| dc.description.abstract | Access to quality higher education remains a challenge, especially for students with physical, sensory or cognitive disabilities, and those in remote communities. Higher education institutions face the need to offer inclusive solutions, taking advantage of technology to eliminate barriers. The use of drones has the potential to transform higher education, removing barriers and promoting the participation of students with diverse needs. This innovation fosters a more inclusive, collaborative and technologically advanced learning model. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) can offer many advantages for higher education and research, especially in fields that require remote sensing, aerial mapping, environmental monitoring or disaster response. For example, UAVs can allow students and researchers to collect high-resolution images, videos, and sensor data from different perspectives and locations, which can improve their spatial awareness, analytical skills, and scientific research. UAVs can also facilitate collaborative and interdisciplinary learning and research, as they can be used to share data and ideas across disciplines, institutions and regions. Additionally, UAVs can foster creativity and innovation as they can be used to design and test new solutions, prototypes and methods for various problems and scenarios.Introduce gamification and other active drone learning methodologies, where students solve challenges related to their area of study (for example, aerial tracking of "treasures" in geology or rescue simulations in civil engineering).This work proposes the use of drones as an educational innovation focused on inclusion, by offering tools that complement teaching and learning models in higher education through an interdisciplinary approach.Drones can be used to help improve orientation skills, motor skills, and even give students a better understanding of how the world around us works. | es |
