「社会実装教育」の背景を考える

～イノベーションを目指す工学教育～

抄録

This paper studies the background of “Social Implementation Education” as an engineering education to accelerate innovation. The aim of “Social Implementation Education” is to give students a situation in which the students must communicate with non-expert users, because the realization of innovation needs to be achieved by developers and users mutually communicating their intents and perceptions. This method also provides very good opportunities for students to apply their engineering knowledge to solve problems in actual use. We expect that it will help students to develop their skills in problem solving as well as in high-level engineering literacy. As shown in the analysis of the process of innovation, these effects of “Social Implementation Education” will contribute to achieving innovation.
