PEINADO CAMACHO, José de Jesús. Use of digital tools and research skills in postgraduate students. Conrado [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.92, pp. 8-17.  Epub 30-Jun-2023. ISSN 1990-8644.

The objective of this research was to determine which digital tools are most used by postgraduate students in advanced technology and their relationship with research skills. The approach was quantitative. The type of research was descriptive with an exploratory scope. The study population was made up of students from the Postgraduate Program in Advanced Technology of the Technological Research and Innovation Center of the National Polytechnic Institute, with which a probabilistic and stratified sample was constructed. To obtain the information, a questionnaire with multiple choice questions was developed and applied online. The results showed that the most used digital media to obtain information were databases and specialized internet search engines. The resources that were used the most were electronic research journals. The most used bibliographic reference managers were Mendeley and Word. The main digital tools to store information in the cloud were Google Drive, OneDrive and Dropbox. It is concluded that the implications of this research support the purpose of guiding the efforts of academics, researchers, and educational institutions, to address and reinforce digital skills in postgraduate study plans and programs.
