    (ELSEVIER, 2017) Ponce Jara, Marcos Antonio; Ruiz Larrocha, Elena; Gil Ortego, Rosario; Sancristóbal Ruiz, Elio; Pérez Molina, Clara María; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4450-4740
    The modern struggle to generate electricity reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions has found an ally in Smart Grid technology. This new trend involves a renewed perspective on how to generate, transmit, distribute and manage electricity networks, which not only helps to reduce power demand and cost, but can also improve efficiency, reliability, quality and security. This paper aims to study comprehensively the Smart Grid power system by comparing experiences and success stories from around the world. Developed countries, like the United States and those in the European Union, and developing countries, like India and Brazil, have been taken as examples of the current development and state of the Smart Grid concept. Europe and the U.S. lead the development of Smart Grids systems, while Brazil and India strongly depend on foreign technology and investment for their development in their countries. Climate change represents an extra challenge for developing countries, in addition to other issues related to economic and social advancement. Nevertheless, Smart Grids offer an array of possibilities and opportunities that work towards climate change international goals. However, state motivations and national energy resources limit the advancement of Smart Grids on this matter.

    European Robotics Week to introduce robotics and promote engineering
    (Wiley, 2018-06-28) Plaza, Pedro; Carro Fernandez, German; García Loro, Félix; Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; Sancristóbal Ruiz, Elio
    We present an activity framed within the European Robotics Week event. Robotics and computational practice are ideal tools for developing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pedagogy. A modular and adaptive hands-on workshop is described in detail. The workshop is based on multiplatform educational robotics content as a first step into the robotics world. Three educational tools are used to introduce examples of robotics applications. The operational details, materials, and examples of activities for selected modules are presented with the expectation that all teachers can adapt these activities to their classes. Despite the small number of students, the experience delivered results that might be useful for other instructors to promote workshops with similar or identical content to generate further benefits. This study demonstrates that it is important to combine theory and practice and include fun tasks that intertwine the challenges of applying theory to problem solving. Furthermore, the results show how the same content can be deployed using three different robotics education tools.

    Reviewing and analyzing peer review Inter-Rater Reliability in a MOOC platform
    (Elsevier, 2020-09) García Loro, Félix; Martín Gutiérrez, Sergio; Ruipérez Valiente, José A.; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; Sancristóbal Ruiz, Elio
    Peer assessment activities might be one of the few personalized assessment alternatives to the implementation of auto-graded activities at scale in Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) environments. However, teacher's motivation to implement peer assessment activities in their courses might go beyond the most straightforward goal (i.e., assessment), as peer assessment activities also have other side benefits, such as showing evidence and enhancing the critical thinking, comprehension or writing capabilities of students. However, one of the main drawbacks of implementing peer review activities, especially when the scoring is meant to be used as part of the summative assessment, is that it adds a high degree of uncertainty to the grades. Motivated by this issue, this paper analyses the reliability of all the peer assessment activities performed as part of the MOOC platform of the Spanish University for Distance Education (UNED) UNED-COMA. The following study has analyzed 63 peer assessment activities from the different courses in the platform, and includes a total of 27,745 validated tasks and 93,334 peer reviews. Based on the Krippendorff's alpha statistic, which measures the agreement reached between the reviewers, the results obtained clearly point out the low reliability, and therefore, the low validity of this dataset of peer reviews. We did not find that factors such as the topic of the course, number of raters or number of criteria to be evaluated had a significant effect on reliability. We compare our results with other studies, discuss about the potential implications of this low reliability for summative assessment, and provide some recommendations to maximize the benefit of implementing peer activities in online courses.

    (Wiley, 2021) Macho Aroca, Alejandro; García Teruel, Manuel; García Loro, Félix; Baizan, Pablo; Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Díaz Orueta, Gabriel; Gil Ortego, Rosario; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; Sancristóbal Ruiz, Elio; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3978-0692; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5454-456X; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5445-2377; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0117-8794; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6462-9196; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2102-977X
    Some engineering concepts have been proven to be very important not only in engineering degrees but in several areas. This knowledge is difficult to grasp under certain circumstances, and sometimes prior training is needed. This is a special challenge in full or part remote education. Simulations may help in this area, but truly experimental lab practices are crucial to grasp all the required knowledge and not only for fundamental information but for complex or indirect knowledge, where students can apply what they have learnt in classes. In this paper, we have worked on a concept to help professors and students to get new concepts in a more time-efficient and safe manner, using dynamic reconfiguration in Field-Programmable Analog Array. This solution can be easily applied to traditional or remote labs in less time than usual practices, so students can learn more in the same amount of time, especially when time is a constraint.

    MOOC-Based Flipped Classroom for On-Campus Teaching in Undergraduate Engineering Courses
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2023-06-22) Pertuz, Said; Reyes, Oscar; Sancristóbal Ruiz, Elio; Meier, Russell; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso
    Contribution: This work studies how to integrate massive open online courses (MOOC) into traditional, face-toface, undergraduate engineering courses. Background: Massive Open Online Courses emerged as an innovative trend in online learning with distinctive and attractive features, such as ease of access and cost-effectiveness for large audiences. For this reason, they have attracted a lot of attention for their potential in contributing to global challenges in contemporary engineering education. However, the integration of MOOCs into traditional, on-campus courses and programs in higher education remains an open problem. Research question: What is the most effective MOOC-blending strategy for traditional, on-campus engineering programs? Methodology: To answer this question, f irst a literature review was conducted on the utilization of MOOCs within face-to-face undergraduate education. Based on this literature review, this work advocates for the MOOC-based f lipped (MBF) classroom as the strategy with the highest potential for MOOC-based blending. The main pedagogical and design principles of this methodology are described and a case study is presented on a cohort of students (N=23) enrolled in a Digital Signal Processing course within an undergraduate Electronics Engineering program. This is a position paper based on evidence from the literature, but the case study is used to illustrate how the MBFdesign principles can be implemented in practice. Findings: The results suggest that the MBF methodology is a growing trend in undergraduate engineering education with the potential to facilitate student’s active learning in synchronous face-to-face sessions while fostering the adoption and usage of MOOCs.
