NETI teaching workshops

San Diego, January 3-8, 2025

www.neti-workshop.org 

NETI-1, Course Design and Student Engagement, will be offered January 6-8, 2025, at the University of San Diego. Drs. Susan Lord, Matt Ohland, and Michael Prince will lead the long-standing foundational NETI-1 workshop, which has been offered since 1991. Previous NETI programs have reached over 3000 participants from more than 365 different schools. Our past participant evaluations have been overwhelmingly positive. The workshop features material for relatively new faculty members and other material designed to equip experienced faculty members to become teaching leaders and mentors on their campuses. Participants will include up to 60 faculty members from all branches of engineering, engineering technology, and other STEM areas. The registration fee is $1275 per participant, which covers organization and presentation costs, electronic participant notebooks, lunches, and breaks. Participants also receive a copy of Felder & Brent’s Teaching and Learning STEM: A Practical Guide and the option of touring the Shiley-Marcos School of Engineering. There is a discount for bringing larger teams from the same institution. Travel expenses, including breakfasts and dinners, are not included. Further details about the workshop program and a link to register can be found at https://www.neti-workshop.org/.

NETI-2, Student Teams & Advanced Student Engagement will be offered January 3-4, 2025 at the University of San Diego. Drs. Susan Lord, Matt Ohland, and Michael Prince will lead this advanced companion workshop to NETI-1. NETI-2 is designed for engineering and other STEM instructors who are already familiar with the topics of NETI-1 and are looking for more advanced active learning strategies to engage students at a higher level. The first half of the workshop focuses on cooperative learning and teamwork including how to form, manage, and assess student teams. The second half of the workshop prepares faculty to adopt inquiry-based instruction and problem-based learning. Participants are introduced to a range of inquiry-based teaching methods and given the time and support needed to tailor this approach to their own classes. The registration fee is $1100 per participant, which covers organization and presentation costs, electronic participant notebooks, lunches, and breaks. There is a discount for bringing larger teams from the same institution. Travel expenses, including breakfasts and dinners, are not included.
