Pedagogical Practices of Teaching Engineering Online

Catalog description

An immersive study of pedagogical practices to teaching technology, and other core Engineering fields in an online format. The course explores and directly applies key concepts in learning objective creation, course organization, student engagement practices, rubric creation, facilitation of cooperative and collaborative work environments, teaching technologies and interactive media for learning, and direct student engagement. While involved with research and other direct challenge-based learning, the student will also be directly involved in the crafting and deployment of course materials, assessments, and student engagement activities for a currently active undergraduate course in the Information Technology Program. This affords the student both academic and practical, hands-on experience in both pedagogy development and learning materials. Students will be required to research topics, develop in-tandem learning materials, and engage with undergraduates seeking assistance with course content. This faculty led experience provides the student with the greatest immersive experience possible, while learning key concepts in higher education of engineering fields. Graded on A-F basis only.
