Abstract

This study aims to contemplate the pedagogy of the industry-oriented capstone course (IOCC) in technological colleges and universities in order to cultivate students' ability, by project course from real industry problems after an internship and try to alleviate the gap of education-employment. Literature review, expert review and the content analysis were applied to develop a pedagogical model of IOCC. The courses in this model includes a two months off-campus internship, and the capstone course in separate semesters. It includes six stages: before off-campus internship (Week 0), during internship (Week 1~8), after internship (Week 9), capstone course preparation (Week 10), and capstone course implementation (Week 11 ~ 37), and capstone course presentation (Week 38~39). The conclusions point out that the teaching contents of IOCC developed by this study can cultivate students' problem-solving ability for industry. © 2021 IEEE.
