- Scaling social, scientific, and technological entrepreneurship skills: designing the OpenEdR4C platform(Springer Link, 2024-08-05) George Reyes, Carlos Enrique; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Suárez Brito, Paloma; Alcantar Nieblas, Carolina; https://ror.org/03ayjn504The development of entrepreneurship skills in higher education is necessary to train citizens to identify opportunities and solve problems in an increasingly complex society. However, training at the university is not enough, so experiences must be designed that help students strengthen social, scientific and technological entrepreneurship skills through a hinge competence: complex thinking. This paper shows a proposal for the design of a web platform through a project called OpenEdR4C that imbricates complex thinking-entrepreneurship and whose purpose is to contribute to the training of students and lifelong learners with skills and competencies necessary to face the challenges of today’s world and develop their potential as entrepreneurs and committed and innovative citizens. The description of the OpenEdR4C project, its objectives, stages, as well as the first pre-prototype that will become a learning platform is presented.
- Empowering scientific entrepreneurship: impact of a self-managed educational platform 4.0 for the development of complex thinking(2024) López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Rodriguez Abitia, Guillermo; Martínez Pérez, Sandra; Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; University of AlicanteThe advance of technology has transformed education, enabling the development of sophisticated educational platforms that integrate robotics and artificial intelligence. This study investigates the impact of a student selfmanaged educational platform 4.0 using robotics and artificial intelligence to promote scientific entrepreneurship. Although university students are familiar with science and entrepreneurship, they do not see themselves as entrepreneurs with technology and scientific knowledge to achieve personal and professional growth objectives. This study shows a technological platform that helps them achieve their goals. Over 400 participants responded to pre- and post-test perception surveys of scientific entrepreneurship subject to One-Way ANOVA. The results indicate that the platform promotes developing entrepreneurial skills in different areas of knowledge, highlighting its contextual effectiveness, including an academic setting for scientific entrepreneurship. The study shows that Education 4.0 technology oriented toward scientific entrepreneurship allows the participant to verify their competency mastery due to the training process before graduation. This educational platform is an appropriate and valuable tool for promoting entrepreneurship in academic settings.
- Instructor profile in global shared learning classroom:Development of competencies and skills(2023-06-25) Caratozzolo, Patricia; Mejía Manzano, Luis Alberto; García García, Rebeca Maria; Ruiz Cantisani, Maria Ileana; Vázquez Villegas, Olga Patricia; Lara Prieto, Vianney; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Membrillo Hernández, JorgeThe needs of Industry 4.0 -and the globalization of workplaces- set new requirements for workers entering the job market, including the ability to function in intercultural environments and global societies. Higher education Institutions should promote global citizenship learning through Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) strategies, an innovative way to engage students in a global, multicultural, shared learning environment. Global Shared Learning Classroom (GSLC) is a COIL option of at least four weeks in which complex problems that transcend borders are analyzed and addressed. Instructors must be able to guide students to identify, discuss and solve these problems online and in a short time. This work explores several GSLC experiences carried out during the last five years (including experiences during COVID-19 and post-pandemic) between Latin American and European universities. The study includes evaluating different training programs for instructors carried out to meet the appropriate profile of COIL leaders. In addition, rubrics are suggested to diagnose and assess transversal competencies such as intercultural communication, critical thinking, global citizenship, multicultural collaboration, adaptation to virtual work environments, and the use of technologies. The results show that GSLC instructors must possess solid knowledge of their specialization and be trained in specific global competencies and soft skills for COIL experiences to succeed.
- Cultural differences in complexity reasoning in higher education(2022-10-19) Ramírez Montoya, María Soledad; Rodríguez Abitia, Guillermo; Martínez Pérez, Sandra; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey; García Peñalvo, Francisco JoséThe transformations experienced, the increase in socio-educational inequalities, the lack of diversity, and the gender gap, both in academic and professional fields, highlight the need to deepen training and education in STEAM areas (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics). This paper identifies two key areas to promote the visibility of women in STEM disciplines: national culture and complex thinking. To this end, a survey instrument was applied to 684 university students from four different countries: Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, and Spain. The instrument sought to measure the different dimensions that make up complex thinking (critical, scientific, innovative, and systemic). A multiple analysis of variance was carried out to compare differences between countries, and an analysis of possible connections with cultural dimensions that might be appropriate. Simple boxplots were also created to visually inspect the behavior of the different samples for each dimension. The results obtained, based on national culture point to a clear direct relationship with all components of complex thinking.
- A pipeline framework for robot maze navigation using computer vision, path planning and communication protocols(IEEEXplore, 2021-06-14) Rodriguez Tirado, Areli; Magallan Ramirez, Daniela; Martinez Aguilar, Jorge David; Moreno Garcia, Carlos Francisco; Balderas Silva, David Christopher; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Maze navigation is a recurring challenge in robotics competitions, where the aim is to design a strategy for one or several entities to traverse the optimal path in a fast and efficient way. To do so, numerous alternatives exist, relying on different sensing systems. Recently, camera-based approaches are becoming increasingly popular to address this scenario due to their reliability and given the possibility of migrating the resulting technologies to other application areas, mostly related to human-robot interaction. The aim of this paper is to present a pipeline methodology towards enabling a robot solving maze autonomously, by means of computer vision and path planning. Afterwards, the robot is capable of communicating the learned experience to a second robot, which then will solve the same challenge considering its own mechanical characteristics which may differ from the first robot. The pipeline is divided into four steps: (1) camera calibration (2) maze mapping (3) path planning and (4) communication. Experimental validation shows the efficiency of each step towards building this pipeline.
- An immersive week for undergraduate engineering students for developing iot competencies a case study at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico(IEEEXplore, 2020-02-13) Crespo Saucedo, Raúl; López Caudana, Edgar Omar; Ponce Cruz, Pedro; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Emerging technologies are rapidly and deeply impacting the companies' organization, so it is necessary to develop new competencies to face the digital transformation. The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging technology that provides a thematic umbrella that allows educators to develop engineering skills focused on designing electronic devices, programming, connectivity, and the use of platforms in the cloud, among others. This paper describes the experience called “Development of monitoring and control systems for the Internet of Things (IoT)” that took place during the i-Week 2018 at Tecnologico de Monterrey, Mexico City Campus. The engineering students involved in this activity received training on Sigfox and LoRaWAN technologies from external companies and develop an IoT solution following the PBL (Project-Based Learning) methodology, so the students achieved a global vision about industrial and academic IoT design. Each multidisciplinary team developed a functional prototype for solving a specific real problem using Sigfox and LoRaWaN. Also, an executive report and a testimonial video were the deliverables evaluated. The results of implementing the i-Week are positive because IoT skills, problem-solving and collaborative work competencies were achieved by each student. In addition, an excellent qualitative result was the extraordinary impression of the companies about the technological goals achieved by the students during the i-Week. Besides, their communication skills and their technology integration capacity were developed.
