El objetivo del presente trabajo fue indagar la percepción sobre el trabajo colaborativo en los estudiantes de Educación Superior mediante una encuesta para recopilar datos que permitan su análisis. La investigación se llevó a cabo con un grupo de estudiantes de Segundo Nivel de la Carrera de Educación Básica en Línea de la Universidad Estatal de Milagro. Se inició aplicando una encuesta, con su herramienta el cuestionario, a 194 estudiantes. Es una investigación descriptiva, no experimental, con método deductivo, con enfoque cuantitativo que permite recopilar y analizar información numérica. Del total de encuestados, el 86% son mujeres y el 14% varones. En esta relación, el 78% de los varones encuestados prefieren los trabajos colaborativos; mientras que, solo el 24 % de mujeres se inclina por esta opción. De la misma forma, el 93% de varones y solo el 29% en el caso de las mujeres, indican que el trabajo con otros estudiantes puede ayudar a aprender. Asimismo, solo el 30% de varones y el 37% de mujeres indicaban que prefieren trabajar en forma individual para así poder avanzar rápidamente. Por otro lado, 100% varones y 95% mujeres mencionan en que los trabajos se realizan más rápido si todos colaboran. De esta forma, el presente trabajo detectó sutiles disparidades de opinión entre hombres y mujeres, con una inclinación ligeramente más positiva hacia el trabajo en equipo por parte de los hombres

The steady advancement of online education has not automatically translated into improved educational quality. Teacher training often continues to focus on the technical use of digital tools, while the pedagogical processes through which teachers report supporting students’ digital competence remain insufficiently understood. The objective of this study was to examine the sequential and predictive structure of teachers’ digital competence using the DigCompEdu framework as a reference. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 136 university teachers involved in online education. Data were collected through a self-reported questionnaire based on DigCompEdu and analyzed in two phases: Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). The PLS-SEM results suggested a sequential pattern of associations among teacher-reported constructs: Professional Commitment (PC) was positively associated with Digital Resource Management (DR), which in turn was positively associated with Digital Pedagogy (DP) and Assessment and Feedback (AF). These dimensions were associated with Student Empowerment (SE), which showed the strongest positive relationship with teachers’ reported practices for Facilitating Students’ Digital Competence (FS). The ANN sensitivity analysis showed adequate predictive performance in the testing phase (RMSE = 0.155) and identified Student Empowerment as the predictor with the highest normalized importance within the specified model. These findings suggest that faculty development in online higher education may benefit from moving beyond basic digital literacy and platform management toward pedagogical design, formative assessment, inclusive participation, and learner agency. However, the results should be interpreted as evidence of teacher-reported facilitation practices within the analyzed sample, rather than as direct evidence of students’ actual digital competence development.
