Abstract

This work refers to Experiential Learning Spaces (ELS) for Challenge-based Learning (CBL) in Industrial Engineering Education, which results from the need to define 'where to teach and learn' in active learning experiences. A gap in the literature exists as there is no indication for CBL learning spaces. CBL entails acting in real-life experiences to develop relevant competencies and learning outcomes. This idea defines specific requirements to translate into a structure of a concrete type of learning spaces. The traditional notion of learning spaces sticks to physical infrastructure or environments within universities, overseeing those cases in which learning occurs in locations under a different type of settings. ELS can support Experiential Learning; however, a further adaptation to the notion is required for CBL. This work offers a complementary framework to conceptualize and design spaces in these terms for Industrial Engineering. This paper also presents a descriptive application case to exemplify these ideas in the Social Lab for Sustainable Logistics at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico. The main contribution of this work resides in the conceptualization and exemplification of ELS to use CBL in Industrial Engineering education where no similar alternatives exist in these terms.
