We present the second issue of the INNOVACADEMIA journal, which includes two research articles, a review article, and three essays. The first research article identifies strengths and areas for improvement in distance education, highlighting the importance of self-assessment to enhance student learning. The second research article analyzes the impact of the implementation of the Assessment for Learning Pathway (ALP) in neuropractices to improve academic performance among students at a university in Colombia. The third review article presents previous research on the role of micro-credentials in teachers' professional development, promoting flexibility and personalized learning.

An essay related to critical thinking in university students follows, which examines this essential transversal competency in the students’ holistic education. This is followed by an essay on the role of education in promoting sexual health, focusing on proposals to reduce unwanted pregnancies among young people and prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Finally, an essay is presented that addresses the benefits of language models as tools to support the analysis of teacher performance evaluation using generative artificial intelligence.

With this valuable diversity of contributions to education, we acknowledge and appreciate the efforts of the collaborators who made this issue possible. Similarly, we express our gratitude to the authorities at the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León for their support at every stage of the editorial process, thus reaffirming our commitment to the dissemination of knowledge that strengthens educational innovation.
