DESCRIPTION:\n\nProf. Allison Gonsalves (Dept. of Integrated Studies in Edu
 cation) is pleased to invite you to a presentation by visiting scholars:\n

 va Silfver\, Umeå University\n		 \n\n\nEngineering education: Knowledge and 
 Identity Perspectives on Project Work\n\nEngineering is a highly acclaimed
  profession in society: if any structure needs to be built\, engineers are
  the ones to be consulted. However\, the idea of what an engineer is\, is 
 constantly under construction too. Engineering has become a more heterogen
 eous profession with increasing expectations on ‘soft skills’\, such as te
 am-work and creativity. Project work is one example of an educational prac
 tice introduced with the goal of developing such soft skills and moving le
 arning outcomes beyond the mere acquisition of content knowledge\, in orde
 r to better reflect authentic professional activities. The aim of our rese
 arch project is to explore how project work re/produces engineers and engi
 neering knowledge. In our presentation we will give examples of two sub-st
 udies within the project: one focused on possibilities for learning in int
 eraction during project work\; and one focused on students’ gendered ident
 ity negotiations.\n\nMonday\, June 18th\, 2018 |  11 am-1 pm | Room 233\,
