Abstract


As the 21st century has been marked as the age of 4Cs, the necessity of educating creative engineers has become a challenge for all educators, especially those teaching Humanities. Using Hybrid Pedagogy as a methodological approach to teaching, which strives to establish interconnectedness of learning, teaching, and technology in our lives, engineering students at the University of Kragujevac were engaged in the international celebration project Frankenreads. These students successfully materialized a series of ‘engineering’ project outcomes; they created a website, a video, a 3D visualization, an exhibition of book cover designs, a moving robot, and a dramatic enactment. The project assignments served as a bridge to students’ future professions in an event agenda that could have easily been a real employment project. The paper finally explores how the implementation of authentic humanities-oriented projects creates more meaningful and impactful engineering educational contexts.
