Dear ASEE K12 and Precollege Engineering Division Members,
Well, the word is out now! The College Board is seeking a Director for Engineering Curriculum & Content Development. I hope that you will explore what they are doing merely to inform yourself if not consider applying for the position if it’s of interest to you. More information is available about the position here: https://careers.collegeboard.org/viewjob.html?refnode=107331.
K12 division member Liesl Hotaling wants to let everyone know that the Marine Technology Society Journal invites submission of original manuscripts for a special issue that reflects the diversity of settings that support marine technologies education. The Special Issue “Blue Futures: Educating the Next Generation” will be the July/August 2015 issue of the MTS Journal, with manuscripts due in February. Please review the attached call for more information or contact the Guest Editor, Liesl Hotaling (lieslhotaling@yahoo.com) or the Managing Editor, Amy Morgante (morganteeditorial@verizon.net).
As you know, I have established some committees that were discussed at the Division’s business meeting. Today will be my final call for members to join a committee. I hope you will take the time to find a place to serve this year! The attached document describes the committees in varying levels of additional detail and names the committee chair(s) and any known members to date. This is a great way to serve your division and gain some great committee work that can be listed on your CV or resume. We encourage participation from classroom teachers, university faculty and staff, members of industry, and informal educators – everyone really. Simply email me at stacy.klein-gardner@vanderbilt.edu to express your interest and I will get you signed up.
