在本文中,我们描述了普渡大学的EPICS项目,该项目始于1995年,已经发展成为一个多学科的学术项目,每年有来自工程内外近70个学科的800多名学生参与。EPICS已传播到其他校园,并已被采纳为K12通过社区参与介绍工程的方法。本文描述了当前的项目,并分享了最佳实践和经验教训,为寻求发展服务学习,通过服务学习或以社区为基础的工程的教师和管理人员提供了见解。与学生学习和社区影响相关的项目数据是共享的。文章还讨论了成功传播的特点。
In this paper we describe the EPICS Program at Purdue that was started in 1995 and has evolved into a multidisciplinary academic program engaging more than 800 students per year from nearly 70 disciplines across and outside of engineering. EPICS has been disseminated to other campuses and has been adopted as a K12 approach for introducing engineering through community engagement. This paper describes the current program and shares best practices and lessons learned as the program developed to provide insight for faculty and administrators seeking to develop service-learning, learning through service-learning, or community-based engineering. Data from the program related to student learning and community impact is shared. A discussion of the characteristics to make dissemination successful is also discussed.
