assessed the partner’spotential for bringing in research funding, and has opted to invest in their potential (andpresumably also identified a lab where the research can be carried out, and a research mentor).Other offers can emerge, depending on your partner’s goals. For example, an offer of Lecturer,or Clinical Assistant Professor are good long-term positions with job stability, and the rewardingexperiences of working with students. These are teaching-focused positions and will keep thepartner very busy, precluding their ability to pursue research objectives. Thus, if becomingtenure-track faculty members in your respective fields lies in your long-term dual-career goals, Irecommend negotiating for a partner position that actively supports their

a different institution) to understand the differences in the natureand number of comments associated with both types of proposals. This qualitative approach isintended to inform the direction of future research rather than to provide conclusive evidence oftrends in reviewer comments [4]. Methods Data Collection The workshops supported two-person teams, comprised of the PI (who, in accordance with S-STEM program requirements was a faculty member teaching in an S-STEM eligible discipline) and a team member with expertise in educational or related areas of research (referred to in this project as researcher participants). A total of 21 teams (42 participants) comprised the 2017 cohort. We

findings.For a number of years, several members of the American Society for Engineering Education(ASEE) thought that ASEE should engage in the recognition of educational qualifications if itwas to be a truly professional society. It was felt that ASEE had a professional responsibility toencourage all new engineering educators to gain an initial teaching qualification, not to beconfused with subsequent faculty development. There were no courses equivalent to IGIP [9] butthere were a few well established and recognized courses that were regularly offered (e.g. NETI)[10]. The opportunity to pursue this issue came when Professor Arnold Pears invited one of usto join him in presenting a one-day workshop on evidence-based teaching for persons with littleor

engineering postdoctoral appointments influence postdoctoral scholars’ view of the professoriate? 2. How does the view of the professoriate influence postdoctoral scholars’ career decision-making process?Literature ReviewA postdoctoral appointment is evolving into an important stepping stone to entering theengineering professoriate because it affords doctoral graduates with advanced preparation toassume the research, teaching, and service responsibilities of a tenure-track faculty member(Andalib et al., 2018; Main & Wang, 2019). Research has demonstrated that postdoctoralappointments are exceptionally advantageous for URMs and women, as their enhanced trainingleads them to be more competitive in the professoriate job

Teaching assistants play a vital role in the teaching mission of higher education institutionslike the College of Engineering at UW Madison. They are often the first point of contact a studentmay have with their instructional team and the most familiar role model for an undergraduatestudent questioning a career in the course subject field or academia in general. Not only are TAsvital to the student experience, but they are also potential future faculty, after earning an advanceddegree, it will be expected that they know how to teach. The mission of NEO is to prepare TAs for the charge of teaching, through giving them theskills and tools to teach and engage students, developing their identity as a teacher and skills toadvocate for themselves

learning facilitators (PLFs) as they first seek to support theircapacity to teach, and in doing so, also gain insight from them. Many faculty report seekingfeedback from their PLFs as they make instructional decisions. Taking this further, some haveargued that students should be co-designers. However, engaging teams of students and faculty inthis way presents a clear power imbalance [24], but one that researchers have asserted can beovercome by positioning students as collaborators and discussing points of view and insightsgained from these different vantage points. Others have argued that because of the powerdynamics, an intermediary such as an expert in teaching and learning is needed to formsuccessful student-faculty design partnerships [25

STEMeducation enterprise and broaden the pool of researchers that can conduct fundamental researchinto STEM learning and learning environments. This is motivated in part by the recognition thatimproved STEM education will benefit from qualitative and quantitative research [1], and for theneed to evaluate the effectiveness of various initiatives that are being explored [2]. Recent NSFawards have focused mostly on graduate students seeking to become STEM researchersincluding studies that established: 1) an Institute in Critical Quantitative, Computational, andMixed Methods Training for Underrepresented Scholars [3], 2) a Meta-Analysis ResearchInstitute (MMARI) to improve the quality of meta-analyses conducted in STEM education byproviding training to
