| 12:00pm - 1:30pm | WS174: Building Conceptual Models and Engineering Design Thinking in K-12 Students Location: Room E (9 - Numancia) Humanities Faculty Session Chair: Dr. Nancy Ruzycki, University of Florida, United States of America Session Chair: Dr. Krista Marie Dulany, University of Florida, United States of America Session Chair: Dr. Lorelie Dela Fuente Imperial, University of Florida, United States of America Session Chair: Dr. Blanca Quintana, UNED, Spain This 90 minutes workshop will engage participants in understanding how engineering design practices can be brought into core content classes to support conceptual model development in students as part of the model development cycle. Participants will have a chance to map this learning using frameworks developed by the facilitators.
The Engaged Quality Instruction Through Professional Development (EQuIPD) is a teacher professional development project funded by the US Department of Education through the Supporting Effective Educator Development (SEED) program. EQuIPD experts will lead this workshop with the aim of supporting teachers as they develop the capacity and build competency in creating and using conceptual models of the core content that they teach. This workshop will engage participants in understanding how engineering design practices can be brought into core content classes to support conceptual model development in students as part of the model development cycle. Participants will have a chance to map this learning using frameworks developed by the facilitators through collaborative, hands-on activities during each stage of the session. They will work through the workshop activities either in a face-to-face or virtual format. After the eliciting and developing stages, participants will go into small groups or breakout rooms to deploy the workshop findings into their own work. Participants will come back together at the end to receive feedback to refine their lessons or outcomes. |

| 12:00pm - 1:30pm | WS129: Reflecting on your Role Modeling with a Scientific Approach Location: Room E (9 - Numancia) Humanities Faculty Session Chair: Virginia Grande, Uppsala University, Sweden Session Chair: Dr. Anne-Kathrin Peters, Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden Session Chair: Prof. Mats Daniels, Uppsala University, Sweden Session Chair: Dr. Elena Ruiz Larrocha, UNED, Spain Having a role model can be beneficial, e.g. students may have higher self-esteem, motivation and academic achievement. We are all potential role models in different contexts. What is it that we model? If we consider whether there is intention and awareness of our own role modeling, how does it affect our reflection on what others may copy from us? In this workshop, participants from all backgrounds, including educators in any career stage (teachers, course coordinators, teaching assistants,...) are invited to think about their achievements and aspects of themselves that they can model for their students (or equivalent). The discussion then broadens to include all kinds of role modeling that the participants deem needed in the contexts they belong to and who (other than the participant themselves) can model these. The results of these discussions can be used by each participant individually to reflect on their own practice and to support discussions with other stakeholders, such as program coordinators or managers. |

Reflecting on Your Role Modeling With a Scientific Approach Uppsala University, Sweden Having a role model can be beneficial, e.g. for students benefits include higher self-esteem, motivation and academic achievement. Teachers are potential role models for their students. Others are potential role models in different contexts, such as a project leader. What is it that they model? If we consider whether there is intention and awareness of their own role modeling, how does it affect each teacher's reflection on what students may copy from them?

| 3:30pm - 5:00pm | WS06: Electrification, AI and the Future of Engineering Education Location: Room E (9 - Numancia) Humanities Faculty Session Chair: Carlos Sanchis, MathWorks, Spain Session Chair: Dr. Blanca Quintana, UNED, Spain The electrification megatrend is driving the replacement of less efficient technologies and helping us achieve a more sustainable future. With the switch to power electronics, batteries and electric machines of all sizes, it has become commonplace to deploy more and more embedded devices to control them. At the same time, with more access to data and computing power than ever before, machine learning is providing us with new ways to develop algorithms. When combined with ever more electronic and more programmable machines, we are facing the opportunity and the challenge to build increasingly autonomous systems. How can engineers architect such complex systems, iterate quickly and validate their designs along the way? For many companies across industries, from renewable energies to mechatronics or transportation, the answer is Model-Based Design. In this presentation, we will look at how they are leveraging MATLAB® and domain-specific tools, with Simulink® as an integration platform to model multi-domain systems, validate their behavior and deploy code for them. With such convergence of mechanics, electronics and software, how must the skills of future engineers evolve? We will share examples of how leading universities around the world are adapting their curricula to include more active learning with professional tools to help their students gain interdisciplinary skills and systems thinking. |
