Diff-Eq blog, a blog devoted to math and science education, picked up on APIE2 and the transformation proclamation here.  So did the Southern Growth Policy Board here.

At Olin College today, at 5:15 pm, attendees at the Summit on the Engineer of the Future 2.0 signed the “transformation proclamation” to promote change in engineering education in harmony with the practice of engineering in the 21st century.

The transformation proclamation is the founding document of a larger grassroots Alliance for Promoting Innovation in Engineering Education (APIE2).  APIE2 seeks to connect the dots between different individuals, institutions, and organizations in the furtherance of principled change in engineering education.

Individuals including students, educators, and friends of engineering education who wish to read and possibly sign the document can go to the online petition site gopetition.com here.

For more information about the transformation proclamation or APIE2 contact Sherra Kerns or Dave Goldberg.
