- Citizen science as a relevant approach to the challenges of complex thinking development in higher education: mapping and bibliometric analysis(Springer Nature, 2024) Alfaro Ponce, Berenice; Durán González, Rosa Elena; Morales Maure, Luisa; Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; Tecnologico de Monterrey; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/031f8kt38; https://ror.org/0070j0q91Educational strategies have undergone significant transformations in an era marked by rapid globalization, advancements in communication technologies, and challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic. Amid these changes, Citizen Science (CS) has gained prominence as an innovative educational approach, particularly in fostering complex thinking skills necessary to navigate contemporary global trends. This study aims to fill the knowledge gap regarding the effectiveness of CS projects in developing complex thinking competencies within higher education. Through a bibliometric analysis of 28 Scopus-indexed articles from 2000 to 2022, this research maps the landscape of CS as an educational strategy and evaluates its alignment with complex thinking development. The analysis indicates a strong link between CS projects and the enhancement of complex thinking and its sub-competencies. It demonstrates that CS initiatives have successfully achieved their educational objectives, substantially enriching the learning experience. Furthermore, the research highlights a growing trend in applying CS for educational purposes. These findings suggest that CS can be a valuable component of higher education curricula, offering a practical method for developing critical competencies in students. The study underscores the potential of CS to contribute meaningfully to the evolution of pedagogical practices and provides a foundation for future research to build upon, particularly in the context of higher education’s response to global educational demands.
- Education in Mexico and technological public policy for developing complex thinking in the digital era:A model for technology management(Elsevier, 2023-09-21) Alfaro Ponce, Berenice; Alfaro Ponce, Mariel; Muñoz Ibáñez, Christopher Antonio; Durán González, Rosa Elena; Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; González Gomez, Zaira Lizbeth; Tecnologico de Monterrey; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/031f8kt38Currently, numerous studies highlight the importance of technology as an effective resource for improving the quality of education. Like other countries in the region, Mexico greatly emphasizes improving its education system comprehensively and competitively, and technology has become a fundamental strategy to achieve this goal. Technology has allowed it to fill existing gaps and introduce innovative models in the digital age, promoting human capital development and fostering thriving communities. Technology also facilitates the development of competencies, such as complex thinking and the skills required to utilize Education 4.0 resources. However, these advances are at risk without examining the possibilities for technology transfer in the region's educational institutions. Accordingly, the following questions arise: a) What is the probability of achieving technology transfer to primary education institutions; b) What investments or modifications are necessary in the existing infrastructure to transfer educational and other technologies? We aimed to develop a quantitative data analysis model to examine the capacity of primary education institutions, applicable also to higher education, to adapt, assimilate, and transfer technology to improve educational quality in Mexico, as proposed by González Sabater in 2011. The results suggest the feasibility of a technology management system validated through a reliable database, considering the existing infrastructure as a basis for technology transfer. This research is relevant in establishing the probability of success of an educational institution in completing the process of assimilation and technology transfer, thus also contributing to governmental decision-making on educational spending.
