- Educational Innovation Supported by ICT to Identify Entrepreneurial Skills in Students in Higher Education.(2020-10-21) Portuguez Castro, May; Gómez Zermeño, Marcela Georgina; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey; Universidad de SalamancaIt is indisputable that society is facing a time of great change and uncertainty toward the future. The situation around the world due to contingency has generated disruptions in all fields, and education is no exception. The digital transformation of educational institutions has increased vertiginously at all levels of instruction. The current reality leads organizations to worry about finding a way to train people with relevant skills that allow them to deal with the challenges that lie ahead. So, universities play an important role in the development of competencies that equip their graduates not only to enter the labor market but also to generate new employment options through entrepreneurship that contributes to the solution of major global problems. The purpose of this document is to present a doctoral thesis project that contributes to educational innovation based on technologies that identify entrepreneurial skills in university students. This study followed a design-based research methodology in which different quantitative and qualitative instruments were applied to collect data supportive of the objectives that had been set. It was found that this project contributes by analyzing the students' profiles to identify and understand better their entrepreneurial skills and interests and strengthening them transversally throughout their careers through connection with the university entrepreneurial ecosystem. The results show it is possible to develop an e-learning educational model that can be scaled to other contexts and contribute to the development of an entrepreneurial spirit, a competency that is difficult for students to achieve.
- Entrepreneur profile and entrepreneurship skills: Expert's analysis in the Mexican entrepreneurial ecosystem(2020-07-07) Portuguez Castro, May; Ross Scheede, Carlos; Gómez Zermeño, Marcela Georgina; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey; IEEEEntrepreneurship has high relevance in recent years, thanks to its contribution to the growth of the economy and job generation. The purpose of this research is to analyze and validate through consultation to experts of the entrepreneurship ecosystem in Mexico, the main features and skills that form a successful entrepreneur. The study followed a Delphi method in two rounds, with 26 participants. Results allowed determining which traits and skills are the most relevant for entrepreneurship development in this context, such as perseverance, the attitude to achieve an objective, the ability to identify opportunities and motivation. On the other hand, the experts gave less importance to the sociodemographic traits in their influence on entrepreneurship, as are the cases of gender, age, or level of education. Skills such as seeking opportunities, communication, and persistence were considered as the most important for experts. These findings can be used to develop training programs, to define content that promotes those traits and skills, and to strengthen the entrepreneur’s development into an ecosystem. Analysis of the topic through consultation with experts in Mexico is original and allows validating the findings in an underrepresented region in the literature.
