Call for Papers – SPEE Track Session
Talking about Teaching 2013 (TaT'13)
About
The 2nd edition of Track Session Talking about Teaching 2013 (TaT’13) within the Annual Conference IGIP2013 aims to promote the discussion on Engineering Education by providing an opportunity for debating and sharing approaches, developments and experiences, in line with the mission of both the Portuguese Society for Engineering Education (SPEE) and the International Society for Engineering Education (IGIP).
Talking about Teaching is the name of a thought-provoking column of Susan Zvacek, USA, in the SPEE Newsletter and the organizers intend to give continuity to its reflections and potentiate them within this Track Session @ IGIP2013, fostering profitable discussion.
The proposed topics are concerned not only with resources in engineering education (EE) and with the constant demand on the use of technology, but also with the effectiveness of knowledge in order to guaranty simultaneously the spirit of engineering leadership in society and the lifelong learning capability. They also include the perspective of EE oriented for STEM, as well as the commitment in sharing resources with those affected by the digital divide.
