Excellence in Engineering Education

In the summer of 2010, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) will host the Excellence in Civil Engineering Education Teaching Workshop for civil engineering educators. ASCE has successfully presented this workshop each summer for the past eleven years. Faculty members across the country and around the world have benefited from this workshop.

The ExCEEd Teaching Workshop is a six-day practicum that provides engineering educators with an opportunity to improve their teaching abilities. The workshop focuses on basic skills and includes seminars addressing the following topics:

Principles of effective teaching and learning
Learning styles
Communication Skills
Learning objectives
Class organization and course organization
Development of interpersonal rapport with students
Teaching with technology
Classroom assessment techniques

These seminars are augmented by a series of demonstration classes - models of high-quality teaching, presented by ExCEEd faculty mentors. During the latter half of the course, participants apply what they have learned by preparing and teaching three actual classes in a small-group setting. This collaborative "learn by doing" format ensures that participants will make substantive improvements in their teaching skills by the end of the course.

Applicants who are accepted to an ASCE ExCEEd Teaching Workshop will be named "ExCEEd 2010 Teaching Fellows." The entire workshop registration fee is $425.*

*The workshop costs $2,500 per participant to conduct. ASCE is investing $2,075 in each participant as a fellowship.

All applications should be received by February 15, 2010.
