Among them, participating in theassessment and continuous improvement of engineering programs is the biggestchallenge for teacher. According to the findings of Engineering Change, the potentialimpact of EC2000 on student learning includes three aspects - curriculum, teachingmethods, and teacher culture. [15] These are actually important aspects of academicpower participating in the quality assurance in engineering education.
