Systemic vision of the technological educational context in Latin America

Abstract

The research aimed to diagnose the reality of Latin America in the technological educational context, from the perspectives of different international organizations. A documentary and interpretive study was designed using discursive hermeneutics to detect the similarities and differences found in the pronouncements made by these organizations; about the use and appropriation of pedagogical solutions based on digital technologies that are fundamental in the countries of this region to guarantee a comprehensive education in accordance with these globalized and post-pandemic times. The international entities selected for analysis, and which served as a reference sample for this diagnosis, were: the World Bank (WB); the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC); the United Nations Organization for Education, Science and Culture (UNESCO) and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The diagnosis was oriented towards the perception that these organizations have of the current reality and the solutions offered to solve the obstacles in the face of these realities. The results show discursive disparities regarding the existing technological-educational situation, as well as coincidences related to the aspects proposed to remedy these obstacles. It was concluded that the support received by these organizations around technology-based education in Latin American countries, should not be biased by the interests of the global economy that limit the autonomy of these people.

Theoretical approach to the concept of sociometry and its benefits for the social sciences

“…La adaptabilidad de la sociometría a diversos campos de estudio amplía su aplicación más allá de la psicología social. Se precisa que encuentra relevancia en la antropología, la sociología, la educación, así como en la gestión organizacional y el diseño de políticas públicas ( Jiménez-Pitre et al, 2023;Šolcová et al, 2022;Stefanini, et al, 2021). Esta expansión refleja la universalidad de las relaciones sociales como objeto de estudio y la versatilidad de la sociometría para investigarlas.…”

Predicting Student Dropout based on Machine Learning and Deep Learning: A Systematic Review

“…A theoretical justification for the superior performance of RandomForest lies in its nature as a Machine Learning ensemble [60][61][62][63][64][65] , which are techniques that combine multiple individual models to improve predictive capability and system robustness 66 . It is characterized by creating a set of decision trees, each representing an individual model in the ensemble 60,[67][68][69][70][71][72] .…”

Bibliometric analysis of the main applications of digital technologies to business management

“…(14,15,16,17) Sin embargo, junto con estas ventajas, también surgen desafíos y riesgos que deben abordarse para garantizar una implementación exitosa y sostenible. (18,19,20,21,22) La implementación de tecnologías digitales en la gestión de negocios puede contribuir significativamente a la consecución de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS). (23,24,25,26) Algunos ODS que se ven directamente impactados por la adopción de tecnologías digitales en los negocios incluyen el ODS 9 (Industria, Innovación e Infraestructura), que promueve la innovación tecnológica y el acceso a las TIC, y el ODS 12 (Producción y Consumo Responsables), que busca fomentar prácticas sostenibles en las empresas.…”
