP-SEB CONACYT 2013. The main purpose is to confirm whether in-service teachers’ self-perception on Digital Competence (DC) may influence the use of Open Educational Resources (OER) in their classrooms. A group of n=863 in-service teachers from elementary, high education and tertiary education from various disciplines participated in a massive open online course (MOOC) training course on Digital Competences. A 26-item validated questionnaire on DC and use of OER was delivered to the participants of the MOOC course. Additionally, participant interviews and course facilitator’s weekly reports were also collected. Mixed methods research was used in this study, presenting in his article a correlational analysis of DC and OER and the results of the interviews conducted to teachers and principals. Scores in DC and OER were ordered into three levels of performance: High, intermediate and low. Main results indicate that in-service teachers that perceive themselves as digital experts can reach an intermediate level in the use of OER. The main implication out of it is that teacher training programs in DC are required to prepare teachers for the use of OER in class on a daily basis. This model will be double tested in a national wide Project funded by the Secretary of Energy in Mexico: “Binational Laboratory for the smart management of energy sustainability and technological training” (2016-2019).
- Developing digital skills to solve information problems through a MOOC(2015) Rodríguez Arroyo, José A.; Ramírez Montoya, María S.; Tecnologico de MonterreyThe study reported here is part of a macro study, which seeks to identify digital competences developed by students and teachers participating in the program MiCompu.Mx in the states of Tabasco, Colima and Sonora in Mexico. This paper presents the experience of a currently ongoing implementation of a Massive Online Open Course (MOOC) addressed to teachers and principals that aims to develop digital skills to solve information problems. The objective of the study is to identify the impact of MOOC in developing the following digital skills: search and select information, organize and process information, to communicate what they have learned and projects planning. For this part of the project a pre-questionnaire and post-questionnaire was implemented to measure the digital skills before and after the MOOC. Results show how the MOOC has beneficiated the participants in the development of the digital skills to solve information problems. Both horizontally (within the same skill) and vertically (from the basic to the more complex skill), each one of the skills had a significant change in the perception of the participants of their level of competency in each one of the skills studied.
