Is university teaching aligned with the sustainable development goals possible? An approach through the virtual training of university professors
Purpose This study aims to determine the degree of knowledge acquired by university professors after receiving virtual training on the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and their relationship with the contents of the subjects taught. Design/methodology/approach A 40-h virtual course on SGDs and higher education was designed. To evaluate professor knowledge, a questionnaire was administered to professors from different fields of knowledge. The …
Designing circular economy strategies in distributed generation for small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises using Monte Carlo simulation
The circular economy (CE) strategies in energy communities enable firms to efficiently manage the excess of photovoltaic energy they produce, and thereby enhance their sustainability. Thus, the present research aims to compare the economic and financial profitability and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of shared photovoltaic self‐consumption versus individual self‐consumption in the region of Extremadura (Spain). Six firms with complementary energ…
The Role of the Social Sciences When Choosing University Studies
The motivations that lead students to decide on a study modality or on a university degree provide relevant information to improve teaching–learning processes. This work addresses the question regarding the choice of study through analysis of four particular cases. They are special because the individuals chose their studies according to reasons different from the usual ones. To study these cases, interviews were carried out with the individuals.…
What Are University Professors’ Motivations? A Realistic Approach to Self-Perception of a Group of Spanish University Professors Belonging to the G-9 Group of Universities
Universities face challenges on a number of levels. In this scenario, university professors play an important role as facilitators of knowledge. The main objective of this study was to analyse the motivations that influence the professional performance in a sample of 102 university professors from nine Spanish public universities (Male: 54 (52.9%); Female: 48 (47.1%)). For this purpose, a questionnaire of 22 closed-ended Likert-type questions was…
Analysis of Interurban Mobility in University Students
The management of mobility in large cities is a complex issue of great interest due to its economic, social, and environmental impact. In this work, the interurban mobility of engineering students from two campuses of the University of Seville is studied. Specifically, this work carries out an analysis of the preferences of students in terms of mobility to their study centres and determines the environmental impact of such mobility in terms of kg…
