Co-Creation Strategies for Equitable Open Education
Education must be inclusive for all. Higher education institutions are aware of their responsibility to provide alternatives to meet the challenges of equitable education. But the great diversity of possibilities creates an even greater challenge: how to include everyone? This article presents the development of the INSPIRA framework, a participatory model designed to guide co-creation strategies that foster inclusion and equity in open and digit…
Decoding motivation for leadership in higher education
Decoding motivation for leadership in higher education represents a scientific and talent management imperative, the complexity of which is being rigorously modelled and unveiled through the predictive power of machine learning (ML), promising to catalyse a transformation in the training of future leaders. The study focused on predicting leadership and entrepreneurship among higher education students, analysing seven dimensions: aesthetic, econom…
From access to agency
Open education has emerged as a promising approach to addressing persistent disparities in access to learning and knowledge creation. When thoughtfully aligned with principles of inclusion and equity, it offers meaningful possibilities for shaping more just and responsive educational environments. Yet such alignment is neither automatic nor guaranteed. While Open Educational Resources can extend the reach of education, they may also inadvertently…
Humetav model for citizen science initiatives
The socio-ecological impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss, and globalisation are becoming increasingly evident locally and globally. While efforts are being made to sensitise citizens through environmental and ecological education, the impetus for their active participation in addressing growing socio-ecological problems is still lagging behind. In this context, this study presents the design and testing process of a citizen science works…
Driving complex thinking and technological entrepreneurship with artificial intelligence
Relevance of objective and subjective profile
Creativity is a 21st Century skill. Promoting problem-solving and attending to global complex issues in formative learning experiences and professional endeavors is considered necessary. The assessment of creativity in higher education is a challenge itself due to few objective instruments for Spanish speakers and Latin populations considering this skill as key for current and future challenges. In addition to formal creativity training, which is…
Entrepreneurial thinking and Education 4.0 in communities with development gaps
Entrepreneurial thinking is considered a desirable competency in the profile of today’s professionals because it includes sub-competencies that strengthen individuals’ leadership capacity and stimulate the development of creative solutions that present a high impact on society. However, it has been detected that disadvantaged communities located in areas with underdeveloped conditions and rural areas present a significant disparity in access to t…
Augmented intelligence for open education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) development with an inclusive vision will not happen without the design theory and committed practice, but neither can it be carried out from a biased in-a-silo design vision. Having as its primary goal to augment human capacities, it is crucial to overcome the bias produced by human fuzziness. The application of the DM4O design methodology enables the envisioning of different scenarios to conceptualize inclusive digi…
Maicc model
As traditional education systems struggle to keep up with technological advances, incorporating open science into Education 5.0 is critical to addressing student skills gaps. In this study, the MAICC model is introduced, a tool designed to foster complex thinking in higher education students through the evaluation of citizen science projects. It integrates research-based learning and service learning, and helps develop critical and reflective ski…
