Model for the Evaluation of the EDUCOM-DIGITAL Project Effectiveness at the Santa Elena Peninsula State University Based on Plithogenic OffSet by Paola Elizabeth Cortez Clavijo, Mishelle Adriana Flores Friend, Lilibeth Alexandra Orrala Soriano, Cynthia Nataly Espíndola Vásquez, Sandra Betzabeth Maldonado López, Karla Estefanía Suarez Mena, César Teodoro Arízaga Sellan, Gerzon Alfredo Cochea Panchana

“…However, their implementation at the SEPSU will allow these postulates to be tested in a real-life context, evaluating how the use of audio resources influences the acquisition of knowledge and the development of communication skills in the university community. This paper aims to propose an evaluative model for the effectiveness of this project, but this implies overcoming two challenges, which are: (1) The presence of several variables of different origins that are based on subjective perceptions and therefore present uncertainty and indeterminacy; (2) The need for a measurement scale that is sufficiently expressive of the different possible evaluations to be carried out. …”
