- Measuring digital transformation in education 4.0 with DT-Smarty: valid and reliable model(Springer, 2025-04-23) González Pérez, Laura Icela; Enciso González, Juan Antonio; Vicario Solórzano, Claudia Marina; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Tecnológico de Monterrey; Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León; Dirk IfenthalerValidated instruments enable strategic decision-making in an increasingly complex tech- nological environment. 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.
- Educational innovation with alternative credentials as a driver of the digital transformation of the university:a case study in Latin America(The Open University, 2023-05-24) Farías Gaytán, Silvia Catalina; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Aguaded Gomez, Jose Ignacio; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/03a1kt624The dynamics of change in the work environment are becoming more dizzying, given that adopting new technologies generates new knowledge and jobs. This research analyzed a case study of a Mexican university implementing alternative credentials. The method was instrumental case study research, with exploratory and descriptive categories, applying three instruments: documentary analysis of alternative credential programs, a questionnaire, and interviews with the experts involved in designing and delivering alternative credentials. In this case, the implementation of alternative credentials coincided with the reference frameworks of the European Union and the province of Ontario, Canada. Their frameworks mention the vision and institutional mission of alternative credentialing for the value offered, its definition, operation, award processes, accreditation, and quality. The case provides data for interested higher education institutions, such as why to do it, the strategy to follow, the added value offered, the elements that define it and its design, the assessment process and assignment, the timing of accreditation, and where it is recognized. This research contributes recommendations for defining and managing alternative credentials to serve as a reference for other universities interested in incorporating technology-supported educational innovations.
- Transformation and digital literacy: Systematic literature mapping(Springer, 2021-07-15) Farias Gaytan, Silvia Catalina; Aguaded Gomez, Jose Ignacio; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de MonterreyThe advancements of technology have allowed digital transformation to reach all productive sectors, including the education sector and its members. This transformation is linked to emerging technologies, the digitalization of processes and resources, and the demand for users to upgrade to the latest technological updates. This research aims to analyze digital transformation and media literacy publications that impact higher education. Its purpose is to identify the types of research and topics they address and explore the scope of digital transformation in higher education institutions. The systematic mapping method was used to analyze 298 articles published in two databases, Scopus and Web of Science (WoS). Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to select the articles that could be included in this research. The results show that the largest proportion of articles were found in Scopus, and used both qualitative and quantitative empirical research methods, followed by theoretical-conceptual methods and, to a lesser extent, mixed methods. Likewise, the publications originated in five continents, and the Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy had the largest number of publications, with 14. Forty-two percent of the studies were classified in the strategy category, with the most mentioned topic being digital pedagogies. This research provides a perspective on digital transformation studies in higher education institutions and their internalization approaches. This research may be of value to trainers, students, decision-makers, and researchers interested in transformation, educommunication, and educational innovation.
