The instrument demonstrated high reliability (Cronbachʹs α = 0.97). sample included students the Mexican public university system (n 235) studying pedagogy Results showed favorable perceptions technology use across representation (what learn), action expression (how engagement (why learn). They suggest expand capacity enhance skill development among context. However, it should be noted they need carefully integrated into frameworks tested their effectiveness; without such integration, application may ineffective or even counterproductive processes. demonstrate potential this practical theoretical to, line trends, contribute achievement SDG4, promoting all. will helpful institutions seeking implement technology-enhanced strategies while having broader implications body improving
