Dear Colleague,
We are seeking exemplary pieces of courseware for our annual international awards competition called The Premier Award for Excellence in Engineering Education Courseware.
Our definition of courseware includes the technology-based materials that faculty have developed to support their engineering learning environments. We believe that our thorough peer review process, equal in rigor to a research journal review, has been successful in highlighting and rewarding the efforts of faculty members working on improving engineering education.
We would be pleased to have you participate and also ask you to pass this announcement on to other interested colleagues. Please see the call for submissions below. Thanks.
Joe Tront
Editor, Premier Award
