Formative research in frame with the SDG-4 of the 2030 Agenda at Ixtapaluca Institute of Technological Studies

Abstract

Technological innovations direct to international education, referred to in the 2030 plan in the third sustainable development goal: quality education. In this work, it excels the concept of formative research that has three axes: teaching, researching, and society during the university level because it develops in the learner’s abilities of interpreting, analysis, and synthesis. The objective in the present work was to analyze the educative research in the Ixtapaluca Institute of Technological Studies (TESI) and to determine if it corresponds to an administrative process with the general theory of systems as methodology. The results show that the TESI realizes the three phases of a system: entrance, process, and exit, and also gives constant feedback as needed. Accepting that in the TESI the entrants are the new entry students, the process has three curricular matters and the residency project. The exit is the student with elements to use them in society in the work field. The conclusion was that the TESI student gets basic elements of research in his major. The recommendation is to emphasize the formative process as a student researcher and to do more promotion of the residency process to increase the number of students in it.
