Traditionally in student experiments we have taught students technical knowledge and skills which are necessary to accomplish their experiments. In this traditional way of teaching, it has not been essential to develop engineers with communication skills and leadership. But recently such engineers become more and more important to tackle problems in team projects. In addition, ability to determine priorities among various complex subjects by using optimal method is needed for engineers these days. From this point of view, I have designed and implemented alternative student experiment programs based on behavioral, cognitive and situated learning theories to help students develop these skills and abilities. And according to the results of my investigation, I designed new curriculum for integrated education from high school level to university level at Toyama National College of Technology. This paper introduces these experiment programs I have developed and discusses educational effects and necessary improvements of these programs.

Quick globalization increases the necessity of higher communication skill for everybody. However, in reality, modern tools such as mobile and internet spoil the face-to-face communication ability among young people. In this paper, reviewing related books of communication skill in conjunction with speaking, hearing, reading and writing is first done on English as well as on Japanese. Parallel to this, self experience-based method for intensifying communication skill is described. Emphasizing points for improving each communication skill are concretely proposed in the body.

IoT has been getting a lot of attention in the global industry. Recent education programs also adopt information technologies such as IoT and ICT to improve the teaching method. However, education of KOSEN is desired to teach how to realize IoT and ICT, not only to utilize information technology. In this education program, we gave lectures about social needs of IoT and the management method of a project first. Based on the lecture, students investigated real information applications and then proposed their new technical seeds of information applications independently. Some projects were launched to realize the technical seeds. To move their project forward, they were able to use a virtual workshop in National Institute of Technology, Gunma College. Finally, students discussed their final products within the projects, and then we evaluated deliverables and processes of their projects. The virtual workshop includes visualization of existing equipment, which is placed in laboratories and facilities of our college, by network management. We connected the hardware and software resources to our college network and rebuilt the resources to the virtual workshop which was shared across our college. Moreover, we introduced new network-compatible IoT products other than existing equipment. This paper describes our education program to nurture IoT engineers in Gunma College.

In this paper, we implement a new style of manufacturing education on the basis of internships with local businesses as well as by using an interactive skills transfer and skill training system. Our system integrates virtual reality (VR) technology and information communications technology (ICT) which were developed at Saitama University. We have created an interactive technology and skills-sharing network linking the knowledge resources and technical resources of our university with the skill resources of local businesses. Our objective is for our students to learn the skills of the local businesses and their business needs and to be able to effectively acquire knowledge and skills for manufacturing. We report our findings from performing practical training that uses specialized knowledge acquired from lectures combined with VR technology with the objective to provide students with more thorough skills. Our undergraduate curriculum provides practical education that links experiments, practical training, and lectures, in mechanical engineering experiments, mechanical engineering seminars, mechanical engineering practical training, and internships.

One important subject in basic drafting class is ensuring that the students understand drafting rules based on Japanese industrial standards. Recently, instead of hand drafting, 2D or 3D CAD has been introduced to drafting practice classes in engineering education. However, there are few reports on CAD’ s educational effects. Thus, to compare the efficacy of CAD and hand drawing, we tested two groups of students who took 2D CAD and hand drafting, respectively. First, three question forms were compared on the required time to answer; then, the judgment of understanding and mistake-searching tests were conducted. The results showed a significant difference between the two classes in the percentage of correct answers on some questionnaire items. The lecture in which the percentage of correct answers was low was improved, such that it might explain the benefit of using concrete figures. After implementing improvements in teaching methods, the final examination showed significant educational effect.

Minute paper is one of reflection techniques carried out at the end of a day’s lesson. We implement it with quiz in mathematics class to promote fixing the knowledge and ability to solve mathematical problems. In every lesson, students take a quiz referring minute paper they wrote in previous lesson. We throw up the method is helpful for student to reflect what they learned in last lesson. Also we categorize contents of minute paper, and study its impact to student achievement. Analysis of the contents and student performance in examination is useful to give appropriate support to students.

The aim of Engineering Mathematics Test (EMaT) is to make sure what essentials in curriculum of Engineering Mathematics is, and to assess university students’ core academic competence and achievement of Engineering Mathematics, helping assurance of students’ academic ability. It is useful for professors to evaluate teaching effect of the classes, and this evaluation would help them improve curricula. Scores can be available for both graduate school entrance examinations and employment tests, leading to selecting persons with basic academic ability in Engineering Mathematics. The scope includes fundamentals in Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and Probability and Statistics. It is open to all students free of charge, and is annually given once in December. In 2007, 2,396 students from 35 universities took EMaT, and the total number of students who have taken EMaT in these 5 years is 6,240.

The basic program of general education of engineers is based on European culture from the times of ancient Greece to the 20th century. However, when considering its results, such as colonialism and the World Wars, this system can be said to lack the most important goal of “culture,” which is “to accept the existence of others.” In particular, the cooperation of European culture and engineering has ravaged the weaker cultures and is currently causing severe environmental problems in nature. Therefore, when considering the general education of engineers, it is indispensable to doubt European scholarship and to analyze what is lacking in current Japanese educational programs. Then, it is desirable that the relationship between the mind and the body, the characteristics of the Japanese climate, and the essence of Japanese artisanship be taken into consideration. It may also be beneficial to study the Ainu culture for its qualities as a peaceful culture.

To better utilize evaluations in higher education, it is necessary to share the methods of reviewing reliability and validity of examination scores and grades, and to accumulate and share data for confirming results. Before the GPA system is first introduced into a university or college, the reliability of examination scores and grades, especially for essay examinations, must be assured. Validity is a complicated concept, so should be assured in various ways, including using professional audits, theoretical models, and statistical data analysis. Because individual students and teachers are continually improving, using evaluations to appraise their progress is not always compatible with using evaluations in appraising the implementation of accountability in various departments or the university overall. To better utilize evaluations and improve higher education, evaluations should be integrated into the current system by sharing the vision of an academic learning community and promoting interaction between students and teachers based on sufficiently reliable and validated evaluation tools.

Quick globalization of human activity of economy has made English the most important international communication tool in the world past two decades. Taking the fact that the people speaking English as a mother language is less than ten percents of the total world population, into account, it is obviously to be noted that almost all the people using other language with different cultural background can basically truly be communicated not in English but in individual language. In this respect, learning multiple languages leads to be fascinated by different national culture and results in further enjoyment of one′s life. This is actually demonstrated in terms of the author′s experience in this paper.

This article introduces extensive reading (ER) as an approach to improve fundamental communication skills in English of reluctant EFL learners : average Japanese engineering students. It is distinct from concurrent translation approach from a perspective that the learners use English instead of Japanese to grasp the meaning of what they read and enjoy reading. In the ER program at Toyota National College of Technology, many students developed more positive attitude toward English, increased their reading speed, and achieved higher TOEIC scores, which was compared to those of the students before this ER program was introduced. Comparison between three groups of the students showed strong correlation between their TOEIC scores and the reading amount.

In this paper, we describe the approach that the systematized the process of student created mathematics exercises and answers and updating the contents of the mathematical exercise book. This effort was made to solve the problem that in general exercise book does not correspond to the learning content of the department or the level of the student. This effort led students to grasp the parts that they did not understand by making mathematics exercises and commentaries, and to review the contents learned in the past. Furthermore, based on the learning items of each subject, it can select necessary mathematics exercises and respond to the rapid change of the departmental situation such as curriculum change. As a result of this effort, the pass rate of mathematics subjects improved and the retention rate of learning contents increased.
