"So, what did you end up doing?" A COVID-19 Teaching Salon Zoom Discussion hosted by the faculty of the School of Engineering Education will take place on Friday, June 12, 2020, 1:00-2:00 PM EDT. Instructors talk with instructors about lessons learned (good, bad, and ugly) putting their courses online in Spring 2020, and share thoughts about how to do it better in the future.

In March, instructors and students alike were quickly adapting to online instruction and learning. We reached out at the end of the semester to our First-Year Engineering students to share their stories of challenges, milestones, and wins. We quickly learned that our students took full advantage of the many tools and resources provided to them. With the support of our instructional teams and their own support systems, students kept their Boilermaker spirit no matter where they were and what obstacles stood before them.

As we wrap up the 2019-20 academic school year, we take a look a back to celebrate the many milestones reached in our graduate program. Congratulations to all of our students and graduates!

Part 2: Dr. Julie Martin's Research to Promote Diversity and Inclusion in Engineering

Emma Schafer, a senior in our Multidisciplinary Engineering Degree Program with a concentration in General Engineering, found her balance at Purdue through her love of twirling.

Madeline Moisio, a senior in our Multidisciplinary Engineering Degree Program with a concentration in Humanitarian Engineering, recently answered a series of questions for us, as we were interested in her take on the COVID-19 virus and the many challenges it has poised for countless agencies at all levels.

Now that instructors have had a little time to transition to teaching online in response to the novel coronavirus pandemic, it’s time to identify ways to increase student engagement online. Faculty, staff, and graduate students in Purdue University’s School of Engineering Education have put their heads together to offer 10 ideas for actively engaging students in online learning settings. These tips reflect our experience teaching and learning both face-to-face and online.

The 2020 School of Engineering Education Awards for Excellence in Undergraduate and Graduate Teaching were presented virtually during our Spring Industrial Advisory Council meeting via WebEx. This year's recipients are Dr. Muhsin Menekse, Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching and Dr. Kerrie Douglas, Award for Excellence in Graduate Teaching.

Part 1: Grant Proposal Advice from Dr. Julie Martin, The Ohio State University and Former NSF Program Officer

As an engineer, a U.S. Army officer, a medical doctor, a judge and a skydiver, Sue Hudson Abreu has consistently proven that she embraces all challenges and is unafraid to color outside the lines.

It is our great pleasure to present this year's recipients of the Engineering Education Outstanding Alumni Award, Judith Cleland, Pedro Pires de Miranda, Jennifer Kerr and Arnold Young, all graduates of the former Division of Interdisciplinary Engineering (now part of the School of Engineering Education). At our event held last week, we also celebrated our top junior and senior students for their academic achievements and service.
