These students also expressed their desireto join the workforce that connects such businesses. The students also expressed how they werelearning engineering by dealing with real and relevant problems and the challenges of learningnew technical vocabulary in another language. As with the first prompt, students mentioneddeveloping the professional skill of working in a team.Figure 3. How did this bilingual, international engineering course differ from otherengineering courses?The third prompt asked the students to discuss the challenges with the course.

Alesson on design heuristics is included to facilitate brain storming sessions. The use of decisionmodels to evaluate alternatives is required. Students also analyze the carbon footprint ofpotential courses of action and use this information in their decision models. In addition, allprojects include design of

Key components of service-learning include critical reflection and reciprocity [3].Reflection requires that students articulate the experience, while reciprocity requires that studentsaddress the real needs of sponsor to meet the learning outcomes. Because of reciprocity, theseprojects are more likely to be viewed by students as worthwhile given the creative freedom, thefeelings of empathy or for personal satisfaction [1]. Notwithstanding, service-learning projectscan bring risks such as an ill-defined project scope by not having a team of engineers define it, alack of direction by not having a

The main objective of the coursesis to educate students who are expected to work after their graduation as global engineers tobe the support and driving force of Japan in the English-speaking world of the 21 st century.The global engineer is difficult to define itself, however, he/she will be generally required tohave acquired at least the five abilities: basic engineering knowledge in English,communication ability in English, creativity, management ability, and international sense (1,2).Kanazawa Institute of Technology (KIT) (3), Japan has made to start at its

As illustrated, we included a number of exercises, topics, games,presentations, and opportunities for hands-on experience. The schedule was created such that allbasic technical skills were taught during the first two days of the workshop, and then on day 3 ofthe workshop, we included activities to help participants practice these skills.Our curriculum was devised to touch on interdisciplinary topics over different days, which couldappeal to a wide range of interests (i.e., art, music, community involvement).

In this sense, it is relevant to appreciate how the attributes WA9(Individual and teamwork) and WA10 (Communication), traditionally associated to softskills, are interlinked with research, favoring the deployment of technical skills. The former isconsistent with the approach seen in [15], in the sense that solving problems involves muchmore than merely applying technical skills.The results corroborate the above given that, for the three groups involved, dimension threecorrelates highly.
