Comparison of Instructor and Professionals Assessment in Project-Based Learning

In the Industry 4.0 era, engineering education should address the four C's of 21
^st
century skills (4C's). These skills consist of critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. This study tries to address these skills through project-based learning. To achieve high-quality project-based learning, this study has implemented eight essential elements. These elements consist of pedagogy, accountability, integration, voice, assessment, exhibition, training, and tech. The instructor has difficulty in assessing the project-based learning. Thus, this study tries to address the issue using several assessors. Furthermore, this study tries to compare the instructor and professionals in assessing projects. Not all the project's criteria have p-value > α =3D 0.05. The majority of the pairs are almost negligible with r values <; 0.2. There are differences in the academic and industry point of view in the course project. The assessment results from the professionals are influenced by their experience.
