Canterbury Christ Church University is delighted to host the UK and European CDIO Regional Meeting. This meeting is an opportunity to continue our work on CDIO working groups. Also for our technical colleagues to work together on learning and teaching activities that involve technical support in developing students implement and operate elements of CDIO curriculum and capstone projects. The keynotes and workshops are opportunities for the CDIO and engineering educators’ community to consider key areas that need to be reflected and developed into our courses.

Keynotes

VR/AR technology is reaching maturity for mainstream operation and exploitation to enhance student learning. VR/AR in technical learning is making advancement in student learning, therefore how can VR/AR enhance HE engineering learning?

Climate change impact on all our lives is highlighting that sustainability is no longer an option in our curriculum. The next generation of students are seeking curriculum that is addressing UNESCO sustainability goals in particular social justice.

Engineering has a significant impact on everyone’s lives and the environment. Engineering impact can positive and negative on society and the environment. In the last decade the actions of commercial engineers at Volkswagen, EDF and Enron, and climate change has highlighted the imperative to embed in our curriculum engineering ethics.
