Based on the teaching experience, the authors identify some difficulties that students have to design research proposals related to information management in the Areas of Economic and Administrative Sciences, as well as Social Sciences and Humanities of the Universidad Autónoma de Nayarit (UAN). Attention is given to the development of skills for obtaining adequate information, but emphasizing its use within training of research. With this, we emphasize that the tools offered by the courses contents related to information management are not being incorporated into the practical activities of the students in the subsequent semesters. On the other hand, placing them in the first semester, means that students do not need to use the skills learned until more advanced semesters, this ends up becoming a didactic obstacle.

Job satisfaction with respect to the policies and practices that guide flexible work in companies has become a topic of great interest to managers of organizations.

Esta investigacion tiene como objetivo analizar el impacto que las actividades de Responsabilidad Social de las empresas tienen en la Cohesion Social de las comunidades mineras a las que pertenecen. Para tal efecto se ha realizado una investigacion cualitativa que mediante entrevistas semi estructuradas recogio informacion de los beneficiarios directos de los programas de Responsabiliad Social Empresarial. Se ha encontrado que tales programas influyen en el 20% de las variables que explican la Cohesion Social, de manera que el 80% restante no tiene relacion con los programas emprendidos por las empresas, pero si con actividades de homofilia. Las empresas deben replantearse las estrategias que realizan en materia de Responsabilidad Social Empresarial para influir plenamente en la Cohesion social, asi mismo incluir en sus estrategias el concepto deontologico de la Responsabilidad Social Empresarial.
