July 8 - 9
This workshop will develop participants’ ability to adopt inquiry-based learning strategies. These strategies (e.g. problem-based and project-based learning) provide an engaging way to teach courses that more closely mimics how science and engineering are done in practice. Research shows that these approaches enhance student motivation, improve understanding of important concepts and develop students’ problem-solving and life-long learning skills. NETI-2A participants do not need to have attended NETI-1 but should already be familiar with active learning.
August 11 - 12
Boost your PreK-12 STEM power through virtual Professional Development workshops this summer! TeachEngineering and the University of Colorado Boulder’s engineering and education schools have teamed up to offer two online workshops this summer, each designed to help classroom teachers integrate engineering into their STEM curricula. Both workshops have earned the American Society for Engineering Education‘s first Engineering Teacher Professional Development endorsement. Meet new colleagues and hone your design thinking – and doing – skills in these two-day, learn-by-doing workshops that support you in putting the “E” in STEM back in your classroom. Together, we’ve got this!
