DEVELOPMENT OF INVESTIGATIVE SKILLS FOR DIGITAL MEDIA IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Abstract

Research and technology are fundamental in the academic environment. This study aims to evaluate digital media research skills among university students. A systematic review was carried out following the PRISMA protocol guidelines, ensuring reliable data was obtained and minimizing bias. After examining 413 investigations in databases such as Scielo, Science Direct, DOAJ and Google Scholar, 22 were selected for the final analysis. The results indicate a low level of research skills in higher education. Furthermore, the importance of using technology as a support tool is highlighted, not as a replacement for the teacher's role. Recognizing this duality, a balanced approach is promoted that takes advantage of the advantages of technology while preserving the essence of traditional teaching.
