¿Cuál fue la última vez que cambiaste un punto de vista? Habitualmente preferimos el confort de nuestras convicciones que la debilidad de la duda. Las cámaras de eco y los filtros burbuja dan seguridad ante la confusión del desaprender. Es cierto que repensar no siempre lleva a modificar nuestras ideas. Pero cuando la solución a nuestros problemas requiere bisociación de ideas, esta actitud no ayuda. Hace años escribo fichas privadas con ideas que debería desaprender, especialmente en mi vida profesional. Y lentamente voy pasando de la nueva idea a su ejecución. Parte de ese esfuerzo se tradujo en 20 ideas para desprender en formato podcast que hicimos con Sylvia Villalba. Si tuviéramos la oportunidad de conversar como amigos, les podría llegar a decir que soy muy autocrítico con las convicciones pasadas.

Universities are trying new strategies — from entrepreneurship challenges to hunting and forestry — to increase the number of men in college, which has been declining steadily.
It's easy to get dismissive about educational theory. I've heard teachers say "Don't bother with the theory. Just focus on practical strategies." But when done well, theory can provide a roadmap and framework we can
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses are crucial for synthesizing evidence but are time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially during data extraction. To address this challenge, we developed MetaMate, an open-access web-based tool leveraging large language models (LLMs) for automated data extraction in educational systematic reviews and meta-analyses. MetaMate utilizes a hierarchical schema and divide-and-conquer approach in its extraction chain, and a from-global-to-local lens and example retriever in its verification chain. We evaluated MetaMate’s performance on 32 empirical studies, extracting 20 data elements related to participants and interventions. MetaMate achieved high precision, recall, and F1 scores, with performance comparable to human coders when benchmarked against an expert-defined gold standard. Notably, MetaMate demonstrated advanced mathematical reasoning and semantic comprehension, surpassing keyword-based approaches and avoiding common human errors. As the first LLM-powered data extraction tool designed specifically for educational research, MetaMate has the potential to significantly streamline the systematic review process and reduce time and effort for researchers. MetaMate is available at https://metamate.streamlit.app.

This article argues for exploring, connecting, and applying utopian imagination, speculative design, and planetary thinking as a way forward for higher education to reimagine and move towards more hopeful planetary futures. It examines hopepunk and solarpunk perspectives on possible futures to propose a design agenda for rewidening and rewilding higher education and educational technology with utopian imagination. Firstly, the article outlines and develops a framework for wider and wilder futures in higher education, emerging from utopian thinking and desire. Secondly, it connects hopepunk with speculative design and solarpunk with planetary design to highlight and put forward rebellious strategies of hope in envisioning more preferable futures. Thirdly, it approaches the field of educational technology within the context of wide and wild education to establish four planetary orientations concerning educational technology: Higher Education for, in, with, and by the world. Taken together, the article proposes a design agenda for educational technology that integrates utopian imagination and solarpunk practices with planetary educational technology to catalyse the development of more preferable futures in a more-than-human world.

Las sinergias neuronales en la inteligencia artificial (IA) se refieren a la manera en que los sistemas de IA se inspiran en el funcionamiento del cerebro humano para mejorar su eficiencia y capacidad de aprendizaje. La sinapsis, que es la conexión entre las neuronas en el cerebro, ha sido un modelo para el diseño de redes neuronales artificiales, que son la base de muchos algoritmos de IA.
Una de las formas más prominentes es a través de la modelización de las redes neuronales artificiales, que se basan en la estructura y funcionamiento de las redes neuronales biológicas en el cerebro humano:

Cuando se quiere realizar una transformación, lo primero que hay que saber es en qué consiste, qué la diferencia de otras cosas que se limitan a inyectar dinero en un sector, se focalizan en un proyecto estrella y no realizan las modificaciones de fondo que se pretendían. La transformación digital exige reflexionar acerca de cuáles son los problemas, qué estructuras deben ser transformadas digitalmente y de qué modo implica a las personas, los actores y las instituciones correspondientes. No olvidemos que el verdadero sujeto de la transformación digital es la sociedad; lo que hay que transformar digitalmente es la sociedad, no el Estado.
