Page 24.279.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2014 Collaboration within Engineering Education Research’s Community of PracticeAbstractEngineering education research (EER) is a relatively young field of inquiry, established with theintent to improve the academic experiences of young and emerging engineers. While manyresearchers’ perceptions of how to improve engineering education stem from traditionalclassroom experiences, a select group of researchers belong to EER-oriented departments, labs,and research centers. These on-campus resources create a formal bridge between EER-expertnetworks and offer researchers an opportunity to collaborate with other like-minded

(For example, we saw articles refer to clusters of core classes or clustering studentstogether for collaborative learning; one article also reported the follow-up study to using clusteranalysis and was not included.) Table 1 includes characteristics of these studies using a taxonomyfor reporting cluster analysis informed by Clatworthy, Buick, Hankins, Weinman, and Horne.7Perhaps due to the relatively emergent status of engineering education research as a discipline,9few examples of clustering were identified. The scarce use of cluster analysis suggests the utilityof our methodological introduction and example here.Table 1

research needs withinengineering education. We provide a comprehensive definition of complex systems educational research(Hilpert & Marchand, under review; Jacobson et al., 2016) and an overview of methods specific to theapproach (Hollenstein, 2013; Koopsman & Stavalomsis, 2016; Strogatz, 1994). After this, we delineate aresearch-based framework that can be used to develop and conduct complex systems research andevaluation. We identify two areas within the field of engineering education where complex systemsresearch can be useful: 1) educational research focused on student interaction and cognition and 2)assessment and evaluation of collaboratives such as grant funded projects and communication/publication networks.

perspective on theneed for interdisciplinary expertise in engineering education scholarship6 7 8 or by analyzing thecitations in publication records to examine the level of dissemination of engineering educationinnovations9 10. Generally, interdisciplinarity has been explored using a variety of researchattributes, such as research formulation process, collaborations, research outcomes, and researchimpact. However, the US National Academies Committee on Science, Engineering & PublicPolicy (COSEPUP), Committee on Facilitating Interdisciplinary Research report, FacilitatingInterdisciplinary Research11 (http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=11153) suggests thatinterdisciplinarity, as an epistemic category, be determined based on the content of
the challenges and lessons we, theSTEM professionals on the team, learned in our struggle to build a mutually respectful, trust-based, and symbiotic relationship with our social science partners. In the spirit of an authenticpartnership, our anthropology colleague also faced challenges and grew intellectually through theexperiences of this collaboration, but that story is for a different audience. Hopefully our storywill inspire other engineering education researchers to not just use social science techniques andtheories when expedient to do so, but to open their minds to new ways of thinking, investigating,and reporting.The Research Institute for STEM Education (RISE) [22] grew from conversations in fall 2001around ideas for a proposal to

But how does a researcher, trained in engineering, begin to carryout education research, relying as it does upon non-engineering methodologies “borrowed” fromthe learning sciences? In response to these concerns, there have recently been initiatives indeveloping educational research expertise among engineering educators. In this paper wedescribe a multi-institutional, multi-national model (which we call Bootstrapping) designed
