Engineering Contributions to a Multicultural Perspective of the Knowledge Society

Last November 2013, a new conference about technological ecosystems for enhancing multiculturality (TEEM) was held at the University of Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain, connected with a new Ph.D. program about education in the knowledge society. This Ph.D. program and the TEEM conference present an interdisciplinary and multicultural approach to the challenges and solutions of problems in the knowledge society. Engineering, more specifically, software and computer engineering, plays a very outstanding role in this conference and Ph.D. program. We want to thank the IEEE REVISTA IBEROAMERICANA DE TECNOLOGIAS DEL APRENDIZAJE with for its support to this project and the opportunity to select a couple of papers from the TEEM conference to be extended in this issue.
