Abstract

As science advances at a great pace, transforming businesses and the industry, companies reassess the skills and competencies that are demanded from new candidates, shifting from the old model that valued specialized knowledge to one that prioritizes skills, like critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration. Higher Education follows suit, as many Universities across the world redesign their programs towards a skills oriented education. In this paper, we discuss the applied model approach as an effective scheme to achieve a skills based education. We provide an illustrating example of the implementation of this model in the Data Acquisition Lab, in the 8th semester of the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Educators program at the School of Pedagogical and Technological Education (ASPETE).
