Our sessions were attended voluntarily by about 10 experienced (mostwith 5+ years of teaching) tenure-line and instructional faculty, all of whom were members ofour usual audience of faculty who are interested in evidence-based teaching.First session on faculty ethics: an exploration of ethical guidelines in higher educationIn the first session we discussed briefly what it means to be a member of a profession, rather thanbeing a practitioner of a craft or just having a job. A profession is a group that is “organized toearn a living by openly serving a certain moral ideal in a morally permissible way beyond whatlaw, market, and morality would otherwise require.”[1] Some of the elements of a profession arethat it

(Practice Paper Category)AbstractTo meet the challenges and opportunities of educating new generations of engineering leadersfor jobs of the future, Engineering Management programs must evolve with a strategy thatintegrates academic education with workplace application. That strategy must address thechanging demographics of technical industries and their workforces. We can meet that challengeby unifying technical leadership fundamentals into an applied experience, internalizingengineering management coursework with a real-life technical leadership scenario that isapplicable across industries.Education research[1] shows that working professional students learn best through case studies,active learning, and project-based activity.

IntroductionWith the advent of new methods and approaches in virtual education, automated systems, andonline learning, there is a need for general-purpose approaches to help automate studenteducation. These new approaches can serve not to replace traditional education, but to augment itthrough automated student assistance, easier classroom operation for instructors, and bettersupport for under-performing students [1].

Many peer tutors have office hours where studentscan informally drop by and get help, or students are asked to formally join a peer tutoringprogram [1]. These programs are voluntary and may be missing the students who need it themost.ICPT may improve access to peer tutors for all students. ICPT involves peer tutors attendingclass sessions where students solve in-class assignments. Because it is during class, all studentsinteract with the peer tutors.

Clicking on a term in either network highlights thatterm along with its links and term associates in both networks. Dragging any term in eithernetwork moves the same term in the other network.
