Abstract

There is limited information on the academic performance obtained by teaching through an i4.0 educational system. Therefore, this article aims to close the gap by presenting the existing literature and the quantitative results obtained from the evaluations and surveys made to micro-entrepreneurs with little knowledge of digital technologies, and in many cases with different levels of education, who have been trained during the COVID-19 pandemic, between August and December 2020. The business training program used an i4.0 educational system based on IoT, the cloud, social networks and Web services. The results showed that the participants achieved a satisfactory academic performance and met the objectives of the training program in business-related topics. Likewise, the results established that the academic performance of the student in a business training program through an i4.0 system is not directly related to the student's previous educational level.

Highlights

There is little information on the academic performance acquired through an i4.0 educational system
A research that analyzed the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) indicated that the intensive use of social networks by students and the activities performed in personal learning environments influence academic performance, and the variable that mediates this relationship is the level of satisfaction of the design perception [46].On the other hand, Peiperl and Trevelyan [40] presented factors that affect a student's academic performance in business schools, as well as help to establish a possible hypothesis that age affects the academic performance.El Said [45] investigated the effect of the sudden switch from in-person learning to online distance learning due to the lockdown restrictions caused by the COVID-19
For the analysis of this study of knowledge acquired through an i4.0 educational system, we only considered Phase 2 of the program, in which more than 500 micro-entrepreneurs from all over the country have participated

Summary

INTRODUCTION

There is little information on the academic performance acquired through an i4.0 educational system. A research that analyzed the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) indicated that the intensive use of social networks by students and the activities performed in personal learning environments influence academic performance, and the variable that mediates this relationship is the level of satisfaction of the design perception [46].On the other hand, Peiperl and Trevelyan [40] presented factors that affect a student's academic performance in business schools, as well as help to establish a possible hypothesis that age affects the academic performance.El Said [45] investigated the effect of the sudden switch from in-person learning to online distance learning due to the lockdown restrictions caused by the COVID-19. Under these circumstances it is important to note that factors affecting the quantity and quality of online education include industry, govern– ments, laws, Information and Communication Techno– logies (ICT), Internet/mobile technology diffusion, income and the digital gap [42]
