Abstract

The paper deals with the introduction of creative engineering design education in School of Mechanical Engineering, Yonsei University. The course is referred to as Creative Mechanical Engineering Design (1) for 2nd-year undergraduates who newly enter a major in mechanical engineering. This course emphasizes creative thinking and practical experiences to students by learning engineering design skills, realizing their idea through problem based learning (PBL) and design project and recognizing actual results of a product. The paper describes course contents, and discusses students’ responses to lecture, PBL and design projects.

본 논문에서는 연세대학교 기계공학부에서 개설하는 창의공학설계 교과내용에 대한 소개를 다룬다. 교과목 명은 창의설계프로젝트(1)이며, 본 과목은 기계공학전공으로 새로이 진입하는 학부 2학년 학생들을 대상으로 창의적 사고와 체험적 학습을 기반으로 공학설계능력을 습득하고 문제중심학습 및 설계프로젝트 수행을 통해 아이디어를 구현하며 실제 설계된 제품의 결과에 대한 중요성을 인식하도록 교육한다. 본 논문에서는 교과목의 자세한 구성과 수업내용에 대해 설명하고 수업내용, 문제중심학습 및 설계프로젝트를 통해 평가된 학생들의 반응에 대해 서술한다.
