Listen "#32 Jorge Membrillo-Hernández from ITESM Mexico on Challenge Based Learning"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to the podcast!Engineering education is home to many different learning approaches including problem, project, and challenge-based learning, as well as studio learning. At the same time, technological advances mean that there is an increasing focus on virtual learning, and collaboration across geographical contexts. The wide variety of approaches at our disposable necessitates choices to be made regarding what, and how, ideas will be incorporated, and indeed at what scale.In this episode we speak to Jorge Membrillo-Hernández from the Technological University of Monterrey. Jorge has a wealth of experience in using a variety of teaching and assessment methods in many different contexts. Jorge incorporates challenge-based learning (CBL) at a programme level, with challenges drawn from both local and global partners. He is particularly interested in socially oriented interdisciplinary STEM education, and COIL (collaborative on-line learning classroom). He has over 100 publications with over 2000 citations and an h-index of 26) and is probably the most published author focusing on CBL within engineering!Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about an institution wide approach to CBL in a Mexican context.Timestamps0.00 Welcome and introduction to episode0.21 Podcast Intro0.47 Experiences with CBL from Natalie and Neil2.46 Introduction to Jorge5.51 Introduction to Technological University of Monterrey 6.52 Tech21 Educational model8.41 CBL within Tech2112.00 The role of the educator within CBL15.15 An example of a challenge and the interdiscplinary education team22.56 The involvement of partner organisations26.55 Fostering industrial relationship28.31 Planning a challenge that supports student development 32.35 COIL - Collaborative online international learning35.14 Student resistance to CBL41.44 Challenges associated with implementing CBL47.00 The future of CBL and research into CBL51.20 Final advice from Jorge55.27 Key takeaways from Natalie and Neil Further Reading You can find out more about Jorge and via his institutional home pagehttps://research.tec.mx/vivo-tec/display/PID_289299His publications can also be found through ResearchGatehttps://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jorge-Membrillo-Hernandezand Google Scholarhttps://scholar.google.com/citations?user=BpZtoj8AAAAJ&hl=esJoin us!
