DESCRIPTION:Soft skills are meanwhile represented in almost all engineering
  curricula. Yet\, the integration is often artificial even though these sk
 ills are particularly helpful already in the early stages of the studies. 
 In this webinar\, we will discuss combining concepts from art to teach com
 plex engineering problems\, already at undergraduate levels. This helps to
  activate soft skills such as creativity\, communication\, critical thinki
 ng\, and teamwork to better understand complex concepts in ICT. Based on f
 irst experiences from courses taught at universities\, we will discuss bes
 t practices of integrating soft skills with hard engineering facts - using
  art as an integrative concept. We see this as a first step towards widesp
 read use of such a new teaching methodology for engineering-focused study 
 programs in the EU and beyond.\n\nCo-sponsored by: TU Berlin\n\nSpeaker(s)

 lmost all engineering curricula. Yet\, the integration is often artificial
  even though these skills are particularly helpful already in the early st
 ages of the studies. In this webinar\, we will discuss combining concepts 
 from art to teach complex engineering problems\, already at undergraduate 
 levels. This helps to activate soft skills such as creativity\, communicat
 ion\, critical thinking\, and teamwork to better understand complex concep
 ts in ICT. Based on first experiences from courses taught at universities\
 , we will discuss best practices of integrating soft skills with hard engi
 neering facts - using art as an integrative concept. We see this as a firs
 t step towards widespread use of such a new teaching methodology for engin
 eering-focused study programs in the EU and beyond.</p><br /><br />Agenda:
