INNOVATION AND DIGITAL COMPETENCES IN LATIN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES

Abstract

The objective of the study was to analyze the influence of innovation in the development of digital competences of university students in two Latin American universities, one in Mexico and the other in Ecuador. To do this, a descriptive research was carried out, whose research subjects were a sample of students from all levels of administrative careers from the participating universities. The research instrument was applied in April 2025 and it consisted of a questionnaire from the UNAM called TICómetro, where the results reflect that the levels of digital skills are independent of the level of access to technological means.
