So what do we (as teachers) want from our graduates?
To achieve their potential
“an awareness of opportunity”
To possess “graduateness”
What does industry want from our graduates?
“A good skills base integrated with subject knowledge”

Communication
Teamwork
Planning and
Organising
Problem Solving
Initiative
Adaptability Numeracy
Computer
Literacy
Self-Reliance
Graduate skills should be integrated into the academic experience and be based around specific subject knowledge.

Lego MINDSTORMS
Relatively cheap and modular
Students are familiar with the Lego concept
Students can see components reflected in the terminology they are familiar with
Touch sensor, light sensor, servo motors, microcontrollers

and the concepts of programmability.

But we are conscious that it is too easy to trivialise with a kit like this.
It has to be thought through carefully.
And finally
