On August 2-7 2024, the Faculty of Science, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, in collaboration with Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Ritsumeikan University, and Universitas Negeri Jakarta, organised the Global Collaborative Program 2024.
Students participating in the program got to develop multiple 21st-century skills. They learnt how to interview and went into the field at Discovery Learning Library, Thungkhru, to interview the library’s users and staff members. After that, they explored the design thinking process and, with the help of the Innovation Exchange Center, KMUTT, made a prototype and learnt to use the Tinkercode. The students did their final presentation on August 7th, 2024, at Science Connect, KMUTT.
This program has been a valuable experience for all participants. We are looking for more collaborative programs in the future.
