The methodological approach was focused on a triangulated mixed design perspective, which allows integration of the qualitative and quantitative results derived from the educational experience of the pilot implementation of the model with a sample of students of the VII cycle of the Industrial Engineering program. The results obtained showed the relevance of the application of experiential learning to achieve the development of a safety culture in students. It was observed that active experimentation was the experiential learning factor that was most closely related to training in safety and skills. In this way, experiential learning through dynamism and experiential experiences manages to generate a safety culture. In conclusion, experiential learning manages to be an adequate strategy for the development of a culture of safety in students. </p> <p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong> Experiential learning; industrial engineering; pandemic; risks; safety culture. </p> Omar Fernando Cortés-Peña Jesus Ricardo Pulcha-Honores Jonathan Julian Poma-Chávez Laura Fausta Villanueva-Blas Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Innovative Research in Education https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 2024-08-16 2024-08-16 11 1 1 11 10.18844/ijire.v11i1.9290 https://un-pub.eu/ojs/index.php/IJIRE/article/view/9259 <p>This study explores the complex dynamics shaping teachers' self-efficacy in the context of distance learning. Drawing on a sample of 85 educators from Greece, the research investigates the impact of prior experience with technology, professional development, communication, collaboration, administrative support, and data-driven practices on teacher confidence in online instruction. Findings reveal that teachers with extensive technological backgrounds exhibit higher self-efficacy. Ongoing exposure to professional development positively influences confidence, emphasizing its role in digital pedagogy. A collaborative culture, supported by administrators, emerges as crucial for teacher resilience. Furthermore, strategic use of student data correlates with heightened self-efficacy. The study underscores the importance of targeted support mechanisms, collaborative environments, and informed decision-making to empower teachers in the evolving landscape of distance learning.</p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong>: Distance learning; educational technology; teacher self-efficacy; professional development</p> <p> </p> Ioannis Berdousis Copyright (c) 2024 International Journal of Innovative Research in Education https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 2024-08-16 2024-08-16 11 1 12 22 10.18844/ijire.v11i1.9259
