Dean of the School of Engineering and Computer Science, Dr. Sara Atwood and Professor of Engineering and Physics, Dr. Kurt DeGoede co-facilitated a four-day workshop with Ohio Northern University Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering Josh Gargac and University of Detroit, Mercy Professor of Mechanical Engineering Shuvra Das in Albuquerque, N.M. from July 29 through Aug. 1.\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"Their workshop, \u201cLearning From Failure with Mastery-Based Learning,\u201d sold out quickly and was filled to capacity with more than 50 faculty from across the country on the waitlist. The workshop was part of the KEEN Faculty Development Series and the topic has been presented<\/a> by Atwood and DeGoede at previous KEEN events.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Engineering Unleashed Faculty Development program, powered by KEEN (The Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network) provides an outstanding opportunity for our faculty and staff to level-up their courses, student mentoring, and program management,\u201d DeGoede said.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Additionally, Professor of Engineering and Engineering Program Director, Dr. Brenda Read-Daily attended a workshop focused on engaging with industry advisory boards. Assistant Professor Mark Brinton participated in the infusing undergraduate research with an entrepreneurial mindset workshop, while Director of the Bowers Writers House, Jesse Waters engaged in a workshop centered on unleashing academic change.<\/p>\n

The workshops are designed to be a rewarding, collaborative learning experience to expand the use of the engineering entrepreneurial mindset. Workshop attendance and travel are funded by the Kern Family Foundation through Etown\u2019s status as a KEEN institutional partner.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
