Founder & Executive Director, IUCEE and Dean Emeritus, University of Massachusetts Lowell, USA
Learner-centric pedagogy is the key to improving the quality of teaching and learning processes. Technological tools, enhanced by Artificial Intelligence, make it possible for us to be more effective in designing curricula, creating dynamic classroom environments and improving formative assessment strategies. Our improved understanding of brain science is guiding us in the strategic use of these technological tools.
Faculty at several higher education institutions in India, under the Indo Universal Collaboration for Engineering Education (IUCEE), have started exploring these approaches, in their efforts to produce better quality graduates who can contribute to industry and society. In this talk, some initial results from their work will be presented.
Dr. Krishna Vedula is Founder & Executive Director, Indo Universal Collaboration for Engineering Education (IUCEE) and Dean Emeritus, University of Massachusetts Lowell, USA.
Dr. Vedula has B.Tech (IIT Bombay, 1967), M.S. (Drexel University, 1969) and Ph.D. (Michigan Tech University, 1980) degrees in Materials Engineering. He has 40 years academic teaching and research experience in materials science and engineering as well as in engineering administration, at Case Western Reserve University, Iowa State University and University of Massachusetts Lowell in the US. He has received numerous awards in recognition of his global leadership in engineering education including ASEE Fellow (2011), ASM Fellow (1995) and was President, International Federation for Engineering Education Societies (IFEES), 2010-12. Dr. Vedula is Chief Editor, Journal of Engineering Education Transformations and has been Co-Chair of eight International Conferences on Transformations in Engineering Education.
Dr. Vedula is now based in Hyderabad, India, working with IUCEE to improve quality and global relevance of engineering education in India. During the past 17 years, IUCEE has catalyzed significant transformations in engineering education in more than 100 institutions all over India.
Chairman of EduNet World Association, Germany
Technical education is facing profound change: While digitalization is advancing rapidly, access to high-quality, practice-oriented training remains limited in many regions. The Edunet World Association (EWA) aims to create new opportunities for high-quality, practice-oriented technical training for all learners worldwide through open and networked learning infrastructures.
Launched in 2024, the Global Remote Lab Initiative – a collaboration with IAOE and LACCEI – aims to create a sustainable infrastructure for digital learning labs in engineering education based on modern cloud and IoT technology that is open, scalable, and globally available.
Artificial intelligence is also playing an increasingly important role in this: It can personalize learning processes, support learners with intelligent assistance systems, and contribute to process optimization in digital teaching and learning factories such as the All Electric Society (AES) Campus in Zhengzhou, China. The AES Campus is an international flagship project for cloud-based, energy-autonomous, and AI-supported manufacturing for the smart and green manufacturing of the future based on the principles of the All Electric Society – developed with state-of-the-art automation technology and supported by EWA. The AES Campus is intended to demonstrate how Industry 4.0, sustainability, and education can be interconnected.
To ensure the quality of these new global learning formats and make them internationally comparable, EWA is currently developing a comprehensive Certification System for courses, trainers, and institutions. This system not only enables the recognition of continuing education achievements across national borders but also supports the strategic integration of partners from industry and business.
The keynote address will demonstrate concrete ways in which education, technology, and international partnerships can contribute to implementing the goal of SDG 4 – quality education for all – in practice.
EWA invites education stakeholders, companies, and policymakers worldwide to help shape a global, smart education ecosystem – with a special focus on sustainable partnerships and pilot projects in India.
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Reinhard Langmann is a co-founder and the Chairman of the EduNet World Association e.V. and a board member of the German association New Automation e.V.
He was a full professor for Process Infomatics at the University of Applied Sciences in Düsseldorf from 1993 to 2022. He has been working in the field of automation and real-time systems since 1983, with a special focus on Internet technologies in industrial automation since 1996.
Dr. Langmann has participated in national and international research projects as coordinator and co-coordinator on the topic of Industry 4.0 & Future Engineering Education and has authored 9 textbooks and more than 50 papers in professional journals, as well as about 75 presentations at national and international conferences. He is a member of several scientific programme committees and editorial boards of scientific journals.
