Graduate Attribute Mapping With the Extended CDIO Framework

The CDIO (Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate) Initiative has been globally recognised as an enabler for engineering education reform. With the CDIO process, the CDIO Standards and the CDIO Syllabus, many scholarly contributions have been made around cultural change, curriculum reform and learning environments. In the Australasian region, reform is gaining significant momentum within the engineering education community, the profession, and higher education institutions. This paper presents the CDIO Syllabus cast into the Australian context by mapping it to the Engineers Australia Graduate Attributes, the Washington Accord Graduate Attributes and the Queensland University of Technology Graduate Capabilities. Furthermore, in recognition that many secondary schools and technical training institutions offer introductory engineering technology subjects, this paper presents an extended self-rating framework suited for recognising developing levels of proficiency at a preparatory level. A demonstrator mapping tool has been created to demonstrate the application of this extended graduate attribute mapping framework as a precursor to an integrated curriculum information model.

Addressing Challenges for Internationalisation and Mobility in Engineering Through CDIO Standards

There is a growing need for international transparency of engineering qualifications, and mechanisms to support and facilitate student mobility. In response, there are a number of global initiatives attempting to address these needs, particularly in Europe, North America and Australia. The Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate (CDIO) Initiative has a set of standards, competencies, and proficiency levels developed through a global community of practice. It is a well-structured framework in which best-practice internationalisation and student mobility can be embedded. However, the current 12 CDIO Standards do not address international qualifications or student mobility. Based on an environmental scan of global activities, the underpinning principles of best practice are identified and form the basis of the proposed 13th CDIO Standard — “Internationalization and Mobility”.

Smooth Banach spaces and approximations

If E and F are real Banach spaces let C^p,q(E, F) O ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞, denote those maps from E to F which have p continuous Frechet derivatives of which the first q derivatives are bounded. A Banach space E is defined to be C^p,q smooth if C^p,q(E,R) contains a nonzero function with bounded support. This generalizes the standard C^p smoothness classification.

If an L^p space, p ≥ 1, is C^q smooth then it is also C^q,q smooth so that in particular L^p for p an even integer is C^∞,∞ smooth and L^p for p an odd integer is C^p-1,p-1 smooth. In general, however, a C^p smooth B-space need not be C^p,p smooth. C_o is shown to be a non-C^2,2 smooth B-space although it is known to be C^∞ smooth. It is proved that if E is C^p,1 smooth then C_o(E) is C^p,1 smooth and if E has an equivalent C^p norm then c_o(E) has an equivalent C^p norm.

Various consequences of C^p,q smoothness are studied. If f ϵ C^p,q(E,F), if F is C^p,q smooth and if E is non-C^p,q smooth, then the image under f of the boundary of any bounded open subset U of E is dense in the image of U. If E is separable then E is C^p,q smooth if and only if E admits C^p,q partitions of unity; E is C^p,psmooth, p ˂∞, if and only if every closed subset of E is the zero set of some C^P function.

f ϵ C^q(E,F), 0 ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞, is said to be C_p,q approximable on a subset U of E if for any ϵ ˃ 0 there exists a g ϵ C^p(E,F) satisfying

sup/xϵU, O≤k≤q ‖ D^k f(x) - D^k g(x) ‖ ≤ ϵ.

It is shown that if E is separable and C^p,q smooth and if f ϵ C^q(E,F) is C_p,q approximable on some neighborhood of every point of E, then F is C_p,q approximable on all of E.

In general it is unknown whether an arbitrary function in C¹(l², R) is C_2,1 approximable and an example of a function in C¹(l², R) which may not be C_2,1 approximable is given. A weak form of C_∞,q, q≥1, to functions in C^q(l², R) is proved: Let {U_α} be a locally finite cover of l² and let {T_α} be a corresponding collection of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on l². Then for any f ϵ C^q(l²,F) such that for all α

sup ‖ D^k(f(x)-g(x))[T_αh]‖ ≤ 1.
