Engineering Concepts For The High School Classroom Replication Project: Partners For Engineering Problem Solving

小行星9555753 该提案旨在在其他6-8所工程学院实施达特茅斯学院塞耶工程学院开发的非常成功的解决问题的教师培训模式。 我们建议在1997年夏天建立一个研究所，向工程系和其他人介绍工程问题解决的概念及其在高中教学中的应用。 每个团队将包括1-2名工程教师，1-2名参加过过去研讨会的高中教师;其他团队成员可能包括在工业界工作的工程师和/或工程学院的管理人员，他们将参与复制程序的设计和/或操作。 每个团队的所有tea成员都将来自同一个地理区域，他们将作为团队招募，明确了解他们对复制研究所感兴趣并致力于复制研究所（根据各个地点的位置和考虑因素进行适当调整）。 该研究所不仅将提供经验学习的方法，但将提供一个密集的重点放在制定计划的复制，使参与者将离开一个大纲的期望团队作为一个整体，为个别团队成员，和规格的技术援助，他们希望从塞耶学校，因为他们继续发展他们的复制。 研究所成立后，将向进行复制的机构提供技术援助，并将跟踪其进展情况，根据需要进行干预，以协助进行复制。 我们将建立电子通信（邮件列表、网页），使参与者能够随时分享他们的进展、索取信息、提出问题等。

9555753 Muller The proposal seeks to implement, at 6-8 other engineering schools, the highly successful problem-solving teaches training model developed at Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College. We propose an institute for the summer of 1997 to introduce engineering faculty and others to the Engineering Problem-Solving concepts and their applications to high school instruction. Each team will include 1-2 engineering faculty members, 1-2 high school teachers who have participated in past workshops; other team members might include engineers working in industry and/or administrators from the engineering school who would be involved in designing and/or operations of the replication programs. All tea members of each team will come from the same geographic area, and they will be recruited as team, with the explicit understanding that they are interested in and committed to replicating the institute (with appropriate adaptations for individual site locations and considerations). The institute will not only offer experiential learning of the methods, but will provide an intensive focus on developing plans for replication, so that participants will leave with an outline of expectations for the team as a whole, for individual team members, and specifications for the technical assistance they would like from Thayer School as they proceed to develop their replications. Following the institute technical assistance will be available to those undertaking the replications, and their progress will be tracked, with interventions as needed to assist the development of the replications. We will establish electronic communications (listservs, web pages) to allow participants readily to share their progress, request information, ask questions, etc. ***
