University Competencies through Integration of Digital Tools in Hybrid Mode

Abstract

The objective of this research was to determine the impact of digital tools in hybrid mode on the achievement of competencies in university students in Guayaquil during the year 2024, in accordance with Sustainable Development Goal 4, aimed at guaranteeing inclusive, equitable and quality education, promoting learning opportunities for all. It was developed under a quantitative, basic approach, with a non-experimental, correlational-causal and cross-sectional design. The sample was made up of 100 students of the Graphic Design career of the University of Guayaquil, selected through random probability sampling. The technique used was the survey, applied through a previously validated instrument and with adequate levels of reliability. The results showed that 41.0% of the participants were at a low level with respect to the use of digital tools in hybrid mode, 30.0% at a medium level and 29.0% at a high level, reflecting a predominance towards low levels, especially in the collaboration dimension, while the other dimensions showed a more balanced distribution. Likewise, goodness-of-fit and logistic regression tests indicated values of 0.319 (32%) according to Nagelkerke, 0.283 (28.3%) according to Cox and Snell and 0.152 (15.2%) according to McFadden, which confirms a moderate fit of the model and evidences its significant contribution compared to the null model in relation to the variable analyzed.
