[Iefac.list] ASEE Publishes Newly Expanded Engineering: Go For It!

[Badiru Adedeji B Civ AFIT/ENV]

IE Colleagues,

This is either a gross oversight or a mega slight on our profession.  This
needs to be addressed urgently with ASEE.

Dear CIEADH Colleagues,

If you follow the link egfi-k12.org <http://egfi-k12.org/>  mentioned in the
article below, you will be appalled to find that industrial engineering is
not listed among the FIFTEEN different engineering disciplines. They include
agricultural, architectural, manufacturing, and even ocean but no IE.

Perhaps a response to ASEE is in order?

Thanks

9-bc56&l=016-b04&t=c> press release (9/10) reported that "the newly expanded
eGFI -- Engineering: Go For It (egfi-K12.org <http://egfi-K12.org/> ), a
multi-media exploration of engineering for middle and high-school students,
has just been published by the American Society for Engineering Education
(ASEE)." eGFI includes a magazine that is available both "in print and
online [and] opens up the world of engineering with profiles and features on
an array of engineering, disciplines, opportunities for discovery, and
careers; a regularly updated Website for students; and a Website, blog, and
bi-weekly electronic newsletter for math and science teachers." The release
noted that "particular emphasis is placed on attracting women and
under-represented minorities to engineering," and that "along with the
magazine, eGFI provides a video-rich, interactive Website for students that
is updated regularly." Another Website geared towards teachers
"(teachers.egfi-k12.org <http://teachers.egfi-k12.org/> ) shows ways that
engineering can bring excitement and challenge to the classroom with lesson
plans and activities, many of them standards-based."
