The Leadership of Entrepreneurialism in Technical and Further Education Colleges
Graduate School of Business The Leadership of Entrepreneurialism in Technical and Further Education Colleges Peter J Whitley This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Business Administration of Curtin University of Technology September 2004 Declaration This thesis contains no material, which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. Signature: …………………………………………………………….. Date: …………………………………. Acknowledgement Like many others before me I have found that undertaking extensive research to develop a major thesis requires considerable time and effort and the support of significant other persons. I would like to acknowledge and express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor Dr Rick Ladyshewsky whose guidance, coaching and support enabled the development of this thesis. Rick’s endeavours ensured that a focus was maintained throughout the research and provided opportunities to discuss and debate characteristics and issues as the research progressed. Similarly my gratitude goes to Dr Colleen Liston, my co-supervisor, for her assistance through this process. In every endeavour of this nature family support is both essential and critical and I am extremely grateful for the patience, support and encouragement provided by Alison, Clint and Michael who as a result of demands on my time missed many family weekends during the progress of this work. Finally I am thankful to all my colleagues who work and operate within the TAFE system throughout Australia because it was through their commitment to openly discuss entrepreneurial changes and the processes by which they are achieved within the TAFE environment that culminated in this thesis. -

A Survey of Cdio Implementation Globally – Effects on Educational Quality
A SURVEY OF CDIO IMPLEMENTATION GLOBALLY – EFFECTS ON EDUCATIONAL QUALITY Johan Malmqvist Department of Product and Production Development Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, SWEDEN Ron Hugo Department of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering University of Calgary, Calgary, CANADA Malin Kjellberg Division of Engineering Education Research Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, SWEDEN ABSTRACT The CDIO approach to engineering education was introduced in the early 2000’s. Some universities have gained considerable long-term experience in applying the approach, and consequently it seems timely to summarize and evaluate those experiences. This paper thus reports the results of a survey distributed to all members of the CDIO Initiative in October 2014. The aims of the survey were to: • Map out where and in what programs/disciplines CDIO is currently applied • Evaluate the effects on outcomes, the perceived benefits, the limitations, any barriers to implementation, and ascertain future development needs Forty-seven universities from twenty-two countries participated in the survey. The main findings from the survey include the following: • The most common engineering disciplines in which CDIO is implemented are Mechanical, Electrical, and Computer Engineering. However, many CDIO schools have also implemented CDIO in Industrial, Civil and Chemical Engineering. • The main motives for choosing to adapt CDIO are; ambitions to make engineering education more authentic; the need for a systematic methodology for educational design; and the desire to include more design and innovation in curricula. • Most CDIO implementations successfully achieve both goals for learning and for external recognition of educational quality.

Cdio Faculty Development Course – Built-In Implementation
CDIO FACULTY DEVELOPMENT COURSE – BUILT-IN IMPLEMENTATION Panagiota Papadopoulou, Kanishk Bhadani, Erik Hulthén, Johan Malmqvist Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden Kristina Edström KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden ABSTRACT To successfully implement the CDIO approach in engineering programs, a holistic approach is required, connecting the philosophy of the program with teaching and learning activities in the courses. One influential component in this interaction is faculty members and their competence in providing integrated learning experiences, in using active experiential learning methods, and in assessing student learning (CDIO Standard 10). As an effort to support such faculty development, a group of universities has been conducting activities directly aiming to enable and drive CDIO implementation in the participating universities (mainly within the EIT Raw Materials programme). In this paper, we will continue reporting and critically reflecting on these CDIO-based faculty development endeavours. Initially, a faculty development course was launched in 2016 at Chalmers University of Technology and offered to participants from other universities (Bhadani et al., 2017). The paper starts by outlining the adaptation of the course into its second version, followed by investigating the experiences from the first group in 2018. The course was designed to suit both experienced and novice faculty. It offered a staged introduction to CDIO implementation alternated with sessions in which participants worked on their own course development. The rationale for this design was to increase the direct usefulness for the participants, in that they should feel engaged and involved during learning and be able to immediately apply their learning to their own course. To estimate the impact of the course on participants’ actual course design and implementation, participants’ final presentations and feedback were analysed. -
Australia Helps Next Generation of Thai Students to Excel Export Case Study | December 2018
AUSTRALIA HELPS NEXT GENERATION OF THAI STUDENTS TO EXCEL EXPORT CASE STUDY | DECEMBER 2018 Countries around the world are looking for ways to help more students excel in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects. In Thailand, Australian institutions are helping train the next generation of STEM teachers and instilling greater passion in the fields of study. A professional development workshop on robotics for teachers It is widely recognised that industries of the future as part of the Chevron Enjoy Science project in Thailand. will require different skill-sets to succeed. This includes a new generation of workers with ‘Australian education institutions have had a capabilities in STEM subjects.

Built Pedagogy Education Design Is a Specialised Field with Different
University of Melbourne New Building for the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning Expression of Interest Built Pedagogy Education design is a specialised field with different characteristics and benchmarks from other building types Paul Morgan Architects specializes in the design of university and TAFE buildings. A feature of the buildings is the idea of permeability: the activities of students and staff are revealed to passers-by. This animates the internal spaces and advertises the functions that occur within. It is about the ‘theatre’ of architecture, and can be seen in the Box Hill Institute Trade Facility and CGIT Learning Centre on this page. Advanced structural and servicing techniques are demonstrated in the proposed 6 Star Green Star Vicurban Chisholm project.
