Challenge-Based Learning for Active Learning in Industrial Engineering Education

This chapter delves into the design of active learning activities for competence development in industrial engineering students through challenge-based learning (CBL). A learning challenge, as a purposeful experience, is proposed to expose students to real-world situations through experiential learning (EL). Around a challenge, tutors and students collaborate with an organization as an educational partner to develop alternative solutions in line with their intended learning outcomes. A case study is presented to exemplify the development of active learning activities within a CBL and EL framework that supports authentic assessment (AA) in a group of industrial engineering aggregated courses at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico. The learning challenge provides promising results for the satisfactory development of student competences and the AA of their learning outcomes. However, limitations do exist concerning difficulties in the design and implementation process, which require further work. ©The authors ©Emerald.

Introduction to Active Learning and Authentic Assessment: Concepts and Applications

This chapter describes the intentions and content of this handbook. This chapter also introduces the two main concepts addressed in this handbook: “Active learning” and “authentic assessment.” Concerning the latter concept, this chapter suggests a spectrum of authentic assessment, linked to different active learning approaches, from approaches highly immersive with real-world tasks to approaches with more simulated or contrived environments. This spectrum may help module designers identify which kind of active learning approach for authentic assessment would work better, considering the constraints, under which the module will operate, and the resources available. ©The authors ©Emerald.

Purpose: This study aims to present a conceptual framework aimed at promoting educational innovation in supply chain management and logistics (SCM&L). The framework can help to design active learning experiences regarding student learning outcomes that tackle current challenges in the discipline. Emphasizing the significance of linking students’ learning to real-world scenarios, the framework enables reflective learning through hands-on engagement in a constructive alignment, overcoming existing pedagogical limitations in the field. Design/methodology/approach: This study presents a qualitative research methodology that relies on the case study method. Three instances are presented to illustrate educational efforts of active learning in countries of Latin America, Bolivia, Mexico and Peru, linking real-world relevant situations to disciplinary teaching and learning. Findings: The innovative learning experiences introduced in this study transform real-world SCM&L operations into distinctive educational opportunities. These experiences facilitate learning not only within traditional classrooms but also in urban areas of the Latin American region, enabling students to interact with educational partners in authentic settings to achieve their intended learning outcomes. These experiences are characterized by their focus on establishing meaningful connections between learning and local communities, businesses or specific contexts. Research limitations/implications: The study recognizes various limitations of conceptual, methodological, execution-related and research process aspects. First, not all academics in the SCM&L discipline may universally acknowledge the importance of educational innovation and active learning experiences because of limited pedagogical awareness. Moreover, execution-related limitations arise from the demanding nature of incorporating active pedagogical approaches into courses, as they can be resource-intensive and time-consuming. Regarding research process limitations, the case study limits generalizability and broader inferences because of its particular views and locations, which require further investigation with other instances across other disciplines and geographical regions for validation. Practical implications: The practical implementation of this framework within the MIT SCALE network for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) demonstrates its potential in meeting diverse academic and institutional expectations and providing educational benefits to students. Social implications: The study makes a valuable contribution to prioritizing and coordinating pedagogical research by investigating the success of learning outcomes achieved through active and experiential implementations in various contexts. It provides inspiring examples of innovative learning experiences that can drive new developments not only within the LAC region but also in other areas, prompting a shift away from traditional educational approaches. Originality/value: This research presents a conceptual framework, which is developed from the insights obtained in the three learning experiences to guide future efforts in SCM&L education. The findings demonstrate how to structure active learning experiences based on authentic assessment and illustrate the potential for increased cooperation among institutions in Latin America. It also promotes the recognition of novel SCM&L active learning experiences and highlights some of the benefits of this approach.
