Development of the Competence Evaluation Coordinated the Learning Materials and Teaching Methods

The objectives of this research were to develop the competence evaluation for the global engineer resource development coordinated the learning materials and teaching methods. We could determine that the generic skill concerning the global engineer development consisted of three axes: the critical thinking and the collaborative thinking, the creative thinking. We built the assessment rubric and problem-posing manual for evaluating generic skill. This research based on an international test involving five countries including Japan, estimated these results:We could understand that the characteristics of competence depended on engineering education in each country. As the grade rose, total of competences tended to rise. In every grade, the score of critical thinking became high, and the collaborative thinking score became low. This meant that the learning materials and teaching methods of engineer development agreed with growing of the critical thinking.
