  RESUMEN La investigación en el ámbito educativo mexicano ha cobrado fuerza en la última década. Las instituciones de educación superior (IES) se han convertido en las principales responsables frente a la sociedad de señalar caminos y proveer, tanto a mujeres como a hombres, de estrategias para encontrar información y procesarla para convertirla en conocimiento (Montaño, 200 , p. 5). De hecho, los procesos de profesionalización tanto de educadores como de formadores docentes se están viendo reflejados en los productos que generan, a saber, artí­culos de investigación, tesis de grado y documentos recepcionales. El presente artí­culo basado en la conferencia impartida en el Seminario de Investigación 2007 en la Universidad la Salle- Benavente (ULSA-B) tiene como objeto ayudar al lector a reflexionar acerca de los elementos metodológicos necesarios para llevar a cabo investigación, relacionados con tesis de maestrí­a y documentos recepcionales de las licenciaturas y postgrados de esta institución. Para lograr este objetivo, el texto contiene seis preguntas con sus respuestas. Cabe mencionar que estas preguntas surgieron de un sondeo realizado a los docentes asesores de documentos recepcionales de la ULSA-B a nivel licenciatura, principalmente. En dicho sondeo, los docentes externaron sus principales preocupaciones al asesorar a los  alumnos en el desarrollo de su documento recepcional. Sin  embargo,   la conferencia dictada sobre el tema y el presente artí­culo pretenden beneficiar a docentes y alumnos de nivel licenciatura y maestrí­a de la ULSA-B, así­ como, a alumnos de licenciaturas y maestrí­as en educación que se encuentren realizando investigación.       ABSTRACT Investigation in the Mexican educative scope has acquired strength in the last decade. The Higher Education Institutions  (IES) have become the main people in charge for society to indicate ways and to provide, as much to women as to men, of strategies to find information and process it to turn it into knowledge (Montaño, 2001, P. 5). In fact, the processes of professionalization as much of educators  as of educational trainers are being reflected in the  products they generate, that is to say, articles of investigation, theses of bachelor’s degree and degree documents. The present article based on the conference distributed in the Seminary of Investigation 2007 at La Salle University- Benavente (ULSA-B) takes as main objective to help the reader reflect about the methodological elements necessary to carry out investigation,  related to thesis of masters and degree documents of the bachelor’s and postgraduate programs of this Institution. In order to achieve this objective, the text contains six questions with their answers. It is important to add that these questions arose from a questionnaire mainly ap- plied to educational advisers of reception documents of the ULSA-B at bachelor’s degree level. In this questionnaire, advisers expressed their main concerns when assessing students in the development of their degree document. Nevertheless, the conference dictated on the topic and the present article try to benefit teach- ers and students from bacherlor’s and master’s degree from the ULSA-B, as well as, students of bachelor’s and master’s degree in Education who are currently doing research.

Family pension entitlement applies to children up to the age of 25. If the subject has reached this age in the last year of studies in a higher school, family pension entitlement extends until the end of studies. The problem is the interpretation of the phrase ‘in the last year of studies in a higher school’. It is unknown whether its meaning is limited only to the higher education (up to master’s degree) or whether it covers all forms of studies conducted by a higher school. Extending the meaning of this phrase shall cause the category of children entitled to the family pension to enlarge significantly, because entitled shall be those children who are students as well as those who take up postgraduate or doctoral studies. Such an interpretation seems to go too far. The conditions for acquiring the right to a family emolument after the deceased performing the profession of the judge also need to be specified.

Virtual learning systems (VLSs), commonly referred to as learning or course management systems, have been formally adopted at many higher education institutions. However, knowledge of the actual usage of VLSs is limited in terms of what specific functional and non-functional characteristics are deemed useful and how this influences system usage. Furthermore, little is known about the role of other non-system-related factors related to VLS usage, such as pedagogic, organisational, and individual difference factors. This chapter proposes and describes the virtual learning system usage model (VLSUM), which represents the factors influencing VLS usage in higher education institutions. The VLSUM is based on a conceptual framework integrating multiple dimensions and is confirmed by the results of an empirical study. A mixed-methods research design was adopted in the development of the VSLUM. This model is valuable to educational technologists, instructional designers, and software designers for VLS implementation in higher education.
