The purpose of this study was to determinate location of MBKM internship based on clusterring student's skills with K-Means. This is important to detect some of student’s skills which will become the output of the university that must be recorded early so that they were truly ready to compete. To analyze the skills of some students, the Mathematics Education study program at the University of Argopuro Jember conducted a survey of additional skills outside of lectures. This survey is carried out regularly every year as material for reporting on the development of students' skills and qualities. Thus the skills possessed by students can be monitored and evaluated whether in the future special skills were needed that must be given to students. The skills of students who become points in the survey include: 1)Foreign language skills, 2)IT Skills, 3)Public Speaking and Management Skills, 4)Analitical and Graphic Design Skills, 5)Microteaching Skills. We clustering 67 respondent, it is our student at Universitas Argopuro Jember in fiveth. Cause of outlier in 7 respondent, we just make clustering with K-means with 60 respondent. Based on K-Means clusterring we have 3 cluster .It shows that cluster 1 has 32 respondents, cluster 2 has 21 respondents and cluster 3 has 7 respondents. Abd also on the result and discussion, we knew that cluster 1 with 32 respondent has more skills, it were foreign language, public speaking skills and microteaching skills. So the internship locations that match these skills clusters such as LBB then Publication Offices such as Radio, Jawapos, etc. For second conclusion, we knew that cluster 2 with 21 respondent have more skills except for microteaching skills. Appropriate internship places for these students are in administrative offices, local government offices, etc.And for third conclusion, that cluster 3 with 7 respondent have more skills too except public speaking but they have a middle skills in microteaching. The office or internship location where we can suggest is Dinas Parawisata, Perbankan that needs good communication and good team work, etc

Using a Brand Identity-Focused Project Structure to Improve the Competencies of Product Design Students

It is essential to reflect the strategic connotations of the brand on the products while creating and developing a product design that fits the brand identity. Therefore, for a company, it is a critical issue to place the right messages that support the strategic brand identity in the design elements. From the designers' point of view, they are expected to have design skills such as analyzing a brand's uniqueness and brand knowledge and reflecting the results of these analyses on the aesthetics, function and overall meaning of the product. For this reason, as a part of the Industrial Design curriculum, brand identity focused product design has been restructured in Atılım University, Industrial Design program. In this studio course, the aim was for design students to acquire skills of brand identity and product identity analysis, in addition to basic design knowledge and skills. During 16 weeks, the data were collected by doing a participant observation and conducting semi-structured interviews with the course students. The data gathered from the semi-structured interviews and participant observation were analysed by using an inductive coding approach. Thus, product design suggestions that were suitable for the identity of the brand were analysed with the questions asked by the instructors during the design process. The results show that the questions asked by the instructors and the examples they gave, led the students to research, think, question, understand and make sense of the importance of information. As a result, the students obtained design outputs suitable for brand identity.

Using “Live” Public Sector Projects in Design Teaching to Transform Urban Green Infrastructure in South Africa

Urban green infrastructure is not acknowledged in the Global South for the critical social and ecological functions it can provide. Contextual design solutions and innovative approaches are urgently needed to transform the status quo. University-local government collaboration could be a way to encourage new thinking, new roles and design skills to develop solutions to these complex problems. This paper presents a case study analysis of such a collaboration. Qualitative research was conducted to establish the degree to which the exposure to real-life projects stimulates postgraduate design students’ transformative learning. The researchers also inquired into the benefits of the collaboration for the municipality. The participants’ reflections were recorded by means of anonymous questionnaires. The findings show that the live project created a municipal setting for seeking alternative solutions in design processes and outcomes. For the students, the project created rich social dynamics and an interplay of familiarity and uncertainty, which aided transformative learning. The students’ deeper learning indicates greater social empathy, reconsidering the role of the profession, greater design process flexibility, and learning and valuing skills across disciplines. The findings hold promise for a more just and sustainable future built environment through collaborations that transform the design professionals involved, the outcomes they pursue, and the processes they follow.

Design Methodology and Tools in Factory of the Future

This paper presents a design method and tool developed to support the skill forming activities in the DigiFoF network (https://www.digifof.eu/). The focus is on training of manufacturing system design skills both as HEI education and vocational training, but preliminary design of new manufacturing systems is also supported (e.g in the development of small business process scenarios). We proposed a model-based methodology for solving of the manufacturing system design problems The methodology and the supporting tool are centred around a less abstract Domain-Specific Modelling Language (DSML). The language is easy to learn due to its few components. A modelling and simulation environment named Digital Production Planner Tool (DPPT) was generated from the metamodel of the DSML. The degree of abstraction used by this tool corresponds well to the intended use in training and preliminary design. Our method incorporates by design the possibility to impose constraints at the modelling language level to limit the modelling space to feasible/possible solutions. The resulting tool enforces these constraints in the use and supports the development of feasible designs even by inexperienced designers. The access to the conceptual model allows the translation of the model to other modelling language like Petri net. This extends the support for the design methodology. The whitepaper presents a use case for the developed method and tool: the design of a chocolate manufacturing line.

Digital Indigenous Craft: Expressing Māori Culture through Computational tools in Architecture

<p>Within present architectural discourse, there is universal concern that contemporary architectural processes efface the culture of indigenous communities, resulting in the homogenisation of architecture globally. The imminent question therefore is; how can the assimilation of digital tools and indigenous culture be a catalyst to empower culturally embodied architecture that responds to our indigenous Māori identity and spirit, without falling into architectural homogeneity? Working in direct conjunction with Ngai Tāmanuhi-ri Iwi (tribal group), on the poignant site, Te Kurī-a-Pāoa (Young Nicks Head), this thesis initiates dialogue to investigate the amalgamation of progressive digital fabrication techniques and the rich cultural identity and Mātauranga Māori (cultural knowledge) of Ngai Tāmanuhiri. Subsequently, a pavilion, incorporatinga locally inspired ‘whai’ (stingray) motif has been designed providing an architectural framework to facilitate design-led research. One-uku (clay), has been identified early as an indigenous material with enormous potential and led to the development of custom-built additive fabrication tools that can elevate this abundant local material for use within the architectural sphere. A secondary focus of this research is the development of computational (parametric) and analogue workflows to enable the production of architectural scale ceramic modules. Ultimately, this thesis argues that when computational design skills are ulilised alongside indigenous knowledge, digitally produced artefacts are capable of becoming meaningful for all.</p>
