TEACHING ENGINEERING STUDENTS: FROM PRINCIPLES TO PRACTICES

S. Osipova, O. Shubkina (2019).  TEACHING ENGINEERING STUDENTS: FROM PRINCIPLES TO PRACTICES. 10.

The paper describes the idea, the process of implementation and the results of a teaching development course for engineering faculty, providing training for engineering students of Siberian Federal University in accordance with new challenges in higher education. The paper covers the teaching development course that involves two levels: the first level – understanding and acceptance of CDIO ideas and Standards, basic pedagogical foundations and concepts, modern teaching methods and technologies by educational engineers. The second level implies designing advanced, personally significant course content. The developed course is implemented with the use of interactive technologies, involves the formation of professional and personal competencies by means of solving integrated problem tasks, teamwork, active learning. The results of the teaching development course for engineering faculty are demonstrated by a new educational product or technology that a particular educational engineer has developed, and are subjected to expert evaluation. The process of implementing the described teaching development course for engineering faculty is carried out by means of volunteering participation in problem-analytical workshops and roundtables, reciprocal visiting of classes and the idea of mentoring and cooperation implemented in the university environment. The experience of Siberian Federal University in the teaching development course for engineering faculty is provided with the experts’ and students’ feedbacks and course evaluation.
