Presentation Transcript

  1. Innovation in Engineering Education

  2. New World - Service Economy • US GDP 80% Service • Generalists vs. specialists • T shaped people • Integrity and balance • Service Science emerging

  3. Engineering and Research in 2020 • Simulation vs. analytics • Distance vs. traditional learning • Engineering manager vs. engineer • Much more collaboration • New academic - industry relationships

  4. Intensives • New educational models needed • More pre and post processing • More perspectives • More asynchronous • Less linear - more like reality

  5. Very Different Teams • No longevity • Have not worked together before • Formed and disbanded on project basis • Disparate cultures • Differing identities, beliefs, values, behaviors and expectations

  6. 21 St Century Project Management • Much smaller plans • Much faster development times • Much more flexibility required • Much more collaboration

  7. ISPER Process • Imagine • Scope • Plan • Execute • Review

  8. Innovation Dashboard There has to be a way for everyone to see what you mean by innovation! Indicators of Innovation Shared Perspective Indicator Observers

  9. Measuring Innovation • Measurement from a scientific perspective requires repeatability. • Objective third parties should obtain similar results to each other. • This is a basic tenet of science and engineering. • Quantification also implies the existence of units. • Before leaping into specific numerical characterizations it is often useful to look at relative indicators of any given phenomena. • Innovation is no exception - the qualitative usually precedes the quantitative. Just as the relative precedes the absolute. • Once qualitative vocabulary and attribute importance are shared ... quantitative accuracy can follow.

  10. Innovation Indicators indicators precede metrics

  11. Open Source • Major efforts not owned by one entity. • Traditional IP models do not support collaboration • Quality control is a big problem. • Resource is infinite.

  12. Open Source Handbook • Innovation Management Handbook • Traditional morphing into Online • Many voices aggregated into volumes. • Invite people to get involved. • OSH.SVII.ORG (in progress)
