CDIO is a framework of engineering education curricula for developing next-generation engineers. The guideline for CDIO was produced by CDIO Initiative in 2004. The CDIO concept is based on the design process in actual systems and product development, and the educational program following this concept is becoming a global standard in engineering education. By taking this educational program, learners can acquire the abilities to "conceive," "design," "implement," and "operate" as defined by CDIO Initiative. Kanazawa Institute of Technology (hereinafter called "our college") joined CDIO Initiative, and is promoting advanced engineering education in Japan. Our college adopted the project-based learning (PBL) method in the creative subjects "Design Project I" and "Design Project II," to conduct engineering design education for improving students skills to detect and solve problems. In this situation, this paper evaluates students' projects in Design Project with the CDIO concept, and mentions measures for improving the quality of students' projects from the viewpoint of the CDIO concept.

This paper described the design of engineering education system using Long-Distance-Controlled Robots (LDCR). In the LDCR, the players operate the robots on one physical site via the Internet. The students' international exchange might not work out only by preparing the hardware of the LDCR. It is not easy to promote the project because there are a language barrier and a difference of the culture between students of foreign countries. Therefore, there
