The development of the software for the education of the three-dimensional model is done, and the purpose of this research is in applying it to the three-dimensional Computer Graphics education.
Students can learn the making processes of the three-dimensional model on screen of personal computer, without relying on any other CG system or using a program language. It could get the next effect by using this software.
The software contributes to the understanding of the three-dimensional Computer Graphics, because students can acquire basic concepts systematically, and make the three-dimensional model in an interactive manner.

Engineering is composed of "knowledge on engineering itself" which has been obtained with enormous efforts up to the present and "method for outcome connected with the knowledge". The latter includes (1) creativity, (2) power of practice, (3) communication skill, and (4) technical skill. The "creativity" in engineering field can be defined as the capability by which one can create or design the novel knowledge, engineering method, and equipment. The training for creativity can be divided into three categories. They are training for fundamental knowledge, training for direct approach, and miscellaneous knowledge and skill. The power of practice is one of the skills by which one can plan and design actual method or equipment applying creative result or knowledge. It needs the strong will, the technique for practice, and the sense of purpose. Furthermore, the ability on communication and skill are also discussed in engineering education. Those educational program is defined as "skill course" and the subjects and the credits for the course are also proposed. About 20 credits are recommendable for the skill course. The effect of Japanese traditional custom and cultural climate on engineering education is discussed in addition to the above presentation.

This paper reports a study on the examinations, the case-studies performed during the class, and the re-evaluation at the end of a term for students. And the result shows that to increase their professional knowledge it is necessary to conduct a case-study, evaluate the students every class, and re-test at the end of a term, in addition to several methods as described on the previous report(3).

As we enter the age of mega-competition, needs to quickly expedite development are rapidly becoming stronger, and at the same time to quickly build up responsibility and capability in new employees. In the process of investigating company needs, new employee proficiency, and changes in the college curriculum, problems came to light. We will give a report on countermeasures we performed for these problems.
