Developing future-ready competencies
In a rapidly changing and uncertain world, future professionals must develop competencies that enable them to address complex challenges effectively. Complex thinking, encompassing critical, systemic, scientific, and innovative sub-competencies, is fundamental for lifelong learning and professional adaptability. This study examines the perception of the achievement of complex thinking competence among university students in Mexico, Chile and Spai…
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…
Academic performance as a driver for the development of reasoning for complexity and digital transformation competencies
This study analyzed the relationship between academic performance and the development of transversal competencies of reasoning for complexity and digital transformation in higher education students. The Tec21 educational model of the Tecnológico de Monterrey was used as a framework for analysis. Data from 33,319 students were analyzed following a CRISP-DM methodology, first an exploratory analysis was performed on the data to recognize and unders…
EComplexity
The eComplexity instrument aims to measure the perception of achievement in the complex thinking competency and its sub-competencies. To ensure the reliability of this instrument, validation processes like the one presented in this article are necessary. Methodologically, this study evaluates data from 1,037 university students in Mexico, confirming the statistical validity and reliability of the instrument. As a result, the demonstrated reliabil…
Complex thinking and profile of Colombian university teachers
During the last decade, the development of competencies has become a cardinal point for universities, focusing not only on those skills directly associated with technical or disciplinary aspects but also on those necessary in training for life. In this sense, the so-called general (transversal) competencies become primary in the curricula as part of the training of students regardless of discipline. However, although much literature has reported …
