Words: National Effective Teaching Institute, NETI, Faculty DevelopmentABSTRACT The National Effective Teaching Institute (NETI) is a three-day teaching workshop thathas been given annually since 1991 in conjunction with the Annual ASEE Conference. In theearly spring of 2008, a web-based survey sent to 607 workshop alumni asked about the effects ofthe NETI on their teaching practices, their students’ and their own ratings of their teaching, theirinvolvement in educational research and instructional development, and their attitudes regardingvarious aspects of teaching and learning. Valid responses were received from 319 of the surveyrecipients. This paper briefly reviews the history of the NETI, summarizes and analyzes thesurvey responses

Engineering Education, 2020Research data practices of aerospace engineering faculty: A qualitative studyIntroductionThe storage, curation, and accessibility of digital research data is becoming more important forscientific and engineering researchers at academic institutions. While much has been written onthe needs of research data management of scientists in the academic literature, less common arestudies that look in finer detail at specific engineering disciplines. In this paper, the authors usequalitative data from interviews with research faculty of a specific engineering discipline,aerospace engineering (AE), to identify common perceptions, practices, and strategies withrespect to their research data. This report also discusses how these
