Design Thinking (DT) is a human-centric approach to designing product, process, system and services.
Students in Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Queen’s University were surveyed on the CDIO Syllabus at the end of the Fall Term, half way through their final year in the program.
Learning spaces designed for teamwork and active learning in CDIO-based engineering programmes need to be equipped with appropriate furniture.
Any educational effort may deliver its goods only if designed and implemented with care & clockwork precision.
This paper aims to describe the development work done regarding the project Topic to Study (TTS) which intends to enforce written communication skills while simultaneously improving student working
Online learning is in its infancy, but is developing rapidly on a global scale. The shift from the classroom to online can be described as a shift from “efficiency to quality”.
One of the main goals of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) is to promote engineering education, capacity building and applications for poverty eradication and sustainable development.
School of Engineering, Shantou University has been working on EIP-CDIO (Ethics, Integrity, Professionalism, Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) engineering education and training mode reform sinc
This paper introduces a new type of English presentation course that emphasizes project work and internet technology.

In 2005, a new Creativity, Innovation and Enterprise (CIE) Option was created for second year students to learn new skill-sets that are geared towards moving up the manufacturing value chain.
This study describes the educational experience of the students‟ perceptions to the teaching of CDIO skills through a problem based approach.
This paper describes the experiences of learning through an overseas community service project carried out, over 18 days, in February/March 2008, in Makassar, Indonesia.
Fostering active learning and creation of workspaces are central to pedagogic principles in the CDIO initiative.
This paper presents the experiences of the introduction of some steps of “Conceive” and “Implementation” stage of the real-world engineering processes in a traditional lecture-based course, called
Project-oriented courses are important tools to learn core engineering knowledge, skills and attitudes.
In order to improve the ability of combining theory with practice, herein we introduce an idiographic teaching and learning methodology, which has been successfully employed in the course of Digita
This paper describes how some technical aspects of structural engineering can be redesigned, modified and transferred for operation by civil engineering students for emergency preparedness training
Structural engineering modules in Diploma in Civil Engineering and Management (DCEM) course are traditionally perceived by students as “abstract”, “dry” and “hard to visualize”.
CDIO is a generalized model for the enhancement of engineering education.
Problem-based learning (PBL) is adopted in a unique One-Day One-Problem approach at Republic Polytechnic (RP), Singapore. The basis is that students learn best through engagement.
The CDIO Initiative has been globally recognised as an enabler for engineering education reform.
This investigation looks at how effective lab classes are in the Mechanical Engineering courses at Queen‟s University Belfast in the context of modern approaches to engineering education.
Defining customer needs; considering technology, enterprise strategy, and regulations; developing concepts, techniques and business plans.
Creating the design; the plans, drawings, and algorithms that describe what will be implemented.
The transformation of the design into the product, including manufacturing, coding, testing and validation.
Using the implemented product to deliver the intended value, including maintaining, evolving and retiring the system.
