To enhance active learning and understanding of analogue and digital electronics the use of elearning techniques will be investigated.
In the middle of the philosophie of CDIO we find the design based project. This is an innovativ, creativ, iterativ and heuristic scan and creation process. The needed creativity has to be formed.
This paper will describe an exciting new initiative in the UK focusing on "Implement" and "Operate" of CDIO for a Civil Engineering programme at the University of Liverpool.
In this discussion note, we look into the problem of measuring and limiting the student workload.
In this paper, we describe how Challenge Based Learning in a form of multidisciplinary project is applied to teaching of Embedded Systems Design as a part of process of implementing CDIO Initiative
The purpose of this paper is to give a short overview of a successful attempt at integrating communicative skills and disciplinary skills into a design project at the Product Design Engineering Pro
In their professional life, engineers often work with colleagues with a different background.
Some aspects of computer support in learning and assessment in engineering education are discussed. It is emphasized that the use of computer support, like e.g.
Questions concerning future directions for CDIO and areas that possibly should receive more attention by CDIO will be discussed. Discussion will be initiated in the following areas:
There is a clear shift in employers’ expectations of the desirable skills from a fresh graduate.
Research evidence reveals that the process of transition from school to university is a key factor in 1st year student attainment and retention.
“Teaching” Entrepeneurship is an extremely special task. Wismar University has experiences in doing that since some years.
A survey of CDIO leaders will be distributed at the beginning of the round-table session to stimulate discussion.
We propose a round-table session on the subject of introducing portfolios into engineering programs.
When comparing how CDIO is implemented in different institutions, there is a wide variety in whether and how educational development units (by whatever name they are known) have been engaged to wor
Often courses in renewable and alternative energy for engineering students are mainly concerned with details of how different energy sources and systems are used and with the direct consequences of

This paper focuses on a special field of the engineering profession, namely the breakthrough innovation in technical products and on the education process to prepare young people for this challengi
The rapidly changing technology and the new developments in engineering call for changes in the settings, contexts and methods of engineering education.
Increasingly, university engineering programs are adopting a CDIO context, and providing authentic design-implement project-based learning experiences for their students.
Nearly all academic staff are amateur teachers, whatever their level of specialist competence.
The present theme builds on
(1) a growing critique, related to the design and implementation of undergraduate studies, and
A learning context is the set of cultural surroundings and environments that contribute to understanding, and in which knowledge and skills are learned.
A systems engineering approach is employed in this project to address how universities in Vietnam can best meet the needs of industry.
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.
