The article discusses the growing popularity of collaborations between virtual influencers as a visibility, exposure and engagement strategy for organizations. With the advantage of a certain control of the narrative over what they “say and do”, virtual influencers have been chosen as a way to transmit their brands’ values and key messages. However, it is always worth an ethical, critical and reflective look at the transparency of who these figures are. The basic methodology of the text is bibliographical research, but also exploratory and essayistic. The exploration exercise proposed here allowed us to construct hypotheses so that considerations could be made about the relationships between digital transformations and consumption, advantages and points of attention of collaborations between virtual and real influencers.

Este ensayo tiene por objetivo reflexionar sobre la gestión educativa de frente a la globalización, con el fin de concientizar en la necesidad de enfrentar los desafíos que representa y, a su vez, aprovechar las oportunidades que trae consigo. Lo anterior obliga a replantear las estrategias de planificación y gestión educativa en correspondencia con los avances tecnológicos, en especial en países con poco acceso a la tecnología y a la conectividad, que corren el riesgo de quedar en desventaja en un mundo interconectado. Se concluye que, ante el incremento de la digitalización, el centro educativo está forzado a reinventarse y asumir el reto de comprender e implementar sistemas y redes de información para avanzar hacia la universalización pues, es el medio para la transformación de la educación y su integración dentro de la sociedad del conocimiento

In the current scenario ruled by governance, the digital transformation of education is woven through the participation of multiple actors. Recent academic literature deals with the study of state, regional or private policies. However, municipal policies are also an element of great interest for illustrating micro-political processes, making it possible to develop situated work. Based on this premise, this paper studies the case of a municipality in the province of València that for the last decade has been implementing an initiative to provide digital devices to 5th grade students in its four schools. Using a qualitative approach, a field study is carried out by means of interviews with teachers and classroom observations, in which this initiative is investigated, delving into the difficulties and challenges it entails. The main results show that local councils are key bodies in promoting the digitalisation of schools, and that municipal policies reflect the trends in the transformation of education that govern the macro-political level. In conclusion, it can be seen that the municipal context is driving changes in classroom work, posing important challenges for teachers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Digital Transformation (DT) implies the emergence of new business models based on the widespread use of digital technologies. DT is necessary to improve productivity and access to markets, however, from a gender perspective, there is a digital divide. In this research, the objective is to study the DT from a gender perspective in a specific sector, the agri-food sector, and in a type of specific social economy entity that is fundamental in rural areas, the agri-food cooperatives. In these companies, there is still a gender gap, especially due to the lower proportion of women in the management teams and, in addition, they lag behind other companies in terms of DT. Specifically, DT is analysed in these cooperatives both globally and through the analysis of each of its dimensions: infrastructures, products, organisation, processes and customers. To this end, the study is based on data from a survey among a sample of agri-food cooperatives in Extremadura, a region with a strong specialisation in the agri-food sector and where cooperatives play an important economic, social and environmental role. The results show that the presence of women in the presidency of these cooperatives has a positive influence on the presence of women in their management teams. Furthermore, there are no significant differences in the overall DT of these co-operatives with respect to the gender factor, although there are differences in the specific dimensions of "customers" and "processes".

Journalism is a highly technology-dependent profession, and students, educators, and professionals must develop specific digital skills. This study uses the theory of disruptive innovation to examine how journalism educators adapt their programs in response to changing media environments. A survey of accredited journalism and mass communication programs identified three key challenges: the need for long-term investment, the ability to predict future change and demand, and difficulty in hiring faculty expertise. When asked which technologies will affect journalism curricula in the next 3 to 5 years, artificial intelligence (AI) topped the list, followed by drone journalism, virtual reality, and augmented reality.

La sociedad se encuentra en la cuarta revolución industrial, caracterizada por la transformación digital y la interconexión de sistemas inteligentes. Este cambio ha impactado en diversos ámbitos, como lo económico, político, social y educativo, fusionando tecnologías y desdibujando las fronteras entre lo físico, lo digital y lo biológico. La pandemia de COVID-19 ha acelerado el proceso, dando paso a lo que se ha denominado “la nueva normalidad”. En el contexto argentino, este fenómeno está en una etapa incipiente, con una adopción parcial y limitada de tecnologías, especialmente en áreas comerciales y administrativas, en particular en PYMES. Para lograr una imagen completa del fenómeno, esta revisión exploratoria tiene como objetivo identificar y presentar la información empírica disponible sobre cuál es el impacto de la transformación digital en la gestión o modelos de negocios utilizados por empresas argentinas. Se realizó una revisión de alcance o scoping review, que nos permitió describir y mapear artículos publicados en revistas científicas, apoyado en un Diagrama PRISMA. Se concluye que los desafíos para iniciar procesos de transformación digital son múltiples, destacando la necesidad de cambios estructurales en las organizaciones, la formación digital de los trabajadores y profesionales, así como la promoción de la cultura de innovación.

En el desarrollo de software convencional, la implementación de código con lenguajes de programación clásicos, incluso usando frameworks de desarrollo, requiere que los programadores deban escribir y probar una gran cantidad de código. Esto genera mayores costos en términos de esfuerzo, tiempo y dinero. Debido a la diversidad tecnológica y requerimientos no funcionales, los programadores además deben conocer y manejar diversas herramientas, lo cual hace que la puesta en producción y la evolución de estas aplicaciones sean actividades complejas. Es por ello, que, desde hace una década, ha emergido una nueva tendencia para el desarrollo de software. Las plataformas low-code (LC) permiten un desarrollo y entrega rápida de aplicaciones, requieren menos habilidades para el manejo de diversas herramientas y por ende, son menos costosas. En este contexto han surgido diversas plataformas o entornos LC y la comunidad científica se ha ocupado en el análisis y comparación de estas herramientas, principalmente desde una perspectiva de características técnicas y funcionales. En este trabajo, presentamos los resultados de un caso de estudio descriptivo y comparativo sobre las plataformas LC JHipster y OpenXava.

El estudio aborda la eficiencia en la recolección de datos de precios de la Canasta Básica de Alimentos (CBA) mediante la comparación entre la implementación de Automatización Robótica de Procesos (RPA) y la recolección manual. El objetivo primordial es evaluar la eficacia en términos económicos, precisión y disponibilidad de ambos métodos. Se emplea un enfoque observacional para analizar la implementación del robot de software en la recolección automatizada de datos, midiendo variables clave como el tiempo de recolección, la precisión de datos de cada método. Los resultados revelan un notable ahorro económico con la opción automatizada, medido en equivalentes a tiempo completo (FTE, por sus siglas en inglés de Full-Time Equivalent). La implementación automatizada demuestra mayor precisión en la recopilación de precios y mejor disponibilidad en comparación con el método manual. Este estudio respalda de manera contundente la eficiencia superior de la implementación del RPA en la recolección de precios de la CBA. Ofrece perspectivas valiosas para mejorar la eficacia en la recolección de datos y respalda la adopción estratégica de la RPA en contextos similares.

La transformación digital es un proceso tanto tecnológico como sociocultural que involucra la adopción de tecnologías digitales y modificaciones en los modelos de negocio y la estrategia de las firmas. La literatura que estudia relaciones entre la transformación digital y la competitividad de las empresas se incrementó en el periodo de postpandemia, sin embargo, las investigaciones antes de la pandemia son escasas, por lo cual el objetivo de esta investigación es analizar el efecto de la transformación digital en la competitividad de las empresas antes de esta crisis. Los datos que se utilizaron para el análisis son de las Encuestas Nacionales sobre Productividad y Competitividad de las Pymes en Sectores Estratégicos en México. El análisis se realizó en dos partes: I. geoestadístico para buscar clústeres geográficos de corte natural y II. estadístico mediante la regresión Ridge. Los resultados evidenciaron que tanto la transformación digital como la competitividad se distribuyen de manera desigual en los territorios; sin embargo, se encontró un efecto positivo de la transformación digital en la competitividad de estas. De acuerdo con lo anterior, se concluyó que las empresas que quieran aumentar su competitividad deben incrementar su transformación digital, por lo que los gobiernos deben continuar estableciendo políticas y programas de transformación digital en todos los sectores y en forma más equitativa.

Este artículo se ha llevado a cabo con el objetivo de examinar la influencia de la tecnología en el liderazgo global en entornos empresariales digitalizados, centrándose en cómo las nuevas tecnologías amplifican las habilidades de los líderes y transforman su rol, contribuyendo así al éxito de las organizaciones a nivel global. Utilizando un enfoque cualitativo y un análisis teórico, se ha buscado comprender la relación entre resistencia al cambio, transformación digital y liderazgo global en entornos empresariales digitales, aplicando teorías como el Modelo de adopción de innovaciones de Everett Rogers, la Teoría del cambio organizacional de Kurt Lewin y el Modelo de liderazgo transformacional de Bernard Bass. Los resultados principales resaltan que la inteligencia artificial y la automatización tienen un impacto significativo en el mundo laboral, ofreciendo eficiencia y precisión, pero también plantean desafíos como la posible pérdida de empleos y la necesidad de desarrollar nuevas habilidades. En conclusión, se destaca la importancia de que los líderes comprendan y se adapten a los cambios tecnológicos, desarrollen habilidades digitales, promuevan la inteligencia emocional y consideren aspectos éticos en la implementación de tecnologías de inteligencia artificial, para liderar con éxito la transformación digital en las organizaciones en la era de la automatización y la inteligencia artificial.

Llevar a cabo la transformación digital de los parlamen­tos con éxito requiere sumarse al modelo de comparti­ción y reutilización de recursos tecnológicos entre las administraciones públicas. Se aborda la posibilidad de que las administraciones parlamentarias gocen de autonomía tecnológica total, reflexionando sobre su naturaleza, para concluir que dicha autonomía no es posible en la práctica puesto que existen interdependencias inherentes a la propia concepción de la tecnología. Se propone, por esto, una serie de recomendaciones para prever que un fallo informático pueda afectar a la actividad parlamentaria, con medidas preventivas y el establecimiento de planes alternativos. Señalando la necesidad de compartir tecnología entre administraciones, se presentan los distintos mecanismos que existen para ello, con ejemplos de las diferentes maneras de compartición: código fuente, infraestructuras, servicios, herramientas y datos. Finalmente, se habla de la posible evolución de la tecnología en la Administración parlamentaria gracias, en parte, a la ayuda de tecnologías disruptivas como la inteligencia artificial y sus recientes aplicaciones.

Introduction: Hospitals implement artificial intelligence, big data, and telehealth to accelerate digital transformation and improve quality standards. However, their corporate communication strategies remain very conservative (brochures, magazines, websites) and inconsistent with their ambitious organizational goals. Objective: This literature review-based paper analyzes how hospitals should use technology to revamp their online communication strategies and build more meaningful brands. Methodology: To do that, we conducted a literature review on digital hospitals, their branding strategies, and their stakeholders' humanistic needs. Based on that, we proposed an online communication model to help hospitals build credible brands. Conclusion: We concluded that these organizations should focus their communication efforts on sharing credible content that describes how their medical initiatives improve society; they should assist their stakeholders in enhancing their global understanding of healthcare; and they should help the Digital Communication Unit lead an intellectual reflection about how to develop a smart hospital from a technology and humanistic perspective.
