项目摘要

The preparation of a future engineering workforce depends critically on our ability to provide excellence in training and through our efforts to train a diverse range of stakeholders for the engineering profession. Increasingly within the United States institutions are creating programs, courses, and centers to support the preparation of the future engineer. This institutional and education infrastructure depends on a better and deeper understanding of how engineering education works best in order to support their efforts and initiatives. This project will contribute to this mission by increasing and improving the capacity of engineering educators to undertake research on engineering education. Through this series of workshops newcomers to the field will be able to learn first-hand from scholar-experts in the field. The online nature of the workshops will ensure that a large number of participants are able to undergo the sessions. Furthermore, the resources created as part of this project will be available for future training purposes. Overall, this work is crucial for the growing field of engineering education and the ability of future engineering educators to learn from a diverse set of scholar-experts will broaden the kinds of research that are done as well as the outcomes of the research. This project aligns with NSF’s investment in the Research in Formation of Engineers (RFE) program by creating better engineering education researchers that can support the training of future engineers and who can undertake better research for us to know how to create a more inclusive engineering workforce for the future. Building capacity for engineering education research (EER) is a core goal of NSF and organizations such as the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) and the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). Over the past decade the community has made significant gains towards achieving this objective as evidenced by increasing number of departments and centers directed towards engineering education across institutions. Propagation of EER practices has largely been through face-to-face interactions, including doctoral programs, working in research laboratories, and workshops and tutorials at professional development meetings. These in person engagements and events are prohibitive for many who would benefit from developing a better understanding of how research is conducted. They also limit new researchers in exposure to a broader diversity of views and research practices. This proposed series of digital workshops are designed as a “swift apprenticeship” experiences to increase the formation of EER practitioners by creating exemplars of engineering education research practices that take the learner through the entire lifecycle of a project and provide an avenue for learning by example, scaffolded by experts. Experts will focus on one of their exemplary published research papers and deconstruct/reconstruct how that research was done and the paper produced including matters of theory, methods, and review. The reconstruction will take place as a conversation with the PI/s which will be captured on video and audio and drafts of papers and other relevant artifacts will be collected and shared. It will also invite questions from a set of novice participants and commentary from other experts to provide another viewpoint and additional context on research practices. This project will benefit engineering education graduate students, engineering graduate students and faculty in other disciplines interested in engineering education research, and postdoctoral scholars. This work will contribute to research on engineering education, especially the use of professional vision and scaffolding for novices, and on transfer learning for research practices.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

培养一支未来的工程队伍，关键取决于我们提供卓越培训的能力，以及我们努力为工程专业培训各种利益相关者的能力。在美国，越来越多的机构正在创建项目、课程和中心，以支持未来工程师的准备。这一机构和教育基础设施取决于对工程教育如何发挥最佳作用的更好和更深入的理解，以便支持他们的努力和倡议。该项目将通过增加和改进工程教育工作者从事工程教育研究的能力，为这一使命作出贡献。通过这一系列讲习班，该领域的新手将能够从该领域的学者和专家那里获得第一手知识。讲习班的在线性质将确保大量参与者能够参加会议。此外，作为该项目一部分创建的资源将用于今后的培训目的。总体而言，这项工作对不断增长的工程教育领域至关重要，未来工程教育者向不同学者-专家学习的能力将扩大所做研究的种类以及研究的结果。该项目与NSF对工程师研究信息计划(RFE)的投资相一致，通过培养更好的工程教育研究人员来支持未来工程师的培训，并让他们能够进行更好的研究，让我们知道如何为未来创造一支更具包容性的工程劳动力队伍。建设工程教育研究能力(EER)是NSF以及美国工程教育学会(ASEE)和美国国家科学院、工程和医学研究院(NASEM)等组织的核心目标。在过去十年中，社区在实现这一目标方面取得了重大进展，各机构的工程教育部门和中心的数量不断增加就是明证。EER实践的传播主要是通过面对面的互动，包括博士项目、在研究实验室工作，以及在专业发展会议上的研讨会和教程。对于许多人来说，这些面对面的接触和活动是令人望而却步的，他们将受益于更好地理解研究是如何进行的。它们还限制了新的研究人员接触到更广泛的观点和研究实践的多样性。这一拟议的一系列数字讲习班旨在提供一种“快速学徒”体验，通过创建工程教育研究做法的范例，引导学习者完成项目的整个生命周期，并提供一种在专家的支撑下进行榜样学习的途径，从而增加能效教育从业者的形成。专家们将把重点放在他们发表的一篇示范性研究论文上，并解构/重建该研究是如何进行的，以及论文是如何产生的，包括理论、方法和综述。重建将作为与少年派/S的对话进行，这将被视频和音频捕捉，论文和其他相关文物的草稿将被收集和分享。它还将邀请一组新手参与者提出问题和其他专家的评论，以提供关于研究实践的另一种观点和更多背景。本项目将惠及工程教育学研究生、对工程教育研究感兴趣的其他学科的工程研究生和教职员工以及博士后学者。这项工作将有助于工程教育的研究，特别是对新手的专业愿景和脚手架的使用，以及用于研究实践的转移学习。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
