The Knowledge Society has highlighted the importance of creativity as a goal competence, which should be fostered in higher education institutions; therefore, it is necessary to integrate innovative educational experiences oriented to the development of creativity complementing the professional training of students. Recent research from psychology and pedagogy reports advances associated with the nature, evaluation, composition, and conditions for teaching creativity that have resulted in successful applications in only one facet of the creative process. In this research, we propose an integrated model for making educational interventions through online courses. This model combines contributions to the teaching of creativity from pedagogy in relation to the pedagogical model, instructional design, and conditions of the teaching-learning process required for the promotion of creativity. It also includes the contributions of psychology in relation to the cognitive processes and skills associated with creativity, the techniques and activities for the development of creative skills, as well as the principles associated with intrinsic motivation based on the theory of self-determination through its application in the learning technique called gamification. The advantage of this integrated model is that it incorporates and fosters multiple components of creativity simultaneously, with the objective of generating creative results of greater breadth and quality.

El presente artículo describe la enseñanza de las matrices inversas modulares usando el algoritmo de criptografía simétrica Hill Cipher y su implementación en dispositivos móviles con Sistema operativo Android. El proceso de descifrado en el algoritmo Hill Cipher involucra el cálculo de matrices inversas modulares. El objetivo de este trabajo es la enseñanza del cálculo necesario para la obtención de matrices inversas modulares a estudiantes de licenciatura en las áreas de las ciencias computacionales a través del proceso de descifrado en la criptografía simétrica. Se realizó un experimento con dos grupos de estudiantes, el grupo experimental y el grupo de control. Se aplicó una prueba en ambos grupos para determinar el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Un análisis comparativo entre ambos grupos muestra un incremento en el desempeño del grupo experimental en el cálculo de las matrices inversas modulares. This article describes the teaching of modular inverse matrices with the symmetric cryptographic algorithm Hill Cipher and its implementation on mobile devices with Android Operative System. The decryption in the Hill Cipher algorithm involves the calculus of modular inverse matrices. The goal of this paper is the teaching of modular inverse matrix calculation to undergraduate students of Computer Sciences through the decryption in symmetric cryptography. An experiment was conducted on two groups of students, the control and the experimental groups. To measure student learning, a test was applied to both groups. Comparison of control and experimental groups results show an increase in student performance for the calculation of modular inverse matrices.
