| Descripción: | During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Agroindustrial Engineering program at the Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED) implemented an academic strategy to ensure educational continuity and the development of student abilities. In response to health restrictions, the laboratory practices of engineering courses, which are normally conducted in person at an educational pilot plant, were adapted to a home-based format. The instructional design was grounded in the flipped classroom model, providing students with materials to facilitate prior understanding, followed by the execution of experiments at home using raw materials available in their geographic area, as well as household equipment and utensils. The completion of the practices was verified through photographic evidence and laboratory reports, which were evaluated using specific rubrics. |
