  1. Project Organized Problem Base Learning Oral Examination 23/11/11

  2. ECE Paris • French Engineering School • 5 years • French engineer diploma • Master of Science Lectures:1h30 – 100 students Practical Work:1h30 – 30 students 1 project: 1 per year Mini-project: 2 per semester

  3. Aalborg Universitet • Danish POPBL University • 3 / 5 / 8 years • Bachelor • Master • Phd Electronics and IT:5th semester Lectures:1h45 – 30 students Assignments:1h45 – 4 to 6 students 1 project : 1 per semester

  4. Intercultural Competencies Project Group: 1 danish student + 3 french ECE students Writing scientific documentation Working assignments as a group Matlab + Calculator / Handmade Calculation Approximations / Complex Results Academic / Industry

  5. Learning Style • Reflective Learner: • Think first • Think quietly • Work alone • Intuitive Learner: • Dislike repetition • Grasp new concepts • Dislike memorization and calculation routine • Visual Learner: • Flowcharts • Diagrams • Schematics • Sequential Learner: • Linear steps • Logical stepwise path for finding solution • Explain things

  6. Learning Style Alone • Reflective: • Work efficiently quietly and alone • Intuitive: • Working faster without repetitions • Visual: • Summarizing knowledge with flowcharts • Sequential: • Mastering a specific theme or subject Group • Reflective: • Avoiding confusion by thinking a lot • Intuitive: • Using and finding easily new concepts • Visual: • Summarizing heavy process • Sequential: • Working on a subject until it is completely understood

  7. Cooperation Contract Attendance Documentation Expectations Group Lecture Meeting Organization Supervisor

  8. Cooperation Contract Failures at some points No major impact on the project Establish the “philosophy” of the group Additional possible points (members evaluation)

  9. Management of People • Determined by the group chart: • Two groups of two students: writer + observer • Student rotation: global knowledge • Worksheets review: global agreement • Advisor meetings: validate ideas

  10. Management of People • Failures: • Impossible to apply the group mechanisms • Communication problems: • Knowing what the other group is working on • Having ideas together • Potential solutions: • Group meetings: • Summarise work and ideas • General brainstorming • Member evaluation: • Solving problems earlier

  11. Management of Time Project Planning • Built at the beginning of the project • Pessimistic estimations • As simple as it can be: • Meetings / Seminaries • Milestones • Deadlines Planning Control • Displayed on a board • Timeline • Pinned cards: • Meetings / Seminaries • Milestones • Deadlines • Reviewed before each working session

  12. Management of Time • We are behind on planning: • Real task duration > Estimated task duration • Short and expected delay (3 days) • No more lectures
