Common Understanding

Western Norway University of Applied Sciences(WNUAS)in cooperation with Junior Achievement Sogn og Fjordane, organizes interdisciplinary innovation camps for nursing and engineering students. The student assignments are given by local businesses and organizations. This study’s objective is to evaluate and develop new programs for innovation camps, as well as to share ideas with educators working with this type of learning activity. A qualitative method was used, and a focus group interview was conducted involving nursing and engineering students (n=8). The students were satisfied with innovation camp as a method for learning, and the learning outcome was good. They regard innovation camp as a diverging learning method. The students are lacking a common understanding of innovation and entrepreneurship before participating at the event, the assignments were too limited, and they were not challenging enough for creative thinking. This study leads to several conclusions to improve upcoming innovation camps at WNUAS. The improvements can be separated into two categories: 1. The students need to be better prepared for the event. 2. The assignments need to be more open.

This chapter introduces project-based learning approach which is used in the Oulu University of Applied Sciences (OUAS), School of Engineering and Natural Resources, Mechanical Engineering Department to get local companies to offer project works to mechanical engineering students. The concept is based on organizing a local event or online event for the companies to come to OUAS campus to present their challenges needing engineering students to solve. The companies are then competing, selling, or pitching their problem for engineering students as the engineering students will then individually select the most interesting cases to be solved, and which has linkage to potential summer job and thesis work opportunities if projects are successful. The concept has proven to be successful, and it has been established as traditional event with many companies returning to the pitching event annually to get their industry problems solved by group of motivated engineering students.

This paper presents a case study of preservice kindergarten teachers’ use of new form of digital imagery. The paper introduces spherical cameras and digital microscopes and discusses their affordances when introduced in practical use in in teacher education and in kindergartens. The use in kindergartens was introduced through a class of 34 teacher students in kindergarten education. The students were specializing in Arts and design at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences. The use of images from spherical cameras and digital microscopes is discussed and analysed, based on data from student responses through two questionnaires, group presentations and discussions in class, and an analysis of various media material produced by students.

The Impact

Abstract This research aims to investigate the impact of learning methods and creative thinking skills toward history learning outcome of students at Al-Azhar Kelapa Gading Islamic Senior High School. The method used in this research is experimental research method with the treatment design by level 2 x 2. The instrumen used to assess students creative thinking’s skills is in quesionnaire form, while the instrument used to assess students achievement is in the multiple choice form. The result show that: 1) history learning outcome of students using mind mapping learning methods are higher than those history learning outcomes of students using conventional learning methods, 2) there is interaction effect between learning method and creative thinking on history learning outcome of students, 3) history learning outcome of students who has high creative thinking and using mind mapping learning method are higher than students using the conventional learning method, 4) history learning outcome of students who has low creative thinking and using mind mapping method are lower than students using the conventional learning method. Keywords : learning methods, mind mapping, conventional, history learning outcomes, creative thinking

The University

Through 10 years of cooperation between the University of Zambia and the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, 24 students of Civic Education (Social Sciences) from the University of Zambia had an opportunity to travel to Norway to have a different learning experience of Civic Education. In this study, we sought through qualitative questionnaires and interviews to understand how the former Civic Education teacher students describe their experiences and received benefits during the 10 months they spent at the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences. The study established that transformative learning takes time, but of paramount importance was that the students were able to critically reflect and act as change-makers at an individual, school, and/or society level. The study also noted that international student mobility can increase students’ transformative learning under certain conditions. Therefore, our study concludes that crucial factors for transformative learning consist of the combination of cultural mentoring, teaching practice, critical discussions, and critical theories. Additionally, the study notes that reframing our perspectives as learners, teachers, and researchers can lead to increased awareness of moral imperatives for satisfying human needs, ensuring social justice and respecting environmental limits as citizens in a global world.

Engineering Pedagogy

Entrepreneurship education is quite a novel phenomenon that is gaining increasing importance in academia and practice alike. Entrepreneurship education aims to provide the necessary skills and knowledge that enable students to successfully found a new venture. Hitherto entrepreneurship education has not received much attention in engineering pedagogy. This finding is quite surprising because through proper entrepreneurship education engineers can be enabled to exploit entrepreneurial opportunities that result from technological innovation. Thus, we argue that entrepreneurship education should be a cornerstone in engineering education. The paper introduces the ‘Entrepreneurial Campus Villach’ located at the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences (CUAS). The campus is among the first in Austria that provide an extensive and scientifically sound entrepreneurship program. The campus focusses on the four core areas 1) research, 2) teaching, 3) coaching and support, and 4) infrastructure. The paper provides insights for other university and institutions that aim to set up similar concepts.

Abstract The interpretation and reflection of how teaching and learning can be performed according to rather modern approaches is described. The centre of education at the Technical University is strong and supports newly appointed teachers. It is all about competences which need to be promoted and encouraged. The writing and formulating learning outcomes are the basis of different kinds of knowledge and called taxonomy levels. A learning outcome for the Bachelor module leather, its history, tannage and conservation is presented. Learning activation is enabled by changing lecture styles with the help of videos, original material and daily life memory links. The voting system PINGO can be used as activation form as well as pre-assessment format. The range of assessment styles ranges from oral and written presentation to a novel form of capturing video sequences. The production of minute-videos enable a different view to a process, helps to understand the topic of the lecture und activates the students enormously.
