Recognizing this limitation and building on the foundation that learning is asocial process not solely cognitive [12], there has been a growing interest in diverting fromtraditional based teaching methods and exploring alternative pedagogies that promotecollaboration and critical reflexivity. That said, we intend to analyze the influence of in-personand digital pedagogical interventions to determine how they contribute to the development ofconceptual knowledge of current engineering students when critical reflexivity is considered atthe front and center of the pedagogical approach. Digital interventions leverage technology tocreate interactive educational experiences through online simulations and collaborative tools,fostering virtual learning. In
