Within globalization and the development of information and communication technologies (ICT), social and civic competence and sustainability take on a relevant role in the international scope. To this end, a theoretical section on citizenship models and the different fingerprints of sustainability is presented. The study is quantitative, with a sample of 161 massive open online courses (MOOCs) from three of the main platforms (Coursera, EdX and MiriadaX) with content on citizenship, citizen participation and/or sustainability. Both data collection and analysis are structured around a system of four categories: Technical dimension, didactic dimension, citizenship and sustainability. An exploratory analysis is carried out, followed by a factorial analysis focused on correlations and reduction of factors that allows us to define a main formative profile of the MOOC in relation to the reference themes. In this way, this research concludes that there is an international trend in MOOCs in citizenship and sustainability, whose predominant training proposals include contents related to the ecological citizenship model, as well as issues such as lack of resources, the need to reduce waste derived from consumption, climate change, or the impact of companies on the local economy and environment.

Different studies show that mixed methodology can be effective in medical training. However, there are no conclusive studies in specialist training on advanced life support (ALS). The main objective of this research is to determine if, with mixed didactic methodology, which includes e-learning, similar results are produced to face-to-face training. The method used was quasi-experimental with a focus on efficiency and evaluation at seven months, in which 114 specialist doctors participated and where the analysis of the sociodemographic and pre-test variables points to the homogeneity of the groups. The intervention consisted of e-learning training plus face-to-face workshops versus standard. The results were the performance in knowledge and technical skills in cardiac arrest scenarios, the perceived quality, and the perception of the training. There were no significant differences in immediate or deferred performance. In the degree of satisfaction, a significant difference was obtained in favour of the face-to-face group. The perception in the training itself presented similar results. The main limitations consisted of sample volume, dropping out of the deferred tests, and not evaluating the transfer or the impact. Finally, mixed methodology including e-learning in ALS courses reduced the duration of the face-to-face sessions and allowed a similar performance.

As its first objective, this article carries out a bibliometric analysis aimed at serving as a guide on how to conduct bibliometrics using Biblioshiny, an interface of the Bibliometrix statistical software. To achieve this, a search has been used as an example, detailing the methodology, procedures, and strategies employed to address research questions and, as a secondary objective, to understand which works jointly develop Computational Thinking, Modelling, and Inquiry in the field of sciences. By utilizing quantitative statistical methods for data visualization, the intention is to identify the most relevant authors and journals, along with their impact indices, as well as the main thematic areas and their temporal evolution, in order to gain insights into what is being studied and how in this field. The results indicate that modelling is one of the salient themes among the 31 selected articles, accomplished through research, construction, and design of simulations in digital environments using block-based programming. Keywords: bibliometrics; bibliometrix; modelling; computational thinking; inquiry; science education learning.

The present work describes an educational experience carried out in a secondary school in Spain, where the case of Tinto River is presented as a learning scenario to understand the concept of pH and its logarithmic scale. Through the use and programming of controller boards (Micro Bit) and sensors, this study aims to address the underlying level of abstraction and alternative conceptions related to these topics. The intention is to provide practical examples for the development of a teaching-learning sequence based on inquiry, modeling, and computational thinking. This sequence addresses a current socio-scientific issue, while also considering students’ comments, and considering the Spanish digital competence model. The analysis includes an evaluation of its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The results indicate that the sequence can be highly motivating in understanding the concepts presented and in acquiring digital competencies. However, it also reveals limitations in terms of time required and the complexity of its design.

Current higher education policies include several challenges, such as the academic internationalization of universities, mobility, and cultural plurality. Beyond the official curriculum, university educators have conceptions of citizenship and pluricultural competence. To understand the conceptions of educators on both topics in the Hispanic and Japanese contexts of higher education, this article presents a quantitative study involving a collaboration between a sample of education and social sciences teaching staff from universities in Spain and Japan. The CYASPS^® (Citizenship and Plurilingual Social Actors in Higher Education) instrument and a categories system were designed for data collection and analysis with the support of SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) software. Using a comparative approach, this study investigated the teaching staffs’ conceptions about citizenship and pluricultural teaching–learning environments, which focused on their views regarding different kinds of citizenship, citizens’ participation, and sources for the development of pluricultural competences. Based on a descriptive and factorial analysis, there were significant correlations between citizenship and pluricultural competence, with relevant connections between key aspects of pluricultural competence, including awareness of the rights from the liberal citizenship model, civic commitment of the republican citizenship model, and several elements of cosmopolitan and radical citizenship.

La integración de la Inteligencia Artificial (IA) en la educación ha provocado controversia debido a la diversidad de interpretaciones de su concepto, sus posibles beneficios y las preocupaciones éticas asociadas, lo que subraya la necesidad de un debate informado y una implementación cuidadosa para optimizar su impacto en el aprendizaje. Esta investigación revisa sistemáticamente, siguiendo las directrices del protocolo PRISMA, la evolución del concepto de Inteligencia Artificial (IA) en la producción científica desde 2017 hasta 2023 utilizando las bases de datos WOS y Scopus. Se empleó un enfoque de métodos mixtos, consistiendo en un análisis bibliométrico y de contenido. Para el análisis bibliométrico, los datos se procesaron en Bibliometrix basándose en las variables: evolución y producción científica anual, ley de Bradford, autores más relevantes, producción científica por países, mapa de palabras clave y mapa de colaboración global. Los resultados indican que la denominación "Inteligencia Artificial" es controvertida. El análisis bibliométrico revela un crecimiento constante en la producción científica sobre IA desde 2017 hasta 2023, con un pico en el último año. Se ha demostrado que la IA tiene capacidades notables en tareas específicas, como el reconocimiento de voz, la clasificación de imágenes y la toma de decisiones en situaciones complejas.
