Educational technology applied to adult education

Adult learning has been ubiquitous not only in the institutions of higher learning but in the lower learning institutions. As shown by many authors, adult learners often bring with them a high level of experience and higher expectations that positively reflect their performance in their classroom-based activity. This study is done explicitly on educational technology applied in adult learning to enhance the learning activities and increase the level of enrollment in adult learners. Also, the study brings tolight how significant technological advancement in education is to adult learners since a higher percentage of students are busy people with different sets of commitments. The study suggests that faculty members' attitudes toward instructional technology,particularly those geared at adults, need to be re-evaluated to serve their students better. Instructors need to think about how technology might affect the development and use of andragogy in the classroom to help adult learners.Campus Arequip

The mediating role of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the entrepreneurial personality and green entrepreneurship : the case of Peruvian's university students.

Nowadays, the value of innovation, green behavior, and entrepreneurship have grown, which is essential for a country's sustainable development. However, there has been no in-depth study of what the ecosystem should be to promote entrepreneurship and, thus, care for the environment. For this reason, this study aims to explore the entrepreneurial ecosystem's effect on Peruvian university students' entrepreneurial personality and green entrepreneurship. This study uses a duly validated instrument that includes the three variables divided by dimensions and was applied to a population of university students in Peru. Using a simple random sampling technique, the data were collected from 384 students of Peruvian universities. This study used the Smart-PLS to examine the reliability of the data and the correlation of the dimensions and items of the variables. In conclusion, providing entrepreneurship tools can help students develop desirable personality traits to generate sustainable businesses. The job of universities is to improve education for sustainable development. This means that students should learn the skills and knowledge they need to use environmental practices in their businesses.Edwerson William Pacori Paricahua (Universidad nacional de Juliaca), Jorge Martín Cruz Padilla (Universidad Norbert Wiener), Soraya del Pilar Carranco (Madrid Universidad Central del Ecuador), Jose Omar García Tarazona (Universidad Nacional de educación), Sonia Alejandrina Sotelo Muñoz (Universidad científica del Sur), Jesus Enrique Reyes Acevedo (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Alto Amazonas), Jose Daniel Sanchez Fernandez (Universidad Católica de Santa María), Isaac Merino Quispe (Universidad Nacional Jose Maria Arguedas), José Luis Arias-Gonzáles (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú), Roxana Yolanda Castillo-Acobo (Universidad Nacional de San Agustín), Milagros del Rosario Cáceres-Chávez (Camosun College)Includes bibliographical references

Mediating role of inclusive leadership in innovative teaching behavior

Purpose: The prime purpose of current research is to investigate the mediating role of inclusive leadership between teaching policy, teachingresources,and innovativeteaching behavior. Design/methodology/approach: This research has collected data on a Likert scale questionnaire and the structural equation modeling technique is applied in data analysis.The population of this research are teachers in Peru. Findings: The findings of this research highlighted that the mediating role of inclusive leadership is significant between teaching policy, teachingresources,and innovative teaching behavior.Furthermore, the research highlighted that the direct impact of teaching policy, teachingresources, and inclusiveleadership are significant in innovative teaching behavior.Research limitations/implications: This research has theoretical implications as it has enhanced the model of innovative teaching with mediating role of inclusive leadership. Furthermore, the practical implications of this research can improve teaching behavior innovatively by adopting new policies for teaching and utilizing appropriate resources for it. Originality/value: This research is designed on the original idea to improve the model of innovative teaching behavior with inclusive leadership to provide remarkable implications in the knowledge and practice.Campus Chimbot

Influencia de la Ansiedad Escénica en la Ejecución Musical de los Estudiantes de Cuerdas Frotadas del Conservatorio Regional de Musica Luis Duncker Lavalle, Arequipa – 2018

TesisEsta investigación establece la influencia de la ansiedad escénica en la ejecución musical de los estudiantes de cuerdas frotadas del Conservatorio Regional de Música “Luis Duncker Lavalle”, ubicado en la ciudad de Arequipa. Se consideró como variable independiente la ansiedad escénica y como variable dependiente la ejecución musical, ambas variables cualitativas. La población estuvo constituida por estudiantes matriculados en el semestre par del año académico 2018, de la especialidad de cuerdas frotadas. Para el presente estudio la muestra fue censal, es decir, se trabajó con todos los estudiantes de la población. El tipo de investigación es de campo y el nivel es correlacional causal. El instrumento de recolección utilizado para la Ansiedad Escénica, es de técnica encuesta, el Test Pingüino para la Ansiedad Escénica en Músicos, es un instrumento validado por Eduardo Carlos Juárez López (2014), que clasifica la ansiedad a través de sus síntomas, validado mediante prueba piloto y para determinar la confiabilidad del test se aplicó el método test-retest, y se obtuvo una confiabilidad del 85.87%. El instrumento utilizado para la Ejecución Musical, fue de tipo observación, y fue una Rúbrica de Evaluación de Ejecución Musical, de fuente propia, clasificando la ejecución en técnica e interpretación, cuya validación fue concretada a través de la consulta a tres expertos, que actuaron como jueces externos y revisaron críticamente los enunciados permitiendo realizar los ajustes necesarios. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el 32% de estudiantes con ansiedad escénica media tienen ejecución musical deficiente. La hipótesis ha sido demostrada, según la prueba de chi cuadrado, estableciendo que la ansiedad escénica influye significativamente de manera negativa en la ejecución musical de los estudiantes de la especialidad de Cuerdas frotadas del Conservatorio Regional de Música Luis Duncker Lavalle. PALABRAS CLAVES: Ansiedad escénica, ejecución musical, cuerdas frotadas, síntomas, técnica, interpretación

How big data is used as a key element for hybrid university education

Hybrid learning in universities is the blending and mixing of the learning environments, this includes both face-to-face (FTF) which implies classroom instruction and online environment (E-learning)  as well. According to De Mauro, Greco and Grimaldi (2016), Ellis’ study shows that hybrid learning provides the students with the opportunity to understand and explore the real world at the same time through various authentic experiences. Authentic experience as cited by De Mauro, Greco and Grimaldi (2016) can be facilitated in the online learning environment through coming up with sufficient online learning or by blending learning to combine both online and FTF learning. The main objective of hybrid learning is to enhance effective and efficient experience through a more improved delivery model. This study is based on the review of previous articles using PRISMA methodology, it focuses on the big data as key element in hybrid learning in university education. The main objective of this study is to review 40 articles published in Scopus within 2010 to 2022 subject to big data in education, hybrid learning in universities or higher learning institutions and based on their findings the study come up with a conclusion  as discussed below
