- Unpacking collective teacher efficacy in primary schools: student achievement and professional development(Springer, 2023) Lara, S. (Sonia); Salas-Rodríguez, F. (Fátima)Little is known about how teacher professional development helps enhance collective teacher efficacy so as to improve student performance. The present systematic review addresses two research questions, first by identifying 583 studies that may contribute pertinent information and then by performing in-depth analysis to eliminate those that did not meet our inclusion and quality criteria. After analyzing 18 studies, the results of this review confirm the impact of collective efficacy on student performance and highlight the importance of the role of principals in fostering a culture of trust and collaboration among school administrators and teaching staff.
- Google slides as digital group-portfolios to foster engagement in an executive education program(Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE), 2022) Levy, D. (Dan); Lara, S. (Sonia)The purpose is to present the potential of google docs as group digital portfolios in Executive Education Programs in online and in-person learning environments. Design/methodology/approach - First, we examine the research and different ways of using digital portfolios over the past twenty years and their potential for fostering learning. Second, we present the innovative use of Google Docs for implementing a group portfolio in online and in-person learning environments. And third, we argue how this use accomplishes almost the promise of eporfolio. Finding/originality/value - This paper provides meaningful implications for graduate schools and practitioners on improving students¿ engagement and self and co-regulation in an Executive Educational Program.

- An Assessment of the Impact of Social Networks on Collaborative Learning at College Level(Elsevier, 2012) Rodríguez-Chacón, V. (Victoria); Zárraga-Rodríguez, M. (Marta de); Lara, S. (Sonia); Rodríguez-Tejedo, I. (Isabel)This study considers the effect of the usage of a social network site (www.grouply.com) for a class related group project on the development of individual abilities and performance in group work. Data were collected from three sections of an intermediate macroeconomic class at a Spanish university and groups were randomly assigned to work (or not) using the social network. Findings suggest that, although students are in general attracted by the idea of using SNS in class-related team work, the introduction of a tool they are not familiar with may hamper their self-perceived level of competence in a number of skills.
- Mapeo sistemático de la literatura sobre la eficacia colectiva docente(2020) Lara, S. (Sonia); Salas-Rodríguez, F. (Fátima)En los últimos años, la eficacia colectiva docente se ha presentado como un factor prometedor en la mejora del rendimiento de los alumnos (Donohoo, 2017; Eells, 2011; Hattie, 2016). No obstante, a diferencia de las creencias de autoeficacia, la eficacia colectiva de los profesores ha sido menos estudiada. De ahí que el presente mapeo sistemático busque profundizar en el desarrollo y estudio de la eficacia colectiva docente en el ámbito académico, con el objetivo de conocer y sintetizar la información de diversas investigaciones con respecto a la temática en cuestión. Mediante la metodología del mapeo sistemático, se encontraron un total de 60 estudios potenciales publicados entre los años 2000 y 2019 e indexados en las bases de datos de Scopus y Web of Science. Tras la aplicación de los criterios de inclusión y exclusión sólo 35 artículos fueron incluidos. Los resultados muestran la distribución geográfica de los estudios, los artículos más citados, las variables con las que la eficacia colectiva docente se relaciona, los instrumentos utilizados para evaluar dichas creencias y los niveles educativos en los que han sido estudiadas. Se observa un claro interés en el estudio del impacto de la eficacia colectiva docente sobre el aprendizaje y rendimiento de los alumnos. No obstante, se echa en falta estudios sobre esta temática en países de habla hispana, además de investigaciones centradas en cómo fomentar y desarrollar la eficacia colectiva de los profesores. Finalmente, se proponen algunas futuras líneas de investigación.
- Fostering Communicative Competence and Motivation through ComunicARTE Program(2021) González-Torres, M.C. (María Carmen); García, S. (Sara); Lara, S. (Sonia); Zúñiga-Lacruz, A. (Ana)The objective of this article is to analyse the potential of ComunicARTE, an innovative Spanish Language teaching/learning program that uses project-based learning to develop dialogic spaces which promote the communicative competence of Spanish students, together with social, emotional and motivational outcomes. Two schools have been observed with this in mind: an experimental one using this program and a control one. This is a longitudinal study with pre-and post-test data which analyses 170 children at the beginning of their fifth year and the end of their sixth year in primary school. Quantitative tests have been used to assess their communicative competence and motivational orientation in the classroom. The results obtained are discussed.
- Not everything helps the same for everyone: relevance of extracurricular activities for academic achievement(2020) Lara, S. (Sonia); Benítez-Sastoque, E.R. (Edgar Ricardo); Balaguer-Estaña, A.J. (Álvaro J.); Albertos-San-José, A. (Aránzazu)Participation in organized Extracurricular Activities has contributed to improve academic achievement. However, this does not happen in the same way; it depends on sex, age, or parental educational level. Our objective is to know the importance of these factor interactions¿ in the explanation of academic achievement. The sample consisted of 1148 adolescents, aged between 12 and 18 years, 52% of whom were female. Participants completed the Extracurricular Activities questionnaire, and academic and sociodemographic data were collected. The results show that differences in academic achievement depend on the adolescent stage. In early adolescence, girls improve in academic achievement, as well as with better parental education, reading of books and activity duration. On the contrary, in the middle and late adolescence, academic achievement improves with not participating in collective sports and reduced activity breadth, although parental educational level follows the same trend as in the early adolescence. These results reinforce the evolutionary hypothesis of specialization in the choice of activities throughout adolescence. In this sense, some proposals for schools that advocate for greater integration of curricular and non-curricular elements are discussed.
