Abstract
In computer programming education, despite yearly changes in teaching methodologies, students still struggle to grasp the concepts. When they advance to more complex projects, gaps in their basic knowledge become evident. It seems that the knowledge they learn in the first course is forgotten or not well understood. This proposal aims to explore students’ mental models of computer programming concepts to better understand and identify any misconceptions. An iterative methodology is proposed to identify, test, analyse and evidence students’ erroneous mental models in programming. Characterising these mental models is a first step to deepen our understanding and designing strategies to help students improve them. The proposed methodology is exemplified in detail through an undergoing use case at the University of Alicante, and some early results are discussed.

Abstract
Current Information Technologies are mature enough to favor the creation of adaptive learning systems that also encourages active, autonomous and persistent learning. A solution could be the creation of artificial intelligence algorithms capable of detecting the individual learning needs and features of the learners, what skills they are acquiring and how they do it, or how they behave, in order to offer them an adapted and personalized learning experience. This is what is defined a smart learning system.

Therefore, in this research we aim to propose an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model for a learning system to achieve this purpose. It is based on a learning model called CALM (Customized Adaptive Learning Model), that offers personalized learning through different learning paths and adapts to each learner by offering a specific activity at any time. The selection of this activity relies on an AI engine that detects the needs and characteristics of the learner and selects the most appropriate activity.

To implement an AI model for this purpose, applying CALM principles, we propose the use of both the information provided by activities and the learner’s characteristics and progression. Combining these datasets with the use of deep learning techniques, we propose a two phases process. First, the model makes predictions that are personalized for each student, and then it applies a concrete instructional strategy to make the final decision, allowing the teacher to adapt and guide the student’s learning.

¿Estamos enseñando a nuestros jóvenes lo que saben hacer las máquinas? Esto sería un error imperdonable, ya que las máquinas lo harán no solo mejor, sino más barato y sin cansarse ni pedir vacaciones. Hemos de aprender a colaborar con las máquinas, no a luchar contra ellas, ya que el resultado de esta colaboración será superior al que se consigue de forma separada.

Soy optimista, lo sé, pero va en el ADN de ser profesor. Tenemos un sistema educativo diseñado para un mundo con escasez de información, en el que había que ir a buscarla y guardarla para cuando la necesitásemos. Eso justificaba la etapa de nuestras vidas en la que nos formábamos y acudíamos a la universidad. Pero ahora vivimos en una sociedad con sobreinformación (verdades, medias verdades y falsedades), con acceso inmediato y a demanda a la misma. Las universidades, cumpliendo nuestro compromiso con la sociedad de creación, transmisión y preservación del conocimiento, ¿sabremos dar respuesta a este reto?

Resumen
La herramienta ChatGPT, basada en el modelo GPT-3 desarrollado por OpenAI, ya se utiliza por estudiantes de grados de ingeniería como herramienta de apoyo en su proceso de aprendizaje. En este contexto, las implicaciones negativas que presenta el uso de esta herramienta son diversas: dependencia tecnológica, obstaculización del saber y conocer práctico, error en las respuestas, problemas éticos o incluso problemas legales. El uso de esta herramienta sin que los estudiantes hayan recibido formación se considera como problema a investigar. El objetivo es entender en profundidad el contexto tecnológico de la herramienta, cómo se utiliza actualmente entre los estudiantes de ingeniería de un conjunto de universidades privadas y públicas, y su impacto en la educación universitaria. Este artículo es un trabajo en desarrollo donde se presenta el contexto del estudio, la metodología de investigación y unos primeros resultados. Se conduce una encuesta cualitativa-exploratoria con una muestra de más de 360 estudiantes de grados de ingeniería matriculados en diferentes cursos. Se utiliza una estratificación aleatoria para asegurar que la muestra sea representativa de la población. Los resultados sugieren que el modelo GPT-3 puede ser utilizado como una herramienta beneficiosa para los estudiantes de grados de ingeniería.

Abstract

Deep learning models have achieved extensive popularity due to their capability for providing an end-to-end solution. But, these models require training a massive amount of data, which is a challenging issue and not always enough data is available. In order to get around this problem, a few shot learning methods emerged with the aim to achieve a level of prediction based only on a small number of data. This paper proposes a few-shot learning approach that can successfully learn and predict the electricity consumption combining both the use of temporal and spatial data. Furthermore, to use all the available information, both spatial and temporal, models that combine the use of Recurrent Neural Networks and Graph Neural Networks have been used. Finally, with the objective of validate the approach, some experiments using electricity data of consumption of thirty-six buildings of the University of Alicante have been conducted.

ABSTRACT
The transformations experienced in the context of the networked society and the impact of digital technologies in all areas of society, have brought challenges and opportunities to organizations and, in particular, to higher education institutions (HEIs). The challenge of HEIs is twofold: at the same time that they have to transform as organizations to remain competitive, they need to reconfigure the education offered to their students. A process of planning, implementation and monitoring of strategies that enable their digital transformation (DT) is necessary. A transformation that is nourished by scientific knowledge and technologies structured by society and, at the same time, has a unique character for each HEI. This thesis addresses the question of how to implement DT in HEIs. It was was structured with the objective of conceiving a metamodel for DT implementation that respects the diversity, complexity and scope of the phenomenon in a HEI. The challenge was addressed using organizational change theories accompanied by concepts about DT in higher education, networked society, stakeholder theory and 21st century competencies. The nature of the research is technological and the paradigm adopted was pragmatism. As for the objectives it is exploratory and prescriptive, with the use of the mixed method and Design Science Research (DSR) as its methodological approach. The metamodel was conceived using design cycles sustained in the state of the art literature on the subject. The artifact is composed of four elements: digital transformation journey; theoretical lenses of change and digital transformation factors; stakeholders involved; spiraling journey. The results of evaluation of the metamodel were obtained by means of structured and semi-structured interviews with domain experts and strategic managers of HEIs and reveal that the metamodel is consistent, feasible and useful to guide the construction of DT models for HEIs.

Abstract
In recent years, several new Artificial Intelligence methods have been developed to make models more explainable and interpretable. The techniques essentially deal with the implementation of transparency and traceability of black box machine learning methods. Black box refers to the inability to explain why the model turns the input into the output, which may be problematic in some fields. To overcome this problem, our approach provides a comprehensive combination of predictive and explainability techniques. Firstly, we compared statistical regression, classic machine learning and deep learning models, reaching the conclusion that models based on deep learning exhibit greater accuracy. Of the great variety of deep learning models, the best predictive model in spatio-temporal traffic datasets was found to be the Adaptive Graph Convolutional Recurrent Network. Regarding the explainability technique, GraphMask shows a notably higher fidelity metric than other methods. The integration of both techniques was tested by means of experimental results, concluding that our approach improves deep learning model accuracy, making such models more transparent and interpretable. It allows us to discard up to 95% of the nodes used, facilitating an analysis of its behavior and thus improving the understanding of the model.

Abstract
Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are evolving towards a new university model called the digital university, which they will only reach by increasing their overall digital maturity. CRUE Spanish Universities (the Conference of Rectors of Spanish Universities) has used a new Digital Maturity Model for Universities (md4u) to analyze the digital maturity of more than 60 Spanish universities in the UNIVERSITIC 2020 and 2022 surveys. The results presented in this paper show that during this period Spanish universities have increased their overall digital maturity. This increase seems to be due to the COVID pandemic that we have suffered in this period, in which HEIs have launched a large number of digital initiatives to overcome this crisis. Additionally, HEIs leaders have understood the importance of increase digital maturity to make their institutions competitive in a fast changing digital environment.
