ITS Global Engagement (GE) proudly presents another short program that is collaboratively initiated by ITS Surabaya and Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT), Japan. The short program is named Global Project Based Learning (GPBL), with the theme of “Mathematical challenges towards disease outbreaks: Analysis and prediction of COVID-19 pandemics using mathematical models and big data analytics”. Unlike last year, the short program was held virtually.
This program was held every Saturday, 7, 14, 21, and 28 November 2020. There are 30 students of ITS and 14 students of SIT. All of them attended the program enthusiastically. They discussed their project in a breakout room of the Zoom application and also got to know each other through the process. Throughout the entire program, their performance was assessed by the professors of SIT and ITS. The professors of ITS are Prof. Subchan, Prof. Iqbal and Prof. Sena, while the four professors from SIT are Prof. Fukuda, Prof. Nakatsu, Prof. Zhai and Prof. Ishiwata. ITS and SIT students are mixed and divided into 7 groups, then initiated their projects. Each project has its own unique and interesting topic. The project’s titles are as follows,
This program was also enlivened by some cultural exchanges that are delivered by the volunteers of ITS GE. In the first week, ITS GE invited SIT to explore our campus virtually through Campus Tour with fun mini games for SIT students. Continuing to the second week, we introduced Batik Lilin to SIT students including a session of Kahoot mini game. And then, for the third week was quite different because we asked all of the participants to try one of Indonesia’s traditional dances, which is Tor-Tor dance.
Finally, in the last week we introduced Indonesian Culture and Diversity. In the end, we would like to congratulate the awarding for groups and individual for their amazing achievements:

Thank you to all the participants in the group project and mini games. A memorable moment when SIT students learn how to dance tor-tor. Glad to have all participants enjoy the event. May the event be beneficial for all the participants, committees, and professors. Hopefully this event can be held again with different themes and excitement in the near future.
