Overview

Dr. Sigfredo Fuentes is an associate professor in Digital Agriculture, Food and Wine Sciences (DAFW) at the School of Agriculture, Food and Ecosystem Sciences (SAFES) in the Faculty of Science at The University of Melbourne, Australia. In addition, Sigfredo Fuentes is the international coordinator of the Vineyard of The Future initiative (VoF), which is an international collaboration that strives to establish a fully instrumented vineyard that uses the Internet of Things (IoT) for data capture and meaningful analysis of climate change in viticulture and enology in Australia, to transfer these technologies to all agricultural sectors.

He has over 30 projects and 216 scholarly works, both active and completed. He is working on two major projects: “Deep learning modeling for hyperspectral imagery” funded by the Australian Government Department of Defence and the Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space (P4S), which has the goal to develop plants to support long-term space missions to the Moon (2030) and Mars (2040) with the NASA.

His research efforts focus on the application of technology to plant physiology and viticulture, as well as in the areas of irrigation science, irrigation scheduling, remote sensing, and climate change. His work also focuses on the development of computer programs for agricultural research and applications, the creation of new methodologies to assess plant physiology and growth using image analysis and technology, and the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) in agricultural, food, animal, and wine sciences.

Sigfredo Fuentes joined Tecnológico de Monterrey as a Distinguished Visiting Professor in Digital Agriculture and Food Sciences for the School of Engineering and Sciences.

Conoce el programa

¿Qué es?

Voluntariado por la Educación es un programa de desarrollo docente ofrecido al profesorado de Educación Media Superior y Superior del Sector Público, principalmente, derivado de una colaboración entre el Tec de Monterrey y Arizona State University.

El programa busca que las y los docentes implementen lo aprendido en este curso en las clases que imparten. Aplicando técnicas como el “aula invertida” y las metodologías activas promueven el aprendizaje activo, involucrando y motivando a sus estudiantes a aprender por sí mismos.

FORMA DE TRABAJO

El Programa consta de tres cursos con una duración de 40 horas cada uno.
Cada curso se imparte de forma asíncrona durante 4 semanas, con un webinar semanal a través de Zoom y actividades calendarizadas semanalmente, para garantizar el avance y cobertura de los materiales, así como entrega de evidencias.
Hay un proyecto final en el segundo curso, que integra los conocimientos aprendidos de los dos primeros cursos. El cual sirve al docente para llevarlo directo a aplicarlo en su aula, de acuerdo con la materia que haya elegido.
Los docentes llevan un acompañamiento de un o una mentor voluntario a lo largo del programa.
Se require de una calificación mínima de 80 en cada curso.
El certificado de participación, se entregará una vez acreditado el segundo curso.
El acceso al tercer curso es por medio de una invitación del programa del voluntariado por la educación a los estudiantes que hayan alcanzado un promedio mínimo de 85.
El tercer curso se imparte una vez al año y se invita a los candidatos calificados, de dos generaciones anteriores.

DR. RAFAEL RANGEL SOSTMANN

Es el creador original, autor principal e impulsor del Programa de Desarrollo Docente y del Voluntariado por la Educación, como una contribución a su país y a la sociedad. En 2021, a partir de un convenio de colaboración entre el Tecnológico de Monterrey y la Arizona State University se arranca con la formación de mentores voluntarios y desde entonces se han ofrecido 6 ediciones del programa, en las que han participado continuamente instituciones educativas públicas de todo el país y han recibido el acompañamiento del Voluntariado por la Educación. Hasta 2011, trabajó por 44 años para el Tecnológico de Monterrey de los cuales 26 fue rector. Desde el 2011 hasta el 2021 el Dr. Rangel laboró para Arizona State University, como Presidential Professor of Practice for Education Innovation y como asesor especial del Presidente en ASU. A partir del año 2022, da su tiempo filantrópica y colaborativamente con un grupo de profesionistas denominado Voluntariado por la Educación.

NUESTROS VOLUNTARIOS

Es un equipo de personas de distintas formaciones y trayectorias, que ofrecen su talento, tiempo y experiencia de forma altruista para dar soporte al Programa de Desarrollo Docente, buscando apoyar a la educación de México. Nuestro equipo se ha consolidado y sigue creciendo con voluntarios comprometidos que se han capacitado en el uso de la metodología propuesta por el programa para acompañar a los docentes en cada edición que se ha ofrecido. De este equipo depende en parte, el éxito, seguimiento y acompañamiento a los docentes participantes.

Existe una transferencia bidireccional de conocimiento, primero cuando cada voluntario apoya a los docentes en su desarrollo durante su paso por el programa, buscando contribuir en mejorar la experiencia de aprendizaje de los alumnos de la institución educativa a la que pertenece cada docente. Asimismo, busca crear lazos y un mayor compromiso de quienes conforman al Voluntariado por la Educación, desarrollándose de una forma diferente en lo personal y profesional, apoyando en el mentoreo.

Testimonios

"El programa me ayudó a adentrarme en las tecnologías de la información, la comunicación, así como el uso y aplicación de éstas en el aula para facilitar el aprendizaje en nuestros alumnos"

Armando Castillo
Docente CBTIS 215 Loreto, Zacatecas

"Con sinceridad puedo decir que este curso promueve al docente a crear estrategias de diseño instrumental, elegir contenidos relevantes de las asignaturas e implementar la tecnología a favor de la educación con un solo interés: el del brindarle a nuestros alumnos una mejor enseñanza"

María Beatriz Maldonado
Docente de la Escuela Superior de Rehabilitación, Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación, CDMX

"Quiero reconocer la importancia que tiene este curso, el cual nos ha enseñado diversas estrategias como el modelo híbrido utilizando el aula invertida. Desde mi punto de vista esta es una excelente opción y da muy buenos resultados ya que involucra a los estudiantes a participar en su aprendizaje"

Alberto Suarez
Docente CECYT 7 Cuauhtémoc, IPN CDMX

"Este curso me permitió reflexionar sobre mi práctica docente, entender que el rol tradicional del profesor ha quedado en el pasado, que debemos fomentar el aprendizaje activo en nuestros alumnos para que ellos se responsabilicen de su propia educación y que puedan llevarse aprendizajes significativos dentro de su formación académica.

Estoy muy contenta y agradecida con el curso por que aprendí nuevas tecnologías y estrategias que de ahora en adelante implementaré en mi práctica docente."

Cecilia Velázquez
Docente Preparatoria No. 6 del Estado, Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas

Hambre cero

Hambre Cero is a Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) established by the United Nations. This initiative seeks to reduce food poverty and food waste by 2030.

By 2022, it has been detected that more than 24 million people in Mexico live in food poverty.

Tecnológico de Monterrey is an institution of society for society and that is why we join in the development of these objectives, promoting actions that have a significant impact. By 2023, we committed to collecting 80 tons of beans, rice and oil to donate to banks that are part of the National Food Bank Network.

Hunger is not the problem, people are the solution.

JOIN

In Mexico there are more than 25 thousand tons of tomatoes left over, enough to build 10 times the Latin tower.

Help us get food to those who need it most.
