P-02 Teaching Engineering Literacy to Almost All-Majors in a Single Classroom

Abstract

The fundamentally-required literacy in higher education, even for non-engineering students, has been modified along with the change of social demands, which includes more engineering-tinted basics, such as computer programming, machine learning, artificial intelligence, digital fabrication, and biology. This trend is being accelerated by the rise of artificial intelligence and the worldwide spread of various pandemics. However, from the author’s experience, it seems that the currently required subjects are not the same as what has been believed necessary in traditional engineering pedagogical approaches. In this talk, we share our experiences and lessons learned to teach mathematics and programming to more than one hundred students of machine learning from almost-all majors, in a single classroom.
