The study seeks to engage undergraduate and/or graduate students from universities in Thailand and Japan in a constructionist learning experience that involves designing and building social innovations to address environmental and social problems. Students will be using creative learning technologies to facilitate their maker-centered learning experiences and kick start their innovations. Ultimately, we aim to develop case studies of culturally relevant constructionist ESD learning and processes that show higher education's potential and ESD challenges.
Following are the key achievements since the research started in December 2021: (1) Research proposal and pilot study were presented at Tokyo Institute of Technology, United Nations University (UNU-IAS), and Teachers College, Columbia University.
