- The transformative potential of Open Educational Resources for teacher education and practice(Taylor @ Francis Online, 2024-09-30) Cubides Lopez, Sandra Milena; Chiappe, Andres; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; https://ror.org/02sqgkj21; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Open educational resources (OER) have significant potential for transforming teacher education in developing countries, yet this remains underexplored. This systematic literature review analyzes 98 articles to understand the impact and innovative prospects of OER’s ‘openness’ attributes on teacher education over the past two decades. While free access to OER is a crucial benefit and contributes to teacher education programmes, effective OER use relies on the proper application of other attributes. Thus, adaptation allows tailoring of materials to specific needs, promoting flexibility and contextualised learning, which are vital for effective teacher education. Free access addresses barriers like the digital divide and ensures content quality and sustainability, enabling equitable access to educational resources. Collaborative practices through OER foster knowledge co-construction and the development of essential 21st-century skills for teachers. The combination of formal and informal learning and remixing enriches teacher education by integrating structured curricula with personalised learning paths. This broader view of ‘openness’ beyond mere access provides insights for reshaping teacher education programmes to be more innovative and responsive to the evolving needs of educators in developing countries. The findings offer guidance for policies and practices to cultivate a new generation of empowered, adaptive teachers through OER integration.
- Complex competencies for leader education: artificial intelligence analysis in student achievement profiling(Taylor @ Francis Online, 2024-07-21) Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Morales Menendez, Ruben; Tworek, Michael; Escobar Díaz, Carlos Alberto; Tariq, Rasikh; Tenorio Sepúlveda, Gloria Concepción; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/03vek6s52Future education requires fostering high-level competencies to enhance student talent, and artificial intelligence (AI) can help in profile analysis. The aim was to determine the variables that predict the GPA of students in the ‘Leaders of Tomorrow’ program through an integrated methodology of data analytics, machine learning modeling, and feature engineering in order to generate knowledge about the application of AI in social impact programs. This research focused on 466 graduates of a ‘Leaders of Tomorrow’. A regression analysis was performed to model the relationship between the dependent variable and multiple independent variables. The findings revealed: (a) Analysis of variance (ANOVA) demonstrated exceptional model fit for predicting ‘student.term_Grade Academic Performance (GPA)_program’ with an R-squared of 0.999; (b) Visual analysis showed that significant variables like age and origin-school Grade-Point Average (GPA) affect term GPA; (c) Kendall tau correlation revealed a positive correlation of origin-school GPA with term GPA and a slightly negative one with age; (d) Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression aligned actual and predicted GPAs closely, indicating high accuracy; and (e) Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) identified ‘student_originSchool.gpa’ as the most predictive feature. This study is intended to be of value to academic communities interested in enhancing the academic profiles of students with complex competencies, as well as communities interested in applying AI in education for predictions that contribute to trajectories for training.

In this framework, how do the practices of reasoning for complexity in Latin American institutions differ from other regions? This study focused on comparing training practices that promote complex thinking in national and international educational entities through analysis of their programs and alternative professional credentials to identify best educational practices. The comparative education method benchmarked the selected institutions and compared the best educational practices. The four categories of analysis were the philosophical, theoretical, and political components and the educational process. A significant-document analysis was applied to publications found on the websites of 19 educational institutions, and the data were triangulated. The findings accounted for (a) educational institutions seeking to educate individuals who can improve the quality of life in society and contribute to sustainable development, (b) educational practices aimed at developing complex thinking competencies and lifelong learning as essential for new educational models, (c) the collaboration of researchers, faculty, and other stakeholders, and appropriate tools for formative assessment, promoting the development of complex reasoning competencies in changing environments, and (d) educational processes focused on developing high skills, innovation, and digital transformation as essential for designing the future of education. This study is intended to be of value to managers, decision-makers, professors, researchers, and society interested in creating new programs to develop high-level capabilities, such as complex thinking.
- Navigating interconnected complexities: validation and reliability of an instrument for sustainable development of education 5.0(Taylor @ Francis Online, 2024) Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Vicario Solórzano, Claudia Marina; González Pérez, Laura Icela; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/059sp8j34; https://ror.org/01fh86n78Sustainability actions in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) profoundly affect students, employees and their communities. These aim at social and economic benefits for local communities. Sustainability must be measured, and its goals must be achieved as part of the university’s mission to impact the community significantly. This work provides the validation results for an instrument that assesses academicians’ perceptions of HEI sustainability activities. The study began with a preliminary investigation of 121 Mexican public HEI students. The scale dimensions were constructed and validated in three steps: (a) establishing a theoretical framework to identify the necessary dimensions, (b) content validation through the judgment of five experts and (c) factor analysis and determination of instrument internal consistency to establish its reliability. The validation yielded three main findings: Aiken’s V coefficient (>0.89) showed high content-based validity indicators. Also, Cronbach’s alpha was 0.937. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) calculated correlation coefficients for the 18-item instrument. The four variables tested in the study (economic and social impact, human rights and gender perspective, environment and work experience and social impact) yielded satisfactory internal consistency. The research affirms a methodology to measure the progress of sustainability models for Education 5.0 using technologies and resources to maximize human well-being.
