The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) will hold its 8th Annual K-12 Workshop on Engineering Education, "Collaboration Can Improve Engineering Education," June 25, 2011, at the Vancouver International Convention Centre, in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

This day-long program for teachers and engineering educators from both Canada and the United States will provide a fast-paced, interactive, results-oriented overview of engineering education for the K-12 classroom. Attendees will discover valuable best practices, new contacts for collaboration, and the latest take-away tools for effective teaching about engineering education.

Those interested in submitting a proposal are invited to submit now. The deadline for submission is March 18, 2011, by 5PM EST.

Note: Workshops should prominently feature hands-on classroom activities, provide take-home materials for participants to use in their own classrooms and be designed to engage participants in interactive exercises. Workshops that offer tangible material to attendees, in addition to written material, are specifically solicited.

An overview of the workshop is available here.
