Abstract:
Student Engagement is recognized as a covariate of learner outcomes within both online and face to face learning environments. Withal, due to extensive implementation of passive teaching approaches, there is finite guidance about utilization of proactive student-centered teaching strategies to ameliorate engagement among learners like employing Project Based Experiential Learning (PBEL). This paper describes ongoing research to improve multifaceted Student Engagement (Cognitive, Behavior & Emotional Engagement) of learners enrolled in Creative Multimedia Bachelor's degree course, working on their final year projects to develop Extended Reality (XR) applications. To explore how project based experiential learning strategy can be used effectively to engage learners and acknowledging the immanent role emerging XR technologies can play in higher education with a potential to engage learners, this conceptual paper provides a framework for eliciting student engagement via PBEL including XR Technology as an influential factor. As a contribution to teaching practices the framework illustrates student focused approach of experiential learning via project-based learning which can be effectively integrated as a pedagogy in higher education classrooms to increase student engagement, empower learners with 21st Century Skill Set and influence both short and long term academic and social outcomes.
