“…Consequently, it is vital to improve access to educational technologies and reduce gaps in use and literacy. A multi-disciplinary approach is required to deploy technological ecosystems that favor blended or online training, teacher and student training for the efficient use of educational technologies, and policies for both government and academic leaders to define strategies and manage uncertain scenarios [4,5,8]. In the context of educational data access, it is critical to ensure transparency, ethics, and individuals' rights.…”

The objective of the session is to establish a collaborative dynamic that allow the participant to work in a CO-THINKING and CO-CREATION dynamics. We want to share and develop ideas, concepts, keywords, projects (finished, in progress and/or maybe in an initial state) in order to establish a CONCEPTUAL MAP that relates in an initial and dynamic Eco-System, the main approaches, techniques, systems or methodologies that can improve the processes in progress of the attendance.

“…In today's society, where we have chosen to include the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) [12], it is common to bet on the creation of intelligent systems in various sectors, which usually have positive effects and generate inclusive social models making cities more attractive for their citizens [15] [11] and because their presence and impact is growing, it is important to take advantage of the opportunities that offers us [20]. It is in this kind of environments where crowdsourcing has become a very important tool for the search of solutions based on the information provided by the community and the enrichment through the generated interactions [21], in such way that it becomes a useful way to capture information, synthesize it and generate knowledge related to different social problems [7].…”

This article gives a general review of the presence of crime in today's society, its impact in the daily life of the citizens and proposes the use of Safe Paths, a mobile application focused on risk prevention based on social collaboration and cooperative learning to identify dangerous areas and give alerts based on their users' location and the risks around to them. It also describes some technical aspects of Safe Paths such as its architecture from the MVC approach; the use cases and actors involved in said application and finally shows its graphical user interface.

Recent advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs) have fostered the development of new methods and tools for exploring the increasingly large amounts of data that come from pedagogical domains [1][2][3][4][5]. These data have the potential to transform education into a personalized experience [6, 7] that meets the needs of each individual student [8]. Educational data research is becoming highly relevant in massive online courses [9], especially MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) [10-13] and SPOCs (Small Private Online Courses) [14][15][16]. Educational data are also the basis for learning analytics [17][18][19], with an increasing focus on the way educational data are presented [20][21][22], how users interact with the data [23][24][25][26], and data privacy and security [27][28][29][30].There are many types of data that can support student's learning [31], but the type and nature of the data, how they can be accessed, and who can access them, vary significantly. Whether educational data are collected from collaborative learning environments [32][33][34], course management systems [35,36], gamified training applications [37,38], or administrative systems from schools and universities [39-41], valuable properties, patterns, and insights often emerge. When combined with other factors such as timing and context, these factors play an important role in understanding how students learn [42], the settings in
