Just as the media industry, media technology and interaction design are fast moving areas. Even though grounded in theoretical models, the problems that the students face after graduation are constantly changing and contemporary, which makes a CDIO approach to education important. This paper reports a case study concerning a project spanning two consecutive courses with the main objective to re...

The rapid development of computers and the internet has given new opportunities for engineering work as wells as for teaching and learning. The use of advanced modern mathematics is becoming increasingly more popular in the engineering community and and most problem solutions and developments incorporate high precision digital models, numerical analyses and simulations. However, this kind of ma...

To meet the requirements of Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) Vietnam’s K-12 education has shifted from a content-based to competency-based approach. Teacher institutions are, therefore, required make comprehensive curriculum reforms align with innovation. This paper is concerned adoption CDIO (conceive-design-implement-operate) initiative for teacher training programs at Vinh University in Ce...

Kanazawa Institute of Technology (KIT) has conducted educational reforms since 1995 and joined the CDIO initiative at June, 2011. In the present paper, first, an overview of the KIT engineering educational program is presented, including the 2012 curriculum which was developed after joining the CDIO initiative. Second, an active learning system based on a “Comprehensive Learning Initiative Proc...

The objective of this paper is to present the evolution of a learning studio that facilitates collaborative problem/project-based learning (PBL) for engineering students using a mechatronics platform. The paper presents a list of major activities that are included in the platform such as lab experiments, student projects, competitions, and outreach programs. The students were encouraged to cons...

In order to meet the needs of talent training goals applied universities and deepen integration industry education, this paper proposes design teaching framework Python programming courses with “OBE-based concepts”, reconstruct content, carry out practice “CDIO-based engineering concepts”. Practice shows that model can effectively stimulate students' independent learning ability exploration, at...
