Lab experiences spanmultiple engineering disciplines (e.g. electrical engineering, computer engineering, civilengineering, biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, andintegrated systems engineering). Lab write-ups and GTA lectures frame the lab activity in thecontext of the engineering

The year-long professional development program providedinformation to faculty about educational research on teaching practices, ways to implementactive learning strategies, and created a supportive environment for faculty to discuss theirteaching practices in the classroom. In this paper, we detail the program structure/content,evaluation methodology, and present a summary of data analysis. We conclude by discussingkey takeaways and lessons learned from the program.
