Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of integrating inquiry-based and gamified learning approaches in a flipped classroom environment to enhance problem-solving capabilities, social competence, and real-world application of engineering and programming concepts among early learners including children with auditory impairments. This is facilitated by providing a drone simulation as part of an overarching drone workshop. To maximize students’ engagement with their learning process and therefore ensuring that the transfer of knowledge is as seamless as possible, we intend to transform the traditional landscape of studying based on direct instructions to be a more contemporary co-creational setting.
