Roots Finding - PBL in the First Year Course -

Hanabusa, Takao,Fujisawa, Shoichiro Korean Society for Engineering Education 2010 공학교육연구 Vol.13 No.5

Design subjects have become popular in the engineering education. In these subjects, an active learning skill was introduced to students. Students have to decide a theme and the way how to study it and to find answers by themselves. This learning method was developed in the early year courses in the University of Tokushima. The common learning curriculum among whole university adopted this design subjects from 2005 of the school year and eleven more new subjects started. "Roots finding" is one of them and the objectives are to gain abilities of self-study through the research on a particular subject, and make report then presenting them. Self-learning ability, research ability and presentation skills were enhanced through this subject.

Students’ Voluntary Teaching Activities in Science Schools

Hanabusa Takao,Shozo Tsuzuki 한국공학교육학회 2012 공학교육연구 Vol.15 No.5

Student members from The University of Tokushima worked voluntarily at the science school for elementary school children and high school students under the support of Japan Science and Technology Agency. The teaching classes for the science school were held in 2010 as follows: (1) Science handicraft class for children on “Wonder in light, sound, temperature and force”, (2) Family Science School for children and parents on “Measurement of length, temperature, weight and energy”, (3) “Tatara steel making” for high school students, (4) “Wave motion in strings” for high school students. This paper describes how the students prepared the teaching materials and what they obtained from the teaching activities.

The Way to Make Student Project Activity Successful

Hanabusa, Takao,Konishi, Masaki,Kiriyama, Satoshi Korean Society for Engineering Education 2014 공학교육연구 Vol.17 No.5

Student independent project activity is beneficial for enhancing many kinds of abilities, e.g., team working, collaboration, communication, presentation, creativity, leadership, and so on. More than ten project teams actively perform every year in the Center for Innovation and Creativity Development of The University of Tokushima. The project management workshop was planned in order to make project activity successful. In this workshop, the team members studied the importance of holding a common objective among them and of making a clear plan for achieving the activity. They practiced brainstorming method and KJ method and experienced a PDCA cycle. The team activity will be fruitful on the basis of the project management method.

The Asian Conference on Engineering Education has organized and is held in Busan. This paper tells the steps for theprocess of planning of this conference. Firstly, The Innovation Center for Engineering Education in Korea Maritime Universityand the Center for Innovation and Creativity Development in The University of Tokushima signed the mutualinterchange agreement on engineering education in 2005. The interrelation of both centers has made a continuous relationby mutual visiting of teachers and students. The first symposium on engineering education between the two universitieswas held in 2006. Three symposia were succeeded until now. By the way, the Japanese five-university coalition of engineering education was composed in 2004. This five-university coalition annually held the symposium on engineeringeducation. Two teachers and two students of each university participated in the symposium and introduced their activities.Annual symposium was held every year from 2004 to 2008. Based on these two kinds of symposium, we have plannedto enlarge the relationship by including partner universities in both countries. The capstone design coalition on engineering education between the Center for Innovation and Creativity Development in the University of Tokushima and the innovationcenter for engineering education in Korea Maritime Universityare introduced. The interrelation of both centers has held bymutual visiting of teachers and students during four years. The capstone design activities of Korea Maritime University andthe students' creative design projects of the University of Tokushima were introduced each other. This coalition is plannedthat it needs to be enlarged by including partner universities in both countries.
