“…Scientists cited the experience of a Japanese university based on Eduinformatics. Cabrera et al (2023) described the experience of applying the transformational model of school digital sustainability to develop the professional identity of a teacher, and experimentally confirmed the feasibility of such an application. Del Castillo Castro et al ( 2023) conducted an experimental study on the application of a new digital transformation model for learning strategies in Education 4.0, successfully demonstrating its feasibility.…”

The development of digital educational resources is currently the primary task of IT specialists, which, in turn, is a component of the digital transformation of education in general. Since the digital transformation of education consists of the development of significantly new electronic resources for educational purposes, we have considered specific examples of the development of digital educational resources by students and analyzed their feasibility of development and use within the framework of the digital transformation of education. The article also shows how the involvement of students of IT majors in the development of such digital educational resources contributes to the improvement of their professional and linguistic competencies. At the same time, students reflect exactly their vision of learning a foreign language with the help of such tools, and all this contributes to the digital transformation of higher education.

“…Furthermore, students must acquire the competencies for systemic thought, collaboration and sustainability awareness (Ruslindawati et al, 2022;Vesterinen and Ratinen, 2023). Moreover, the teachers' competencies in improving their preparation (Cabrera et al, 2023;Daga et al, 2023). Another way to face sustainability has been from a conceptual posture from a conservational vision to an intergenerational one about the triple line of results (da Silva et al, 2023).…”

PurposeThis study aims to address the challenge of sustainability in Catholic schools quantitatively, even more so knowing that there are few systematized and quantitatively elaborated approaches that help to determine their sustainability dimensions. Therefore, this study aims to estimate the structural relationships of organizational sustainability in primary and secondary religious schools in Latin America based on the substantive functions of the school, such as care, upbringing and education from an organizational approach.Design/methodology/approachDeductive reasoning was used. In the preliminary phase, data were extracted from 420 educational leaders of primary and secondary schools in Latin America from the Lasallian Network, leading a school population of 200,500 students and impacting 166 schools; these previous results were again contrasted with the forthcoming literature with research from the Ramon Llull University, Barcelona, Spain, to achieve the sustainability framework, which has an endogenous variable called the school organizational sustainability framework.FindingsThe results reveal four dimensions of the first-order structural model: management, association, communication, well-being and curriculum, And eight second-order dimensions: governance, communication, resources, secular association, secular partnership, health, social commitment, and campus operation. The investigation results show that secular association and well-being are two dimensions that are constituted as the main elements of a sustainability framework for this type of organization.Research limitations/implicationsThe Catholic school has specific dimensions that need to be cared for with special attention, such as association, which comes from the laity and comes from the experience of the religious. In addition to this vital dimension, well-being, constituted as care for the people of the community, as care for all, is connatural to the religious school. Still, it is constituted by an edge that completes it, and that is the concern for the well-being of those outside regarding social justice. A limitation in the pretension of totality is that the study is conducted in a small portion of Catholic schools in Latin America.Practical implicationsA practical impact in the schools investigated is to present this sustainability framework as a reference to incorporate these dimensions as a strategy to bet on sustainability. Although the realities and contexts of the Latin American school are very different, some factors can impact low-income schools and schools with more significant financial resources if they are strengthened and worked on with dedication. In addition, this framework can lead to roads and the construction of indicators within the school, which can measure the sustainable commitment of the whole school. Finally, a clear finding of the framework is the need for good governance processes related to leadership and leaders' commitment to school-wide sustainability.Social implicationsThe present study impacts the depth that the proposal of the global educational pact can reach in the reality of Catholic schools in Latin America. The seriousness with which its leaders take the issue of sustainability from this perspective can contribute to the sustainability of life itself.Originality/valueThe originality of this research is that it constitutes the first Sustainability framework in Latin America in Catholic schools from an organizational approach.

Este artículo presenta un estudio en el que se mide la importancia para los docentes de los factores de sostenibilidad digital que facilitan o inhiben la adopción de app educativas como apoyo al proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la Educación Primaria. Se ha empleado una metodología basada en un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para realizar el análisis de importancia-valor (IPA). IPA tiene como objetivo identificar el valor asignado por los usuarios en términos de importancia y desempeño de una serie de criterios de calidad para obtener una medida indirecta de los elementos de sostenibilidad digital que fomentan o desincentivan la adopción app educativas. La muestra estuvo conformada por 212 docentes con experiencia en el uso de apps en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Los resultados muestran cuatro áreas de sostenibilidad digital que precisan mejora para garantizar un buen uso educativo y sostenible de las aplicaciones dentro y fuera del aula: uso seguro y transparente de datos y algoritmos, la adecuación de las app a la diversidad funcional de todos los estudiantes, la promoción de entornos colaborativos seguros y la necesidad de concienciación en materia de eficiencia energética
