- Augmented reality as a driver to enhance engagement in high school students(Springer Link, 2024-08-05) Velarde Camaqui, Davis; Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; https://ror.org/03ayjn504Educational innovation supported by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) is presented as a way to promote quality education and improve student competencies. The integration of ICTs in schools facilitates access to information and knowledge, eliminating barriers of time and space. To achieve effective integration, it is important to consider Technologies for Learning and Knowledge (TAC), which seek to understand the entire teaching-learning process. Technologies such as augmented reality (AR) have proven to provide immersive experiences and enriching education, by offering significant opportunities to interact with different scenarios and facilitate the understanding of complex concepts. However, studies on the implementation of AR in education have mainly focused on the university level, but research has also been conducted at secondary and elementary school levels, showing positive effects on socio-emotional aspects, cognitive development and academic performance. Thus, the implementation of AR at the high school level is a niche to improve students’ academic engagement and motivation. To address this topic, a mixed study combining quantitative and qualitative approaches is proposed. This is achieved by implementing a Systematic Literature Review and proposing an AR initial incorporation model. The results show a lack of implementation of AR at the high school level. The implications of this study include to make a valuable contribution to the instructional design and technology field, specifically as a case study for high school education, which is an area that warrants additional investigation, particularly in Latin American contexts.
- Integrating IoT and civic education: SKILIKET system as an approach to environmental monitoring and awareness(2024-06) Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; Olivo Montaño, Pamela Geraldine; Mercado Rojas, José Guadalupe; Antelis Ortíz, Javier Mauricio; Limón García, Alejandro; Tecnologico de Monterrey; https://ror.org/03ayjn504The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in addressing environmental sustainability has highlighted the need for innovative approaches to data collection and community involvement. At the same time, the citizen science movement continues to foster the participation of volunteers to democratise science. However, access to robust kits for training and large-scale deployment remains limited. Here we propose the SKILIKET system, a flexible training tech-kit which aims at real-time monitoring of environmental variables using IoT capabilities, following a citizen science approach. The initiative seeks to foster technical and civic competencies among participants by using the system to help them understand socio-ecological phenomena. Drawing on Design-Based Research methodology, the authors outline co-creation activities that will be further conducted with higher education student teams to envision the ideal use of the system. This first stage of experimental design outlines the expected system interactions in a controlled environment, where students would be encouraged to actively participate in collecting data from their immediate environment. This engagement is intended to nurture a deeper understanding of socio-environmental issues, enhance public awareness, and support data-driven decision-making and public policy development. By incorporating educational objectives, SKILIKET also serves as a tool for promoting civic skills, data literacy, and community-oriented problem solving. This paper discusses the initial design, implementation strategies, and the expected educational and societal impacts of SKILIKET, highlighting its dual role in environmental monitoring and educational enhancement to address the sustainable development goals (SDGs).
- Instructional design for AR learning experiences: impact on academic engagement(2024) Velarde Camaqui, Davis; Quintero Gámez, Lorena; Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; University of AlicanteAugmented Reality (AR) has emerged as a revolutionary tool in the educational domain, offering new forms of interaction and learning. Recent studies have shown that AR can significantly increase student motivation and engagement by allowing them to interact with content in a more immersive manner. Furthermore, AR facilitates the visualization of abstract concepts, making learning more acces-sible and comprehensible for students of varying levels. Despite these benefits, its integration into mainstream courses presents several challenges to its imple-mentation. This study aims at assessing a technological instructional design con-ceived to promote academic engagement in an AR-supported course. A quasi-experimental design was adopted based on the research-by-design methodology. The intervention with 160 high school students was facilitated through the Edu-AR platform, which offers various AR resources. The results indicated that the experimental group showed a significant increase in academic engagement com-pared to the control group. Qualitative findings revealed that structured AR activi-ties were highly engaging and helped students understand complex concepts, though technical challenges and the need for teacher training were noted. These findings suggest that a systematic and continuous approach to AR integration can positively influence student engagement and offer new perspectives for educators and instructional designers. The study highlights the importance of incorporating AR in a planned manner and providing ongoing support to teachers to maximize its educational potential.
- Open platform prototype for technocreative labs:case-based assessment to enhance complex thinking(2023-06-29) Sanabria Zepeda, Jorge Carlos; Artemova, Inna; Alfaro Ponce, Berenice; Tecnologico de Monterrey, Institute for the Future of Education / School of Architecture, Art, and Design (EAAD); https://ror.org/03ayjn504; https://ror.org/043xj7k26; Polytechnic University of PortoEmerging Industry 4.0 demands for the continuous reskilling and upskilling of researchers and employees indicate the need to develop complex thinking in higher education students through training in applied research projects at the international level. This work uses the research case methodology to showcase the creation of a virtual technocreative platform prototype through sequential activities for the progressive development of complex thinking at the undergraduate level in international partnership research between Mexico and Canada. The study process applied the observation method. The findings were: a) research activities promote the development of complex thinking; b) a logical sequence of contextualized activities can enhance complex thinking; and c) international collaboration triggers complex thinking. The work emphasized innovative thinking through supervised interdisciplinary work and students acquiring inquiry skills through real-life problem-solving. The highly contextualized, sequenced activities can be replicated in other educational projects that involve international collaboration.
