international agreements on increased renewable energy use and practices thatsupport climate actions are essential for a sustainable future. It is widely recognized that the institutions & socio-economic systems require technologicalinnovations and more substantial and long-term political commitments to reduce fossil fuelconsumption and promote increased use of renewable energy [2]. A solution to achieve thisgoal is to develop and implement educational plans that raise awareness of the environment andits protection. The Environmental Education Act of 1972, considered a first step toward thisgoal, helped us understand the factors influencing climate change and human activitiesamplifying it.

. Rather than rigidly adhering to pre-planned lessons, instructors modifiedand co-created activities with input from students and community members. This flexibility builttrust and affirmed local knowledge, especially when students recognized their languages,Spanish and Creole, as valid and central in the classroom. Language became a medium for bothcommunication and connection, as multilingual teaching allowed students to engage more fullyand feel seen in their identities.Ultimately, reflective practice served not only as a pedagogical strategy but also as a researchtool. It allowed instructors to interrogate their own biases, respond meaningfully to studentneeds, and engage in continuous learning. By centering reflection and positional awareness

This involves generating hypotheses, selecting appropriate methodologies, and planning the execution of solutions.

However, the two targeted professional scenarios of the REprogram were directly aligned with the M-MCDP courses, i.e.: i. Design a robotic system involving the integration of mechanical, electrical and computer components, for a given application context. ii.
