  1.     CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS: Survey on Digitalization of the Engineering Curriculum

The increasingly digital world is increasingly being reflected in the way in which we practice and teach engineering.  Emergency remote instruction during the COVID pandemic has shown that indeed most of an engineering degree can be taught online; however, the majority of efforts in this space were digital versions of face-to-face teaching.  As we emerge from the pandemic it is timely to consider which parts of the curriculum matter most for student learning, and whether they should return to face to face delivery, or move towards digital native forms of learning. 

The UNESCO Centre for PBL at Aalborg University is running a survey to evaluate faculty perceptions of how important a range of activities are for student learning, as well as how suitable those experiences are for digitalization. The items on this survey are not structured by the traditional timetabled experiences for student engineers (e.g. lectures / tutorials / laboratories); instead these experiences have been unpacked into the affordances that they provide.  

The survey is available online at tiny.cc/digitalsurvey

Any questions regarding the survey can be directed to Euan Lindsay, Professor of PBL and Digitalisation in Engineering Education: edl@plan.aau.dk

  1.     CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS: Survey on Thriving among undergraduate engineering students 

Dr. Julianna Gesun would appreciate help sharing the following survey with undergraduate engineering students (ideally in their second year and higher class standing)!

How: This survey can be shared on listservs with undergraduate engineering students who might self-identify as thriving. Even better, engineering instructors can dedicate class time or extra credit for survey completion is another incentive to support this research and get more students thinking about their thriving.

Why: Including universities in this phase of survey development means that the final survey with evidence of validity and reliability will be applicable to the university’s students. Furthermore, this survey is a good opportunity for engineering students to reflect on their own thriving.

What: Here is the IRB-approved recruitment message:

—————————-

Dear engineering student,

Interested in reflecting on your own thriving? As part of a research project, thriving engineering students are invited to take a survey of engineering thriving. This project seeks to develop a way of accurately measuring thriving that can inform universities on ways to better support student thriving.

By participating in this research project, you will be entered into a drawing for one of twenty $40 Amazon gift card AND receive a personalized report of your thriving profile.

You can access the survey here: https://tinyurl.com/ThriveSurvey1

If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Julianna Gesun at Julianna.Gesun@unh.edu.

Specifically, the Postdoctoral Researcher will:

  • Assist in coordinating the work of the TEE Scholars and graduate research assistants and supervise the work of graduate research assistants.
  • Assist in the creation and validation of a pedagogical framework that supports the integration of equity-centered engineering learning objectives and content into engineering program curricula.
  • Develop strategies to achieve this integration and rubrics to assess the overall framework, including the implementation of DEIJ learning objective, learning activities, and student learning.
  • Conduct a literature review on DEIJ instructional approaches and learning objectives and their integration into disciplinary curricula, particularly in STEM fields.
  • Interview faculty and/or administrators at peer institutions on their DEIJ efforts in science and engineering to inform the development of the pedagogical framework.
  • Analyze data collected for key themes and pedagogical and curricular approaches appropriate for developing equity-centered engineering curricula, and also identify any gaps in understanding.
  • Interface with CRLT-ENGIN to share information relevant to the design and facilitation of CRLT-ENGIN’s Teaching Circles and benefit from the professional staff members’ experience and knowledge.

Key responsibilities will involve developing meeting agendas for project team and research team

meetings; developing survey instruments; identifying existing validated scales; and drafting, piloting, and refining interview and classroom observation guides to test the framework. The Postdoctoral Researcher will also work with the lead faculty member and TEE Scholars to develop presentations and/or reports to the project’s external advisory board and evaluators, and to coordinate and engage in project dissemination efforts.

Candidates should have:

  • A PhD in engineering education, higher education, STEM education, or a related field.
  • A commitment to and understanding of social justice and inclusion as well as equity-centered and/or antiracist pedagogies.
