Este artículo presenta los resultados de un caso de estudio sobre el desarrollo de un manual de procedimientos como
herramienta pedagógica para la gestión editorial competitiva de la revista Prisma Tecnológico de acuerdo con los
requerimientos de la norma ISO 9001 en la Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá. La metodología usada fue estudio de
caso que correspondió a los procedimientos, guía e instructivos del sistema de gestión de la calidad institucional. Por
efectos de extensión, se presenta uno de los 4 procedimientos desarrollados: procedimiento para selección y elaboración
de las entrevistas a personalidades del mundo de la ciencia, tecnología y cultura. Los resultados incluyeron un análisis
estadístico de medidas de tendencia central y variación de los artículos publicados en el periodo de 2019-24 y el plan
general para la implementación del plan de trabajo. Estos resultados abarcan aspectos como cronograma propuesto,
detalle de las actividades de la fase de implementación, el desarrollo de los planes de la calidad, de la gestión de riesgos,
de comunicaciones y finalmente el plan de divulgación de este proyecto. Finalmente, se presenta las conclusiones y
recomendaciones de trabajos futuros.

According to Unicef, in 2019, 33 million children were international migrants. This situation has been intensified due to Covid-19 pandemic. Among the reasons to leave a country, we can find poverty, climate change, economic reasons or the hope of having a better life.
Migrant children in school age can face many challenges: language barriers, lack of understanding of social norms, limited resources from the school, and psychosocial issues. These challenges can produce long-lasting psychological and physical effects leading to a halt on the developing of their full potential along their life. So, an early intervention is crucial to boost migrant children’s educational language acquisition and understanding of culture and social norms to their educational achievement.
This paper discusses the advantages of mlearning to foster language learning and facilitate a cultural integration by migrant children with the support of translanguaging strategies and intercultural approach.
The role of mlearning to foster language learning has been discussed by Azevedo-Gomes & Sartor-Harada (2020) with a mlearning model with four guidelines: the construction of meaning, the interaction between peers, a focus on previous experiences, and formative feedback. Mlearning seeks to integrate learning theories, especially constructivist and behavioral theories to also create collaborative working environments (Crompton, Burke & Gregory, 2017). Despite the fact the design is focused to improve a minority language, the concepts about psycholinguistic factors are similar to migrant children's needs. Furthermore, mlearning allows to involve parents in language instruction and provide flexible education pathways, both considered good policy practices by OECD (2021) to support the lifelong integration of immigrant children.
The report examines the role of an intercultural approach with the support of translanguaging strategies. The first one considers the child’s heritage and could help to expand awareness towards both cultures in gamified activities. Plus, translanguaging strategies “leverages the fluid language of learners in ways that deepen their engagement and comprehension of complex content and texts” (García & Vogel, 2017, p.2) and could help children to transfer language competencies to a new language, speeding up their target language learning and fostering their self-esteem by valuing their previous knowledge. The authors base their assumptions on the thesis that the formula translanguaging and intercultural approach can contribute to a positive mixed identity construction. Finally, the authors present their strategy for gamified activities with mlearning support including translanguaging strategies and intercultural approach in order to ease integration and a full educational achievement of migrant children.

Conventional IP networks connect places at great distances and meet the connectivity needs of their users. To perform each of these operations, each packet must pass through various network devices, which make individual routing decisions that make centralized network management difficult. These networks have been growing both in size and complexity, each day at a higher rate, which has generated a series of difficulties in personalization, integration, security, and optimization of these. As a solution, the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) architecture [1] was created, which promises to be a dynamic, manageable, profitable and adaptable architecture, thus becoming an ideal tool to handle large bandwidths and the development and implementation of customized applications, for different types of needs on communication networks. This document shows a performance analysis between SDN and a conventional IP network configured with the EIGRP and BGP routing protocols, establishing a configuration scenario with physical network equipment and with an SDN emulator called Mininet. The research methodology is based on the guidelines of the Cisco PPDIOO methodology and is developed in the following phases: 1. Elaboration of physical network topology with Cisco equipment, performing experiments with IPv4 and IPv6, measuring variables such as Jitter, Delay and Throughput. 2. Carrying out the same experiments and tests with SDN, in a network topology with similar characteristics to those already mentioned, but with OpenFlow switches. 3. Analysis of results, for which the behavior of jitter, delay and throughput variations of both scenarios is examined to make a series of comparisons (made with statistical analysis) concerning protocol, addressing, packet size among others. Finally, it was obtained as a result that SDN has a lower delay and jitter than the conventional IP network in some cases, as well as a more favorable throughput.

El sistema propuesto permite hacer un análisis comparativo de los diferentes proyectos participantes en eventos de invención, innovación y creatividad, basados en sus características de calidad en uso, funcionalidad y usabilidad, mediante un plan de métricas externas y de calidad en uso. El modelo está basado en normas internacionales (ISO/IEC 9126, 14598, IEEE 1061) y modelos mexicanos (MECHDAV), y software propuesto, es desarrollado en un ambiente visual WEB, para dispositivos móviles (tabletas), permiten evaluar genéricamente la calidad de los proyectos-productos-servicios que participan en los concursos mencionados; este sistema proporciona un soporte a las personas evaluadoras (jurados) para emitir dictámenes imparciales con mayor precisión cuantitativa. Este sistema está dirigido a organizaciones, empresas y usuarios finales que necesiten seleccionar, fácilmente, los proyectos desarrollados con más calidad, para ser los ganadores en estos concursos. Se proporciona una guía para la instrumentación concreta de la evaluación, así como sus rangos, la presentación, procedimientos y documentación. Palabras clave: modelo de calidad, evaluación técnica de proyectos-productos; concurso de creatividad, calidad en uso, métricas externas.
