Abstract

The pandemic directly impacted the educational system by moving from the traditional classroom to the electronic blackboard. In this transition process, an educational habitus emerged that consisted of facing the health, economic, social and educational crisis in a self-management of opportunities. In this sense, the search for information was a fundamental tool to promote self-knowledge. The objective of the present was to establish the reliability and validity of an instrument that measures the intention to search for information in digital networks with a non-probabilistic selection of 253 students from a public university in the State of Mexico. The results show the establishment of eight factors among which the intention to select information explained 21% of the total variance. Lines of research are noted regarding the construction of an agenda with central information processing axes and issues to anticipate discussion scenarios and shared agreements. In relation to the state of knowledge in which stigma prevails towards the proximity of people and distancing as well as confinement as central strategies of anti-COVID-19 policies, the establishment of an agenda focused on the self-management of knowledge is recommended. The management, production and transfer of knowledge is recommended from the self-management of resources and opportunities, as well as from the interrupted collaboration between the parties involved in the public education system.
