Engineering Education Research Briefs 2.0: Scholars and Scholarship (Drs. Jeremi London and Monique Ross (Founded By Dr. Ruth Steveler))

Join us in our conversation with Dr. Esther Matemba about engineering education from an international perspective. We discuss the variance in topics and priorities based on the context and how important it is for us to consider context when defining and describing research. We also explore Dr. Matemba’s experience with coalition building on the continent of Africa through the effort called the ENGINEERING EDUCATION RESEARCH NETWORK AFRICA (EERN-AFRICA). We were inspired by her words and hope you are too.

“Give everyone a chance...Be open to other people’s topics even if it is not your context.” 

What a season it has been! After completing our first season as hosts of Research Briefs 2.0, we spent some time reflecting on the themes of the season and what and who inspired us this year. Thank you for listening! We look forward to sharing more scholars and scholarship with you in the Fall. In the meantime, go back and listen to the amazing scholars we hosted this year. Be safe and rest up!

This episode rebroadcasts Dr. Ruth Streveler’s June 2020 conversation with Dr. Jeremi London – who shares her fascinating research on ‘impact’.

“I started to look at what makes studying impact so difficult and realized that it was very value-laden and it’s a discussion on what is something worth.  And discussions on worth are always really tough to have.” - Jeremi London

This two part episode is a continuation of our conversation with Dr. Cindy Atman. In part one, she shared an intriguing history of engineering education and the role of centers in establishing the field (Pt. 1). But in part two she shares the wisdom she has gained related to leadership in engineering education. If you are: 1) considering establishing an engineering education department;  2) engaging in the arduous process of looking for engineering education departmental leadership; or 3) considering a leadership role in engineering education yourself this episode is a must. It was an absolute joy to engage with Dr. Atman. I hope you enjoy her wisdom, quotes, and insights as much as we did. 

“Centers are an important way to address specific challenges that can be contextualized, …ways to connect with other parts of campus or institutions, …or a national resource that everybody can draw on.”

What does it mean to be an anti-racist engineering education researcher? To help us think about that question, Dr. Ruth Streveler interviews Dr. James Holly, Jr., Assistant Professor of Urban Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education at Wayne State University in Detroit MI.

This episode was hosted by Dr. Ruth Streveler, produced by the School of Engineering Education at Purdue, and features music composed by Patrick Vogt.

Join us as we discuss engineering education in Australia, with a focus on the career path of Dr. Anne Gardner, an Associate Dean at the University of Technology Sydney. Dr. Gardner shares her journey into engineering education, her current research projects, leadership roles, and the focus areas of the engineering education community in Australia. We also discuss collaborations with scholars in Australia and the upcoming engineering education conference - Austaliasian Engineering Education (A2E2).

 [When teaching for conceptual change we have] “been focusing on … convincing people with evidence and wondering why they weren’t convinced.  …  [Instead of asking: ‘How can I convince people with evidence?’ the better] question might be, ‘How do I help people feel like they belong to this community?  How can they trust … that I’m telling them the truth?’ “  - Ruth Streveler, July 2021

 

This conversation between Dr. Ruth Streveler and Dr. Emily Dringenberg took place during the development of a socially-embedded framework for learning.

This episode is a rebroadcast of Dr. Ruth Streveler’s interview with Dr. Nadia Kellam, who continually pushes the boundaries of “appropriate” research topics and methods.  Learn more about narrative methods, and I-poems, and hear about Nadia’s courage to keep doing what feels right, even in the face of strong opposition by trusted mentors.

“I don’t know where … [the courage to do the risky thing] came from; [I am sure part of] it was a mom that was a feminist and pushed us to do good things and be authentic to yourself. … [With] some of those experiences … I started to learn that it was okay to do what felt right to me and to take that risk.” - Nadia Kellam

How can being an artist and a poet impact one’s life as a researcher? What are the common threads between seemingly disparate communities of practice? Chanel Beebe, artist, writer, social entrepreneur, engineer, and Doctoral Candidate in the School Engineering Education at Purdue shares her experience and thoughts about these questions.

This episode was hosted by Dr. Ruth Streveler, produced by the School of Engineering Education at Purdue, and features music composed by Patrick Vogt.

This episode we talk with Dr. Julia Williams about her pathway to and through engineering education and more specifically about her experience with change in engineering education.

“I saw opportunities for change all around me. And as I struggled, sometimes, to make change happen; other times hitting it out of the park maybe. I thought, gee there are things that we do to make change happen that aren’t really written down anywhere.”

In this episode we talk with Dr. Elizabeth Litzler about her pathway to and through engineering education. We talk about the impact of program evaluation, and the barriers and liberation associated with aligning values with research methods, more specifically participatory action research.

“It [Participatory Action Research, PAR] usually has a bit more of a democratic feel to it. So, your research methods are really collaborative and the community members or the participants are really like co-researchers.”

Dr. Ruth Streveler interviews Dr. Julie Martin, Associate Professor of Engineering Education at the Ohio State University who discusses her research to promote diversity and inclusion in engineering.

The Engineering Education Research Briefs podcast is produced by the School of Engineering Education at Purdue and features music composed by Patrick Vogt.

Given the changing landscape of the academy across the U.S. driven in large part by the attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion, unrest on campuses, and the legislation targeting high education we were moved to invite an activist in engineering education - Dean Riley to talk about how to activate the activist within us. We had a candid conversation about living an activist life but also some inspiring words to disrupt the paralysis so many are feeling given the current climate in the academy. Join us as we hear Dean Riley’s life of activism and her call to us all to tap into our inner activist.

This episode rebroadcasts Dr. Ruth Streveler’s conversation with Dr. Shawn Jordan, who shares how he uses storytelling principles in his research in an effort to broaden participation in engineering.

Watch this practice in action!

“One of the key points of storytelling, and particularly oral tradition storytelling, is that they believe whenever you tell a story, even if it is someone else’s story, that part of you is in that story because it’s being told through your lens.  And that, to me, is one of the things is so transformational as both a research approach as well as a teaching approach, because if we can get underrepresented students not only learning but telling stories of people in engineering pathways then that might help shift their identities as well.” - Shawn Jordan
