Industry Participation in Teaching – An Example

På svenska

Author

  • Niclas Andersson

Summary, in English

Industry participation in teaching is often appreciated and inquired for by many students as it connects theory of academia with the reality of practitioners in industry. However, the industry involvement is often delimited to occasional guest lecturers or study visits and as such, it supplements the traditional, academic, teaching activities. The course, which is the subject of this paper, provides an example where the reality of industry is put in the first place and where traditional lectures provide a supplement. This paper describes a case where the industry involvement clearly promotes students’ motivation and performance, and consequently, fosters the learning process.
