APPLYING THE CDIO FRAMEWORK WHEN DEVELOPING THE ECIU UNIVERSITY

S. Gunnarsson, M. Swartz (2021).  APPLYING THE CDIO FRAMEWORK WHEN DEVELOPING THE ECIU UNIVERSITY. 10.

The use of the CDIO framework in the development of the ECIU University is presented. The paper discusses the relatively moderate adaptations and modifications of the CDIO Syllabus and Standards that are necessary to make the documents applicable also in this context. Since challenge-based learning (CBL) is central learning format in the ECIU University, special attention is given to the connections between CBL method, the conceive-design-implement-operate sequence and project-based learning, which is central in the CDIO framework. The paper presents both general aspects and examples of the applications and activities within ECIU University and Linköping University (LiU). The main messages of the paper are that the development of the ECIU University will benefit from applying the CDIO framework since it offers references for what an education should give, in terms of knowledge and skills, and how an education program should be designed. In addition, the components of the CDIO framework require a moderate amount of adaptation to be directly applicable. Examples of the ongoing implementation activities at LiU.
