Course Innovations as a Basis for Engineering Graduate Student Professional Development in Teaching

工程其他(59)这个项目正在为研究生助教创建一门以教学为重点的研究生水平工程教育课程，这些助教对本科生的学习负有重要责任。它还在实施形成性评估工具，使研究生助教有机会反思他们的教学以及他们在工程实验室中实施有效的学习科学原则。利用“人如何学习”(HPL)框架，专业督导员正在指导课程材料和课堂环境的发展，为创新的一年级工程实验室课程的研究生助教提供机会，深入反思他们的教学实践。通过为研究生助教创造专业发展的机会，他们专注于理解科学和学习与教学的原则，他们正在工程实验室获得HPL环境，促进所有学生更高水平的学习和保持。

Engineering Other (59)This project is creating a pedagogically-focused graduate level engineering education course for graduate teaching assistant who have significant responsibilities for undergraduate student learning. It is also implementing formative assessment tools that give the graduate teaching assistants opportunities to reflect upon their teaching and their implementation of effective learning science principles within engineering laboratories. Using the "How People Learn" (HPL) framework, the PIs are guiding the development of course materials and a classroom environment, providing opportunities for graduate teaching assistants within an innovative first-year engineering laboratory course to reflect deeply upon their pedagogical practices. By creating professional development opportunities for graduate teaching assistants that focus on understanding the science and principles of learning and teaching, they are attaining HPL environments in engineering laboratories that promote all students' higher level learning and retention.
