This document discusses building interdisciplinary engineering education through the O-CDIO framework. It proposes adding human-centered practices to engineering curriculum to help create better engineers. Various teaching methods are mentioned, such as active learning, problem-based learning, and design thinking, which emphasize learning by doing and hands-on experiences. The document argues that engineering education reform requires commitment at different levels from society, universities, faculty, teachers, and students.

- 1. O-CDIO HOW TO BUILD INTERDISCIPLINARY ENGINEERING EDUCATION ?
- 2. Observe + CDIO = O-CDIO O = human centered approach, need finding, design thinking methods and practices

- 6. ARGUMENT Adding human centered practices to the engineering curriculum and learning methods in both BSc and MSc phases.. ..helps to create better engineers
- 8. JANUARY 2012 EVALUATION & 1ST ANALYSIS No major revisions needed in technical competence Need for improved preparedness for working life Desire for more hands–on learning
- 9. PROTOTYPES
- 14. Have we learned anything? … sure, the more senior the more O-based it can be.
- 16. FRAMEWORK Epistemology : Social constructionism Mixed methods / triangulation Data : semi-structured theme interviews, questionnaires, observation, Data points: UTU, AALTO, FDU, ME310, MIT-SUTD Underlying question: how to make better engineering education happen – courses act as test points
- 17. FINDINGS – VERY PRELIMINARY..
- 18. ENGINEERING EDUCATION REFORM 5 levels of commitment 1) Society level policy making (EU, US, CHINA) 2) University level leadership 3) Faculty and department level leadership – CRITICAL 4) Teacher – student interaction 5) The student – seems to be very against active learning methods in the beginning and then appreciating them afterwards
- 19. One last point..
- 20. TEACHING METHODS
- 21. APPROACH Teaching methods: Active learning ProblemBL, ChallengeBL DesignThinkingBL, PassionBL, ProOrienProbBL, Learning-by-doing, Hands-on-learning, And so on…
- 22. IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO… reality and knowledge creation is a socially constructed continuous process – everything was invented even before Hippies [50´s & 60`s]
- 23. .. or you can just call it Socratic / Confucian approach. Much before hippies.. [2400-2500 years old teaching method]
- 24. Engineering teaching – status quo
- 25. FUTURE EDUCATION Engineering learning enhancement– where we need to be
