Workshop: Learning experiences for educational leadership and innovation in engineering education

Abstract

Higher education requires responding to contemporary challenges and future trends that face humanity by equipping students with new skills that allow for their personal and professional development. Therefore, universities should promote educational leadership and innovation to enrich learning experiences with novel methods and approaches that advance the education they provide. This workshop offers a framework for reflecting upon and identifying those aspects that can help (re) shape learning experiences in these terms. Participants will conduct discussions about their views on current challenges, learning experiences, educational leadership, and innovation, and find alternatives to advance engineering education in delivering high-impact value to students, organizations, and societies in general.
