Education development within engineering

Abstract

Academic engineers who are interested in teaching often find themselves, either formally or informally, taking on the role of ‘education developer’ for their department or faculty. The trend to move towards educational development within disciplines is fairly recent and brings with it a range of interesting opportunities and challenges. Here we will look at the various issues that might occur and provide a way of looking at these that enable faculty in this position to select the most appropriate alternative for their own context.

Keywords:

• Education development
• Discipline based
• Faculty development
