Strengthening Experiential Learning: Innovative Virtual Engagement Strategies of Community Education Organizations

Abstract

This study focused on the impact of COVID-19 on K-12 access to community education organizations such as museums, theaters, and art studios. Participants from five community education organizations were interviewed to explore and understand their experiences of developing and promoting virtual resources. While each organization responded differently, three approaches for adaptation and innovation were critical: existing virtual presence, collaboration, and responding to e-learning fatigue. Organizations found that the leveraging of technology in the short term may enhance K-12 access to their resources in the future.

Roles and challenges of innovation, industry 4.0, and sustainability competencies development in engineering students

“…Diversos estudios encontrados en la literatura abordan la necesidad y ventajas de incluir currículos basados en metodologías activas que promuevan las competencias en innovación. Estas incluyen el desarrollo de comunidades educativas entre docentes [98], [99], desarrollo de aulas de clases inclusivas [100], [101], entre otros. La literatura muestra que la mayoría de estos estudios han sido enfocados en la perspectiva de los docentes, y las estrategias que pueden ser aplicadas por estos para lograr estas competencias en los estudiantes [100], [102]- [104].…”
