Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) should have data measuring technological maturity and readiness for cyber-physical environments, crucial to leading digital transformation and sustainable development. This study presents the validation of an instrument designed to assess academicians’ perceptions of the technological maturity and digital transformation readiness of HEIs. The scale dimensions were constructed and vali- dated in three steps: (1) operationalization of the study variables and scale development, (2) content validation through a nine-expert judgment panel with Aiken’s V, and (3) factor exploratory analysis (EFA) and reliability analysis using Cronbach’s Alpha method. The validation yielded three main findings: Aiken’s V coefficient yielded a value of (>0.82), indicating substantial agreement for the content evaluation of nine experts; reliability test- ing produced a Cronbach’s alpha of .957, demonstrating excellent internal consistency. The Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) measure was .919, confirming the questionnaire’s suitability for 19 items. Four critical dimensions were established: (1) Cyber-Physical Systems, (2) Educational platforms and data and analytics, (3) Organizational platforms, and (4) Conti- nuity and security plans. These results validate the instrument as a robust tool for diagnos- ing digital maturity in university contexts, effectively capturing the proposed dimensions essential for educational innovation. The future work to evolve this instrument could shed light on the roadmap for incorporating technological enablers, aligning vocational training with the challenges of Industry 4.0, and supported by predictive AI models that allow the creation of solid governance to lead the digital evolution.
- A look at sustainability through the lens of the sustainable development goals and education 5.0: A systematic review of the literature(Journal of Social Studies Education Research, 2025-03-31) Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Tariq, Rasikh; Rozo García, Hugo Alexander; Casillas Muñoz, Fidel; Tarman, BulentWe discuss a new construct called Industry 5.0, which has infiltrated the education sector, enabling us to explore Education 5.0. This concept is based on the use of advanced technologies that enable it to address global issues in contemporary society, many of which are related to sustainability. In line with the above, the aim of this research was to reveal the possible advances that have been made in Education 5.0 and its relationship with Sustainable Development Goals, especially sustainability, to achieve this, a systematic literature review was carried out, analyzing 92 articles from the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases. The analysis was carried out through research questions that allowed the documentary corpus to be explored, organized, and segmented in order to focus on three elements How sustainability has been approached by Education 5.0, the possible challenges it faces in working toward sustainability in the immediate future, and finally, a characterization of the publications. The results take into account that: a) the management of education and its relationship with industry 5.0 seems to be the favorite topic when SDGs are addressed; b) the impact on sustainability for 5.0 technologies is diverse, ranging from facilitating intelligent resource management to refining teaching methods, raising awareness of sustainability, improving collaboration and promoting virtuality; c) SDGs is the topic less addressed in the literature in the margin of Education 5. 0; d) Most of the authors agreed that the main challenge is the widespread adoption of technologies in Education 5.0. The review concludes that the emergence of Education 5.0 introduces technological advances accentuated by a human-centered vision. However, it is urgent that institutions adopt an inquisitiveness about quality education, the achievement of SDGs, and the sustainability of education to amplify sustainable key competencies, such as creativity and human-centered thinking.
- Utilization of locally sourced waste fats for biodiesel production: Experimental characterization and environmental life cycle assessment(Elsevier, 2025-02-08) Muhammad Aqil, Khan; Nadeem Ahmed, Sheikh; Khan Zaib, Jadoon; Abubakr, Ayub; Tabbi, Wilberforce Awotwe; Rasikh, Tariq; Manuel Garcia PerezThis study presents the production, chemical characterization, and life cycle assessment (LCA) of biodiesel derived from various local waste feedstocks using experimental setup. Biodiesel was produced via transesterification in a 50-L batch reactor using oils sourced from a five-star restaurant (A), three-star café (B), rancid palm oil (C), and chicken feather oil (D). Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was used for identification of functional groups, while gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyzed fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) composition, revealing key variations such as Hexadecanoic acid (C16:0) and Octadecenoic acid (C18:1). Type A biodiesel exhibited the highest saturation, while Types B and C contained more unsaturated FAMEs, influencing their heating values. Conversion efficiencies were significantly influenced by the acid values of the feedstocks, with a maximum yield of 85 % achieved for a sample with an acid value of 3.5 mgKOH/g and a heating value of 35.8 MJ/kg. LCA performed using Simapro V9.5.0.2 demonstrated that biodiesels from Types A, B, C, and D reduced carbon footprints by 70 %, 64 %, 63 %, and 65 %, respectively, compared to fossil diesel. Feedstocks with lower free fatty acid (FFA) levels resulted in lower environmental impacts, while extensively reused cooking oils with higher FFA values contributed to increased carbon footprints. This study underscores the potential for scalable biodiesel production from waste resources, aligning with global and regional sustainability goals.
