4. CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: 2023 PEER Collaborative National Workshop and Unconference

Save the Date: Wednesday, June 28 (dinner) and Thursday, June 29 (unconference day), 2023

Are you a faculty (new hire, pre-tenure, mid-career tenured faculty), postdoc, or staff member who is primarily evaluated on your engineering education work? The PEER Collaborative is a growing community of people in similar situations who mentor and support each other in their engineering education research positions.

Each year, academic members who are primarily evaluated on engineering education research have been meeting to talk through our needs together in our emerging research-based discipline of engineering education. There are too few senior faculty with expertise in engineering education research, and those colleagues are either too sought after or otherwise engaged to be able to spend much time with early career faculty. An annual workshop and unconference hosted immediately after ASEE has helped us to meet our own needs through peer and near-peer mentoring. The goals of the workshop are to 1. develop, support, and augment networks and working relationships and 2. support and be supported by peers near your same career level on different aspects of work and personal life.

Please join us for this year’s dinner and unconference!

Tentative PEER 2023 Schedule:

Wednesday, 6:30pm-8:00 pm: Dinner (at a nearby restaurant)

Thursday, 9:00am-5:00 pm: Unconference (with lunch break)

Come to as many or as few events as you are able. The location is TBD but near the Baltimore Conference Center.

The triple helix model of innovation was introduced in the 1990s, developed to theorize and understand interactions between academia, industry, and government. Since then, scholars have expanded it to include additional strands or sectors, including society or the public (quadruple helix) and the natural environment (quintuple helix). The conference theme, “Ethics in the Global Innovation Helix,” underscores questions about the role and place of ethics and related concerns (e.g., social responsibility, social justice, regulatory compliance, etc.) in interactions between these strands, especially in ongoing processes of technology innovation, diffusion, evolution, and maintenance.

6. CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: 2023 PEER Collaborative National Workshop and Unconference

Save the Date: Wednesday, June 28 (dinner) and Thursday, June 29 (unconference day), 2023

Are you a faculty (new hire, pre-tenure, mid-career tenured faculty), postdoc, or staff member who is primarily evaluated on your engineering education work? The PEER Collaborative is a growing community of people in similar situations who mentor and support each other in their engineering education research positions.

Each year, academic members who are primarily evaluated on engineering education research have been meeting to talk through our needs together in our emerging research-based discipline of engineering education. There are too few senior faculty with expertise in engineering education research, and those colleagues are either too sought after or otherwise engaged to be able to spend much time with early career faculty. An annual workshop and unconference hosted immediately after ASEE has helped us to meet our own needs through peer and near-peer mentoring. The goals of the workshop are to 1. develop, support, and augment networks and working relationships and 2. support and be supported by peers near your same career level on different aspects of work and personal life.

Please join us for this year’s dinner and unconference!

Tentative PEER 2023 Schedule:

Wednesday, 6:30pm-8:00 pm: Dinner (at a nearby restaurant)

Thursday, 9:00am-5:00 pm: Unconference (with lunch break)

Come to as many or as few events as you are able. The location is TBD but near the Baltimore Conference Center.

Please register at our website: https://sites.google.com/view/peer-collaborative. Please direct any questions to Corey Bowen at cbowen5@calstatela.edu.

Vision: Gather between fifty and seventy-five engineers, designers, and educators to discuss and share approaches for building bridges, creating connections, and removing obstacles to cross-disciplinary, inter-institutional, community, and industry partnerships in design education. We approach this goal believing that the best partnerships share perspectives, domain knowledge, values, and skill sets that compliment those of their other members in service to their mission. Within engineering design education, the opportunity to expose students to perspectives and paradigms that differ or conflict with their training is sometimes limited and often resisted. Cultivating methods to productively engage students beyond classrooms, departments, and universities that increase perspective heterodoxy and improve design approaches significantly broadens the student design experience beyond what may be a narrowly focused detailed design exercise. Helping students manage a broad set of perspectives and approaches is an important aspect of these partnerships.

Mission: We will identify the best practices, opportunities, and challenges broadly associated with cooperative partnerships and expanding design perspectives. We will discuss ways that educators, students, courses, and curricula can be positioned and developed to serve partners in engineering design education.  

Experience: Workshop sessions are initiated by brief summary or position statements from panelists followed by an open discussion. A wrap-up session will collect the most important outputs for improving engineering design education for dissemination to the community. Participants will receive a preliminary proceedings containing near-final manuscripts of presented papers.

Participants are invited to further refine their work and submit to peer review for publication in a Special Issue of the International Journal of Engineering Education containing the resulting proceedings of the Clive L. Dym Mudd Design Workshop XIII. In this case, authors will be requested to distinguish their workshop submission as scholarly research, position papers, or provocative observations so that they may be appropriately included in the IJEE Special Issue or elsewhere as appropriate.
