Centros universitarios para el estudio de datos. Responsabilidad y justicia institucional en una sociedad plataformizada
El uso de las plataformas digitales por parte de las comunidades universitarias para la producción de conocimiento, la investigación, la enseñanza y la gestión no sólo se ha intensificado, sino que se ha diversificado desde el estallido de la pandemia del COVID-19. En un contexto en el que la educación superior y el uso de las tecnologías digitales están cada vez más entrelazados, las universidades pueden aprovechar este acontecimiento de hiperdi…
Plan Ceibal 2020
In the present work, a set of future studies were implemented in order to answer the following question: What will the future scenarios be within the next 5 years regarding new technologies in the public education sector in Uruguay? For this purpose, two panels (consisting of 20 participants internal to the programme and 25 international experts external to the programme) were set up to conduct a Delphi study. In addition, a historical analysis o…

Yet despite their virtual focus, some MOOC users also seek to create face-to-face communities with students taking similar courses or…
Unplugging
This paper explores the subtle notion of unplugging to critically analyze the technological determinism of the Smart City. This exploration suggests that being digitally connected should not be perceived as gaining social capital. This article critiques the assumptions of the Smart City and proposes a 10-dimension conceptual framework. The first section of this article explores hyper-connected societies and how unplugging could be beneficial. The…

It seeks to analyze key challenges associated with the match (and mismatch) of skill supply and demand between education and the work force. \n\n Design/methodology/approach – Using a “purposeful sample”, the study provides an evidence-based analysis that explores how and to what extent soft skills …
Networks for citizen consultation and citizen sourcing of expertise
This study aims to explore how public websites facilitate the creation of networks for citizen consultation. Evidence-based analysis is applied to European public-sector websites to determine the degree to which they adopt digital mechanisms and strategies to facilitate citizen participation and collaboration. This study analyses outstanding European public-sector websites as categorised by the European Commission at the 4th European eGovernment …
