This essay reevaluates the role of reflection in experiential learning programs, contrasting traditional solitary ref lection methods with contemporary approaches that integrate collaboration and multimodal expression. These new approaches highlight a shift toward more flexible and interactive methods, reflecting the influence of new technologies…

As design becomes more oriented towards strategy, services and systems, design learning is no longer something apprentices can develop only with masters' input and critique. Further, the experimentation and reflection commonly occurring inside studio-based education is insufficient. Real-world or live projects offer an alternative to learning…

This narrative review is the first to focus on how young people themselves express their experiences of participation in ecological restoration projects, as a guide to creating projects that engage them effectively. It gathers 10 qualitative and mixed-method studies that document young people's experiences through observations, interviews, focus…

This dissertation investigates how collective process-oriented documentation tools, combined with Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, can enhance knowledge construction in hands-on, open-ended learning environments, such as makerspaces. Through a three-year design-based research, the study developed and tested a collective documentation…

This qualitative study examined how seven graduate students became prepared to teach in an unfamiliar online PBL environment through an experiential professional development program. During the 75-hour preparation program, graduate instructors completed readings and practice activities, immersed themselves in the student perspective, and completed…

Purpose: This paper aims to propose and evaluate an innovative approach to education for sustainable consumption (ESC) which empowers teenagers and young adults to improve sustainable consumption competences. This approach combines pedagogical learning approaches such as real-world learning (e.g. experiential learning and research-based learning)…

The need for computer science (CS) education, especially computer network education, is increasing. However, the challenges of teaching students with diverse backgrounds and engaging them in hands-on activities to apply theories into practices exist in CS education. The study addressed the challenges by using project-based learning (PBL) and…

Service learning has evolved into one of the prominent experiential learning pedagogies used in engineering. Nonetheless, educators lack a comprehensive review that encompasses the full literature in engineering education. This review analysed 837 Scopus-indexed documents published between 1995 and 2023. Descriptive analysis revealed a steadily…

Collaboration is not a core practice in humanities teaching and learning, despite convincing arguments that it should be. To encourage collaboration in classrooms and with communities, DePaul University has developed its Experiential Humanities Collaborative. The Collaborative connects faculty, community partners, and students to co-design and…

STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) learning is designed to contextualize the abstract concepts of science in chemistry learning. Integration STEAM in chemistry learning needs a learning model to help students understand real-world problems. For this reason, STEAM-PBL (Project Based Learning) was employed. This paper…

Agency is a core pedagogical goal of the maker education movement. However, there are still many unknowns about how agency is identified in maker settings. To document maker educator professional visions of agency, we conducted video-cued interviews with eleven U.S-based maker educators using video clips of families making in a drop-in…

The purpose of this Action Research study is to examine the current teaching methods in the virtual education setting and see how professional ideologies of educators may be influenced when introduced to new knowledge. The current education model heavily favors preparing for standardized tests, which the researcher contends is not an accurate…

The aim of this article is to provide a model for assessing service-learning projects mediated by a stakeholder approach to managing such educational pursuits. The method used for substantiating this proposal consists of matching the process of stakeholder analysis, customised for experiential learning, with the project scope and monitoring…

Background: Implementing maker education in schools is on the rise, fuelled by its potential to move formal education towards a creative, technology-driven 21st century learning culture. In maker education, collaborative learning takes place through and around various digital and traditional technologies, which provide the means for students'…

Purpose: This study aims to propose a service-dominant logic (S-DL)-informed framework for teaching innovation in the context of human--computer interaction (HCI) education involving large industrial projects. Design/methodology/approach: This study combines S-DL from the field of marketing with experiential and constructivist learning to enable…
