Project Description

Through the support of this TD project, learning modules will be developed and deployed in ENTR1001, which is designed as a common core course without prerequisite and made available to all UG students.

  • These learning modules will be in a form of workshops (2-3 working days or 10-15 hours)
  • The pedagogy can be varied can be hands-on workshops, lectures, videos, or lab works.
  • Two modules will be developed in this one-year timeframe:
  1. App prototyping module for non-software engineers
    • Courses offered by SENG and SBM on apps development
    • Targeted for programmers or high level business students
    • Learners will be taught with hands on experience on how a mobile app can be developed through persona scenario, storyboarding to generate mockups for testing and try out flows with potential users.
  2. Makers-lab hardware prototyping module
    • Developed by the SENG to encourage hardware prototyping
    • To encourage hand-on trial and error within the lab to solve a business or social problem
    • To encourage to try out hardware ideas through rapid prototyping tools in the Markers lab to create products for trials
