A new standard for capstone design for university education innovation in the AI ​​era!
Capstone Design Guide for Reference and Immediate Application

It has been over 20 years since capstone design education began in the engineering education accreditation system and expanded to all academic fields. While field experience has accumulated, the systematization of pedagogical theory and methodology remains inadequate.
Especially at a time when the AI ​​era demands a paradigm shift in the existing capstone design education, the lack of a comprehensive guide that integrates theoretical basis and practical methodology has emerged as a major challenge in the field of education.

To fill this gap, 『Capstone Design Education in the AI ​​Era』 was published, and it stands out in that it systematically organizes capstone design education while also presenting a new educational methodology to respond to the era of AI convergence education.
By organizing accumulated field experience into pedagogical theories and methodologies, we present educational designs based on academic evidence rather than a simple list of cases, and we have concretized the transition from the existing problem-solving-centered model to one that integrates creativity, collaboration, and technology utilization capabilities.
Additionally, it includes practical guides that can be applied immediately, covering everything from curriculum operation to intellectual property utilization, to enhance practical usability in the field.

The book's structure is structured around the concept of capstone design, its development process, learning effects, and the role of instructors in the theoretical foundation (Chapters 1-3), while practical methodology (Chapters 4-5) presents various operational cases and strategies and evaluations of team learning.
Chapter 6, "Future Response," covers AI-integrated capstone design, while Chapter 7, "Disseminating Results," covers intellectual property rights, patent processes, and ways to protect students' creative output.
Each chapter is structured to provide theory, practice, and application strategies that instructors can utilize in their own teaching contexts.

This book was co-authored by professors who have been teaching and researching at Chungnam National University, Seoul National University, and Korea National University of Education.
It is characterized by being a reliable guide that combines academic evidence and practical examples, rather than simply anecdotes.
The writing team consists of Professor Park Soo-jung (Department of Education, Chungnam National University), Senior Researcher Lim Mi-ga (University Innovation Center, Seoul National University), Visiting Professor Kim Jeong-eun (Graduate School of Education, Chungnam National University), and Visiting Professor Kim Young-ah (Department of Intellectual Property Convergence, Chungnam National University). They organically woven theory and practice through their respective expertise and research experience.

"Capstone Design Education in the AI ​​Era" provides new ideas and expanded perspectives to instructors already practicing capstone design, while providing basic theory and implementation strategies to instructors just starting out.
Furthermore, it will serve as a practical guide for all educators considering innovation in university classes and support for student growth, a strong companion that leads student growth, and a guide that illuminates the future for students, providing a solid foundation for them to leap forward through capstone design.
