What action learning plan is this activity related to?

The Innovación Educativa project is linked to an action learning plan focused on educational transformation through digital innovation. It involves collaboration between universities (such as UNIFRANZ) and the United Nations Development Programme (PNUD) to create a network of educational innovation. The aim is to provide teachers, students, and parents with updated digital tools and training to improve educational quality. The project leverages bootcamps, sprints, and workshops to enhance competencies and adapt to modern educational demands

Design

What is the specific learning intent of the activity? Why is it important to do this experiment?

Specific Learning Intent of the Activity: The Innovación Educativa activity aims to explore how digital tools and innovative teaching methods can improve educational outcomes and teacher-student engagement in Latin America. The goal is to enhance 21st-century skills by training educators and creating a collaborative, updated learning environment. Why Is It Important? This experiment is vital because it addresses the need for modernizing education, fostering digital literacy, and ensuring students and educators have the necessary tools to thrive in a rapidly evolving global landscape

What is your hypothesis? IF... THEN....

IF digital tools and innovative teaching methods are implemented in educational institutions through the Innovación Educativa project, THEN the quality of education will improve, leading to enhanced student engagement, teacher effectiveness, and the development of 21st-century skills.

Does the activity use a control group for comparison?

Yes, the same group but before the intervention
