- Generative artificial intelligence in education: a systematic analysis of opportunities, challenges, and responses(Taylor & Francis, 2025-08-04) García López, Iván Miguel; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Molina Espinosa, José Martín; Tecnológico de MonterreyGenerative artificial intelligence (GenAI), exemplified by tools such as ChatGPT, is transforming the educational field by offering innovative solutions for the personalization of learning, student motivation, and the optimization of pedagogical processes. The core research question is: How is GenAI transforming educational processes, and what are the challenges and opportunities associated with its implementation? To answer it, a systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted, analyzing recent studies that address applications, policies, and limitations of AI in education. The main findings highlight three key constructs: personalization of learning, which improves academic performance through adaptive interventions; educational innovation, which boosts motivation through interactive and gamified environments; and the need for ethical and inclusive regulation, which guarantees transparency and equity in the use of these technologies. In addition, gaps were identified in institutional policies and existing legal regulation, evidencing the urgency of updating them to respond to emerging challenges. The added value of this study lies in its holistic and comprehensive approach, which connects pedagogical applications, ethical challenges, and regulatory policies, proposing concrete recommendations for the responsible and effective implementation of AI in educational contexts.
- Data analytics and artificial neural network framework to profile academic success: case study(Taylor & Francis, 2024-12-01) Quintero Gámez, Lorena; Tariq, Rasikh; Sánchez Escobedo, Pedro; Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge CarlosAcademic success in higher education has attracted interest from the scientific community because of its implications for personal development and societal progress. Programmes such as Tecnologico de Monterrey’s Leaders of Tomorrow aim to nurture students’ potential and promote academic success. This study examines the attributes from participating students associated with academic success. The focus is on personality and socio-demographic factors that influence academic excellence. The research contribution of this work is data analysis supported by artificial neural networks to establish the relationship between personality tests and background information with academic performance. The findings were: (a) high school GPA predicts university success; (b) first-generation degree status is associated with higher GPA; (c) gender differences in academic performance vary by context; and (d) personality profiles are not associated with academic performance. The role of socio-demographic and personality factors in predicting the academic success of prospective students is discussed.
- Soft skills centrality in graduate studies offerings(Taylor & Francis, 2023-09-29) García Chitiva, Maria del Pilar; Correa Nuñez, Juan Carlos; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; Marini, GiulioIs it possible to measure how critical soft skills like leadership or teamwork are from the viewpoint of graduate studies offerings? This paper provides a conceptual and methodological framework that introduces the concept of a bipartite network as a practical way to estimate the importance of soft skills as socio-emotional abilities trained in graduate studies. We examined 230 graduate programs offered by 49 higher education institutions in Colombia to estimate the empirical importance of soft skills from the viewpoint of graduate studies offerings. The results show that: (a) graduate programs in Colombia share 31 soft skills in their intended learning outcomes; (b) the centrality of these skills varies as a function of the graduate pro- gram, although this variation was not statistically significant; and (c) while most central soft skills tend to be those related to creativity (i.e. creation or generation of ideas or projects), leadership (to lead or teamwork), and analytical orientation (e.g. evaluating situations and solving problems), less central were those related to empathy (i.e. understanding others and acknowledgment of others), ethical thinking, and critical thinking, posing the question if too much emphasis on most visible skills might imply an unbalance in the opportunities to enhancing other soft skills such as ethical thinking.
- Energy literacy in elementary school textbooks in Mexico(Taylor & Francis, 2022-10-22) Castañeda Garza, Gerardo; Valerio Ureña, Gabriel; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Recognizing the relevance of energy in our lives is essential for ensuring a sustainable future. The lessons offered by education systems could exert an impact throughout the lives of people. This study conducts a review of the content of elementary-level textbooks in Mexico to describe and analyze the scope of these materials and their depth from the perspective of energy literacy. Analysis considers the content of 44 textbooks published in 2014, and identifies 33 topics categorized based on the framework of energy literacy proposed by DeWaters (Citation2011). The results show that energy-related issues were introduced to students earlier than expected by the government educational authority, energy-related contents were more extensive than expected across the textbooks, and offered a rich interdisciplinary perspective previously unrecognized by national educational guidelines. These findings suggest the need to update educational guidelines in Mexico to acknowledge the contents identified in this research, to support them with materials related to SDGs, and to understand better which energy education topics are being covered for future generations in other countries.
- Reproductive work as a limitation for working women in Monterrey, Mexico(Taylor & Francis, 2022-07-27) Garnica Monroy, Ruben; Hernández Reyes, Malinalli; Tecnologico de Monterrey, Escuela de Arquitectura, Arte y Diseño; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Monterrey Metropolitan Zone (Mexico) is characterised by industrial activity and its proximity to the border with the US. In 2010, its 13 municipalities provided infrastructure and services that allow people to live, work or rest, but also a specific function (housing, work, or leisure) due to the prevalence of one of these, impacting the daily life of the population by gender. This article explores the relationship between travel distance to work and reproductive work for working women. Using data by the Extended Questionnaire of the Census Sample of the 2010 Population and Housing Census, home-work commuting routes were mapped at the municipal level, combined with four variables of reproductive work. Our study demonstrates that as the reproductive work increases for working women, they experience spatial segregation since they cannot travel as far as the ones with lower reproductive work because they are expected to take care of the reproductive work.
- Psychometric assessment of a tool to evaluate motivation and knowledge of an energy-related topic MOOC(Taylor & Francis, 2022-01-31) Valdivia Vázquez, Juan Antonio; Valenzuela González, Jaime Ricardo; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de MonterreyOnline education has increased over the last two decades in response to an increasing learning demand. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) seem to be an adequate tool to facilitate current educational dynamics. However, evaluating students’ motivation and learning to predict their engagement when attending a MOOC represents a challenge. This study combines characteristics of data from MOOC environments (e.g., large sample size) with well-established psychometric methodology (validity and reliability estimations) to attain a reliable resource to evaluate MOOC participants. Four independent datasets from MOOCs on energy-related topics were used to psychometrically examine the new “Initial survey of interests, motivations, and knowledge regarding MOOCs” (EIIMC-MOOC). The results indicate that the EIIMCMOOC is a valid, reliable and stable tool to evaluate initial motivation and prior knowledge of participants attending energy-related topics.
- Do consumers really care about aspects of corporate social responsibility when developing attitudes toward a brand?(Taylor & Francis, 2021-08-18) Vera Martínez, Jorge; Alvarado Herrera, Alejandro; Curráz Pérez, Rafael; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey; Manrai, AjayThe present study assesses the relationship between the dimensions of perceived corporate social responsibility (PCSR) and consumer perceptions about a brand. The approach taken herein for PCSR is based on the sustain-centric paradigm. Under this model, PCSR comprises three dimensions: economic, social, and environmental. Accordingly, a system of 11 hypotheses embedded in a conceptual framework is proposed and empirically tested. Measurements for the constructs in the hypotheses are assessed using a structured questionnaire with 521 respondents. The participants evaluated the brands of two major companies in Mexico. Path structural equation modeling is used to test the hypotheses. The results show that, of the three dimensions of PCSR, only economic and social dimensions affect variables related to brand perceptions. The proposed model suggests an explanatory power over attitude toward a brand through firm credibility, brand identification, and perceived functional value. The results imply that consumers disregard firm environmental responsibility when evaluating brands despite growing social efforts attempting to encourage environmental consciousness.
