DECART: Designing higher Education Curricula for Agility, Resilience & Transformations

DECART official meeting hosted by Institut Teknolgi Del in Laguboti, Indonesia - PM4

We have conducted the fourth DECART official meeting hosted by Institut Teknologi Del in Laguboti, Indonesia, on 24th – 27th June 2024. The higher educators gathered from diverse universities to discuss the DECART project, mainly the work progress of Work Packages 2 and 3. A total of five higher educators from abroad universities, namely Vilnius University (VU), University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), and IMT Atlantique, attended this meeting onsite; meanwhile, the rest of the university partners from RU (Reykjavik University), RWTH Aachen University and two members of UKZN took part online. At this four-day meeting, IT Del also invited lecturers with experience in developing higher education curricula to enrich the perspective of resilience and transformation in designing curricula.  

On the first and second day, the IMT Atlantique team, as the Work Packages 2 coordinator, directed all the meeting members to form a group to quickly test a serious game beta version using collaboration tools Miro. Each group member should collaborate on a separate page of Miro to explore how the game runs according to the instructions provided, with different potential VUCA crises to discuss with the group members. This game aims to produce a rationale for the conclusion of how the curriculum is resilient regarding the effects of the crisis. On the last day, the UKZN team, as the Work Packages 3 coordinator, led all the meeting members to identify essential stakeholders in designing the curriculum and examining how the stakeholders are involved in the curriculum transformation.
