Professional Development for EYW: Engineering Design & Analysis

Engineer Your World hosts several action-packed professional development institutes in Austin during the summer. Delivered by experienced consulting teachers, these sessions ask new teachers to alternate between wearing their “student hat” and “teacher hat” as they work their way through the entire course in just two weeks. The Engineer Your World professional development institutes:

    • Engage teachers in authentic engineering practices;
    • Enhance pedagogical content knowledge for project-based instruction;
    • Facilitate collaborative strategic planning; and
    • Establish the communities of practice that enable successful implementation.

The EYW: Engineering Design & Analysis professional development institutes will be held in-person at The University of Texas at Austin’s J.J. Pickle Research Campus. Dates for 2024 sessions will be posted early in the new year, so check back here then!
