Civil and Mechanical Systems Workshop on Integration of Research

这个奖项是为了支持在1998年秋季举办的一个研讨会，该研讨会旨在分享、传播和回顾工程教育的创新和与研究的结合。邀请参加者将是来自土木和机械系统部及相关学科的约100名职业获奖者。研讨会的目标是(1)促进教育数量职业研究者的技术和知识交流；(2)将创新的教学方法放在首位，特别是在工程教育中结合研究的应用，提供一个论坛，传播由终身成就奖得主实施的教育计划；(3)促进并记录有关如何通过学术机构、联邦资助机构和行业促进工程教育与研究的成功整合的讨论。研讨会的组织者包括五位来自CMS部门CAREER竞赛的获奖者。他们将计划研讨会议程，邀请演讲者，开发互动环节，并准备研讨会的会议记录。会议记录将(1)总结工作会议讨论的建议；(2)提供研讨会成果评估和建议说明；(3)包括每位参与者的两页摘要，描述他们的研究、教育活动和创新的关键方面。最后，该文件将包括对工程教育实践状况的评估，以及职业生涯计划作为变革催化剂的作用。研讨会参与者和其他工程教育工作者将通过网络讨论小组继续就研究与教育的整合进行对话。

This award is to support a workshop in the autumn of 1998 which is designed as a forum to share, disseminate and review engineering education innovations and integration with research. Invited participants will be approximately 100 career awardees from the Civil and Mechanical Systems Division and related disciplines. The workshop goals are to (1) foster technical and intellectual exchange about education amount career investigators; (2) bring innovative teaching methods to the fore, especially as applied to the incorporation of research in engineering education by providing a forum for dissemination of education plans implement by CAREER awardees; and, (3) foster and document discussions of how the successful integration of engineering education and research can be facilitated by academic institutions, federal funding agencies, and industry. The workshop organizers include five awardees from CAREER competitions in the CMS Division. They will plan the workshop agenda, invite speakers and develop interactive sessions, and prepare proceedings from the workshop. The proceedings will (1) summarize the recommendations from working session discussions; (2) provide a workshop outcomes assessment and recommendations statement; and (3) include a two-page abstract from each participant that described key aspects of their research and education activities and innovations. Finally, the document will include an assessment of the state-of-the-practice in engineering education, and the role of the CAREER program as a catalyst of change. The workshop participants and other engineering educators will continue their dialogue on integration of research and education though a web-based discussion group.
