Engineering - Other (59)The project team is organizing a workshop to bring educators and related professionals together to begin developing standard models of technological literacy courses for undergraduates. The project is defining several course models for further development and connecting individuals with interest in each model so that they can continue to work on the model after the workshop. Ultimately, the investigators plan that these subgroups will create course materials for both students and instructors to allow easy adoption and widespread use. The primary outcomes of the workshop are preliminary materials describing several models for technological literacy courses, a community focused on developing each of these models, and a dissemination effort to promote the models to a broader audience. The broader impacts include the focus on developing courses that promote a technologically literate citizenry and help recruit students of diverse interests and backgrounds into science, mathematics, and engineering careers.

工程-其他(59)项目团队正在组织一次研讨会，将教育工作者和相关专业人员聚集在一起，开始为本科生开发技术素养课程的标准模型。该项目正在确定几个课程模式以供进一步开发，并将对每个模式感兴趣的个人联系起来，以便他们可以在讲习班结束后继续研究该模式。最终，调查人员计划这些小组将为学生和教师创建课程材料，以便易于采用和广泛使用。讲习班的主要成果是介绍了技术扫盲课程的几种模式的初步材料、侧重于开发每一种模式的社区以及向更广泛的受众推广这些模式的传播努力。更广泛的影响包括重点开发课程，促进具有技术素养的公民，并帮助招收不同兴趣和背景的学生进入科学、数学和工程职业。
