Evaluation of the Result and Benefit from international summer camp using CDIO framework

Abstract

In this study, we are going to display the result and evaluation of the 1st CDIO summer camp hosted by Feng Chia University in July 2018. Forty-five students from four countries and five different schools, Taiwan, Singapore, Vietnam and Malaysia, have worked together and completed the project of “i-Night Market”. The greatest challenge in this camp is that the students had to go through the process of “conceive, design, implement and operate” in just 1 week, and also, to make the actual product prototype. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the camp, we’ve used the Kirkpatrick Model (1959) to design the questionnaire and asked the students to fill it out in the beginning and at the end of the camp. Post project appraisal has shown that the CDIO framework is very suitable for operating a camp and letting the students understand the learning objective of each phase. Seeing the actual performances from the students, we think the CDIO Summer Camp in the future could be adjusted to the “online and offline” framework. Students could then finish the C and D phases on the online platform and begin with the I and O phases right after forming the team.
