Capacidad de indagación científica del profesorado de primaria en formación: efectos del género y de la formación previa
2022
El objetivo principal de este trabajo fue determinar el nivel de competencia en indagación científica del profesorado de primaria en formación inicial. Otros objetivos fueron analizar la influencia del género y de los estudios previos al acceso a la Universidad de este profesorado sobre los diversos elementos de la indagación científica, y evaluar cuáles de estos elementos resultan de mayor dificultad. Para ello, se administró un cuestionario de indagación científica a 178 estudiantes españoles del Grado en Maestro/a en Educación Primaria. De las puntuaciones obtenidas en el cuestionario y de las pruebas estadísticas llevadas a cabo se puede concluir que: a) la capacidad de indagación cient…
Executives' role in digital transformation
2022
This conceptual paper revisits and updates the concept of top management support (TMS), which has been the long-established rationale for explaining the role of top managers in digitalization activities. In our view, the concept of TMS is grounded in technological determinism, accounts for attitudinal and behavioral aspects that appear to be little more than exhortation and accepts the occasional responsibility of top managers in technology management. We consider both the crucial role that top managers may play in the digitalization process and the fact that digital technologies have become pervasive in today’s organizations. Then, we develop a model by which top managers and digital techn…
Fostering university-industry collaborations through university teaching
2019
Unversity-industry links and their impact on innovation processes have been widely acknowledged. However, previous studies have mainly examined university-industry knowledge transfer activities from the perspective of the research and third stream missions. This paper goes a step further, analysing such processes from the perspective of the university’s teaching mission. More specifically, it explores how educational crowdsourcing platforms help bring universities and industry together to develop joint activities in undergraduate and graduate programmes. Nine platforms with different business models were examined. A qualitative exploratory approach was adopted to manually collect and analys…
University–industry partnerships for the provision of R&D services
2015
Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs) are the main institutions responsible for the establishment of university–industry partnerships. R&D contracts exemplify the indirect mechanisms through which enterprises and universities collaborate on a win–win basis. This study addresses organizational and institutional aspects that act as drivers for the establishment of successful university–industry partnerships. First, a series of regression models explain the determinants of R&D contracts. These models include two main dimensions: the university and the technology transfer office. Second, further analysis empirically explores whether universities in regions with a favorable environment enjoy greate…
Can a magic recipe foster university spin-off creation?
2015
This study examines factors that explain the creation of university spin-offs. The study focuses on mechanisms that technology transfer offices (TTOs) and universities employ to foster spin-offs. These mechanisms include technology transfer activities that support spin-offs, normative frameworks, support infrastructures (i.e., business incubators and science parks), and TTO staff's specialist technical skills. The analysis also differentiates between public and private universities. Spin-offs belong to one or more of the following groups: spin-offs with support from the university's TTO, spin-offs operating under a license agreement, and spin-offs in which the TTO or university holds equity…
