Toward an agile pedagogical strategy for the COVID-19 era: A case study of teaching sustainability topics
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Students' engagements and creating an effective learning experience in the classroom are essential in active educational strategies. Flexibility and adoption of new learning technologies play a critical role during the pandemic. Different active pedagogical strategies enhance students' learning experiences on the online platforms. The lecturers should be dynamic and flexible, in terms of using hybrid strategies, to optimize this experience. Teaching sustainability courses require innovative teaching styles for encouraging students for active engagement, as well as collaboration, and participation of different stakeholders. This study presents the different teaching approaches for a graduate course in an engineering school during the pandemic. It shows how the combination of case studies, simulation, class guests, and Q&A on a virtual whiteboard could improve students' engagement in a sustainable production course. Kolb's learning model is used to show the advantages of the proposed approach. As the teaching approaches are evolving, as the result of digital transformation, the future perspectives in the post-pandemic period are also discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
