In this work, we focus on the use of video in the higher education space. In particular, we question whether summary videos of learning objectives and exercises can be used effectively to enhance learning. Recent methodologies and the new online paradigm have increased the use of Learning Management Systems (LMS), especially at the higher level education system. One of the advantages is that LMS allows the acquisition of objective data from student activity. In our study, we applied the video-mentioned methodology and further analyzed the student’s behavior. This allows us to provide a student categorization based on their online profile activity and concisely characterize their LMS platform interaction. The study was developed in an undergraduate Engineering degree course at the Universitat de València, allowing us to measure the success of video use for students. Our promising results indicate there is a relation between access to educational videos and the student’s academic performance, supporting educational videos can be effectively used to enhance learning.","PeriodicalId":38963,"journal":{"name":"Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologias del Aprendizaje","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42637642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, a Learning Analytics approach based on three stages was developed: first, analysis and debugging of the database; second, multivariate analysis; and third, machine learning techniques. The results show an association between the performance levels in the Highschool test and the university test results. In addition, the machine learning algorithm that adequately fits the research problem is the Generalized Linear Network Model. For the training stage, the results of the model in Accuracy, AUC, Sensitivity, and Specificity were 0.810, 0.820, 0.813, and 0.827, respectively; in the evaluation stage, the results of the model in Accuracy, AUC, Sensitivity, and Specificity were 0.820, 0.820, 0.827 and 0.813 respectively.","PeriodicalId":38963,"journal":{"name":"Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologias del Aprendizaje","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46976460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research question explored here is as follows: what is the impact of Just in Time Teaching (JiTT) implementation on student academic achievements as measured by the grades obtained by engineering students in physics laboratories? We examined the research question by statistical analysis of the grades obtained by students before and after the implementation of the JiTT strategy. The statistical analysis showed an increase in the percentage of students with grades over 4.0/5.0 upon the implementation of this strategy. A significant difference between the grades obtained before and after implementation in the Physics I and Physics II laboratories was confirmed by ANOVA (p < 0.005); in contrast, in Physics III laboratories, we observed similar grades before and after the implementation. We conclude that the implementation of JiTT improves the grade distribution over higher values, suggesting that students have better learning outcomes; more efforts are needed in Physics III laboratories to achieve a similar (or greater) increase in grades than in Physics I and II.","PeriodicalId":38963,"journal":{"name":"Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologias del Aprendizaje","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41512422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work proposes an architectural model for a mixed reality ecosystem to support older adults’ daily activities. The work advocates the design of the ecosystem components, which are used in two scenarios for the rehabilitation of the visuo-constructive ability of patients, making a more adequate and detailed combination and implementation of connectivity, software and peripherals.","PeriodicalId":38963,"journal":{"name":"Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologias del Aprendizaje","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42142869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This case study analyses the profiles, preferences, and satisfaction data of over 2.7 million unique users of the MOOCs that the Universitat Politècnica de València has been offering since 2013 to a mainly Spanish-speaking public. This descriptive analysis uses the analytics provided by the platforms used and a satisfaction survey with more than 77,000 responses. The results reveal similar demographics to those reported in other studies, a stagnation in enrolment in recent years, and the measures adopted by edX to achieve sustainability have reduced the number of successful candidates. The most requested subjects are languages and courses on software office tools. In addition, students confirm their satisfaction with the initiative (3.92/5 in terms of expectations met), courses and platforms, as well as the fact that they spend an average of 3 hours a week following the courses, that they consider the duration of the teaching videos to be between 3 and 10 minutes and that they consider the options for resolving doubts offered by UPV to be sufficient.","PeriodicalId":38963,"journal":{"name":"Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologias del Aprendizaje","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49014121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, to analyse the learning process within an organizational environment, and how a company captures, maintains and transmits the knowledge. We conducted a survey to identify the software practitioner needs regarding experience and knowledge transfer. Once we could realize there is a challenge to manage the knowledge, a systematic mapping of the literature is carried out. We have considered works published between 2007 and 2019. 51 articles were selected, 71% are studies in industry, 29% are focused on university education. Our findings reveal the great challenge involved in studying the acquisition and exchange of new knowledge. Additionally, we were supported with an initial survey to validate results.
