About the Journal

Current Issue
Vol. 9 No. 1 (especial) (2026): Research from the Classroom
This first special edition arises from a collaboration with the Costa Rica Institute of Technology, with the support of Cynthia López Valerio from the Academic Evaluation Office, who served as co-editor. The publication of five extended posters was coordinated, prepared by students from the TEC Computer Engineering program, presenting the results obtained from research conducted in the classroom.
The cover image of this special edition reinforces the thematic coherence with innovation and the transformation of knowledge. It employs a contemporary visual language characteristic of today’s scientific ecosystem and functions as a metaphor for academic production grounded in human–machine collaboration, as it was created by the editor and graphic designer Ana Isabel Hernández González, with assistance from ChatGPT (version 5.2).
