ENGINEERING OUTREACH: EXAMPLES, EVALUATION AND EVIDENCING
Research output: Contributions to collected editions/works › Article in conference proceedings › Research › peer-review
Authors
Outreach initiatives play a pivotal role in attracting the next generation of engineers.Both academic engineering education institutions and employers engage in various outreach activities to illustrate what engineering entails and to demonstrate the impact of engineering to young children and adolescents.Despite substantial investment of time and resources, there is a lack of comprehensive documentation on the design, content, implementation, and impact of these interventions.This gap hinders the sharing of good practices and raises concerns about the efficiency of these efforts.This workshop aims to showcase diverse outreach activities and gather best practices on outreach activities and evaluation.
