successful teaching strategy.It can be used in a virtual environment or regular college classroom settings. Active learningteaching approaches have been found to improve student learning, raise retention rates, and closethe achievement gap between various student populations in college science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses [4]. Beyond the subject of electrical engineering,active learning pedagogies have been applied extensively in industrial engineering [5-7].For STEM students, in particular, who learn best in courses with hands-on laboratories, aneffective online instructional practice uses a variety of active learning pedagogies as shown inFigure 1. There is a considerable level of discontent with online engineering

laboratory increased due to the need for change invarious aspects of teaching and learning. This enabled a greater engagement of the academiccommunity with the Teaching and Learning Center, enabling other departments to understandthe relevance of the center. In addition to providing consultancy, advice, and holdingworkshops, the center uses scientific methodology to prove that the methods work. In thisway, in addition to supporting the university community, they generate scientific knowledge.This developed knowledge is essential to convey confidence. For instance, research only withindustrial engineering and operations management students could be conducted by this centerto generate insights that can improve the teaching and learning for this

Therefore, it is crucial forengineering students to get involved in the complexities of interacting with people whenimplanting Lean, to correctly develop their skills in continuous improvement.However, a common limitation for students that are learning Lean Manufacturing is the lack ofexposure to real situations in which Lean is being implemented, such as practices in laboratories,participation in real-world experiences or access to available processes, where implementing leantools and measuring the impact on KPI’s is taking place [3].Attending this urgent need of students to participate in real life process, in Tecnologico deMonterrey, we have designed a course named “Design of

, inquiry-driven techniques that promote curiosity and involvestudents as active participants in the learning process have been advocated in recent times [8],[9], [10], [11].Experiment-centric pedagogy (ECP), which combines traditional coursework with flexible, non-complex, hands-on activities and experiments, is one pedagogical strategy that induces aparadigm shift in learning whether in classrooms or laboratories, as well as educationaloutcomes. [12] define ECP as a practical, learner-centered teaching approach that uses affordableand portable devices to demonstrate STEM concepts. By giving learners’ the chance to engagedirectly with engineering phenomena, build knowledge via first-hand experience, and connecttheory to practice, these immersive

teaching manufacturing systems, engineering systems anddesign, engineering management, health care systems, and lean six-sigma process improvement;all subjects in which students need to gain an understanding of complex systems.Many teaching simulations are implemented physically, as laboratory or table-top systems. Thesesimulations have the advantage of being direct (if often simplified and miniaturized) models ofthe systems in question, allowing tactile learning from manipulating the simulation elements, andfostering face-to-face teamwork by the participating students. The idea of implementing suchsimulations in virtual environments seems promising. Theoretically, these implementationsshould be cheap, easy to implement, and universally available

(knowledge, skills, and attitudes), wasa challenge for most professors whose courses were primarily focused on evaluating contentor knowledge through summative assessment techniques. In such cases, it was crucial toinvolve the coordination of the engineering program and the PMG program to engageprofessors and assist in developing these rubrics through workshops. The training provided by the MECEK laboratory on competence-based education inengineering courses and the experiences facilitated by the PMG program, in partnership withexperts from North American universities, were crucial in understanding tools and methodsfor competency evaluation, their application in the Brazilian context, and organizingworkshops conducted by the EWG to create rubrics

expensive physical experimentation ofdifferent options, such as running laboratory experiments to study the effect of different chemicalcompounds or growing different varieties of crops in an agricultural setting. With the advent ofcomputers, many systems can be modeled computationally based on existing foundationalknowledge. Although some computer models are still considered computationally time-consuming, they can explore different options in settings that would not be possible in physicalexperiments. Examples include photochemical air quality simulations and vehicle crashsimulations. In the case of building design, there are existing computer models to help designersstudy the impact of their design without having to physically build it. For our
