Education from “Favorite “ to “Good At”

Project Based Learning - Learn the social implementation ofscience and technology through the experience of challenges
Trial, Challenge, Contestπ

Learning through classroom lectures●Learning of Social Implementation of “Science andTechnology” through the Challenge Experience（PBL:Project Based Learning）●

Traditional
Learning

Science and Technology Discipline Education… Math, Language, Science, Social, etc.

Learning the science andtechnology methodology…
Idea creation, prototyping/experimental method,improvement(Kaizen)
method, communication
ability ..., etc.

FutureLearning

Learning by experienceWhy education at technical college is valued?
 Intern Practical experiment
 Factory training Bachelor thesis Robot contest

Research and education
activities
Social implementation
activities Education to move thehead and limbs
 Group work from the ageof 15

Learning from experience and learning from group work,
including failures
Give students the opportunity to "challenge".
Knowledge /Understanding

General-purpose ability?
= Social implementation powere.g.
・Ability to derive new ideas and solutions
・Ability to grasp the essence of theproblem from experiments
・Ability to ptoduce something while thinking
for yourself
・Ability to collaborate
・Presentation ability＜Current general-purpose ability (social implementation ability)＜Current gereral arts (socioeconomic knowledge and English)＞Note: Technical college education is connected to workplace learning.

LearningProcecures:from robot social implementation contest
1. Creating a service concept (open issue)& Creation of required robots or systems to realize seevice
2. On-site test (on-site experience)
3. Improvement based on the voice of the site (feedback)4. Contest on the process and lesson learned (process evaluation)
Benefits (cultivation of students‘ passion and deep learning)A) Co-creation of learning and research derived from challenges
 Learning from constructing such things as robots and robot systems (genuine power)
Ignite students' hearts → Positive influence on parents
 Learning from a pseudo-society
Teamwork, group work, tactics, deception, social rulesB) Co-creation of learning derived from social implementation

 Challengers have to ask politely for cooperation of their system users to evaluate the system.
→ Very nice experience for both students and teachers to ask a favor for them.
 Challengers must hear user's voice carefully and translate it to engineering language to improve the system.
→ Good for developing engineering literacy.
 Challengers can obtain a good response from users after one year trial.

３ Teams＜Innovative Japan Project＞Development as social implementation education（FY2012）：Started as MoE Project
7T.C‘s １４ Teams（FY2013）：Ingenuity of implementation method (award)
10T.C’s ３０ Teams（FY2014）：Deepening as an educational method(adopted as MoC)11T.C’s ３８ Teams（FY2015）：Obtained critical mass and various experiences
14T.C’s ４９ Teams（Introduction of preliminary examination committee）（FY2016）:Summary of MoE project
21T.C’s ５９ Teams＜Kosen4.0 Proｊeｃt＞Expansion of social implementation education to all faculties（FY2017）Continued as Kosen4. project
19T.C’s ５８ Teams（FY2018）Preparation for school-wide project
19T.C’s ７１ Teams（FY2019）Continuation as voluntary efforts(1st year of school-wide project)
